About this title

Synopsis

This volume provides a survey of the work of the Finnish architect Alvar Aalto. Although Aalto's work was influenced by the neoclassic movement, he went on to develop his own individual form of architecture which was functionalist yet expressionist, incorporating humane aspects into his work.
