Finland 1998. During the lifetime Alvar Aalto was involved in more than 500 building projects, over 400 of which were in Finland. Of the 90 projects he designed abroad around 20 were built. His design work covered all aspects of housing and the environment and he wrote and talked about architecture over a period of more than 50 years. This small book catalogues Aalto’s works, both major and minor, over a span of 65 years. At the beginning of each year there is a brief account of the most important events in his life in that year: where he went and who he met, anecdotes about work and family life. The catalogue is supplemented by quotations from Aalto’s speeches and writings and by contemporary observations both hilarious and touching, which bring Aalto as a person closer to the reader. This little book is basically a resume of his life., Finnish/ English, Year1998, Illust. B/W24, Illust. Color, ISBN 951682546X, Code 5289. Softbound, In Pristine Condition, Bibl. Bio.
