This book and the exhibition that accompanies it provide a fascinating addition to our knowledge of Aalto’s work as a whole. The projects presented here have been chosen from lesser-known work of different periods and were mainly designed to be built outside Finland. Here is a voyage of discovery for the reader into what is perhaps one of the most interesting areas of Aalto’s work. How unrealised designs would have turned out in reality, however, will remain an eternal question mark. Includes plans and elevations.
