Alvar Aalto Houses
During the course of a career spanning more than fifty years, Finnish architect and designer Alvar Aalto (1898–1976) designed nearly one hundred single‑family houses. This book presents twenty‑six of Aalto's innovative residences‑from small summer homes and postwar standardized housing to large housing complexes for industrial commissions‑built between the 1920s and the 1960s.
