In an attempt to portray Aalto’s work in an original light, this exhibition opens with Aalto’s Paimio Sanatorium, the heroic key work of this Functionalist period in the late 1920s and early 30s. Extensive presentations of Paimio and the Villa Mairea are supplemented by a chronological cross section of his principal architectural works. Many furniture designs are included in this book, as well as elevations and detailed drawings for many of his projects.
