Alvar Aalto: The Complete Work (Alvar Aalto)

Rating:
Summary: Aalto's Bible
Review: This books contains almost all the architectural work of the finnish, in a highly detailed and careful way; full of plans and photographs and with texts of one of his closest collaborators and biographer. This 3 volume set displays chronologically the Aalto's evolution, first a as house designer, later as a public buildings master and finally as a city planner, always setting the primary interest in the people rather than in the modernist and rationalist eficient, accurate and fast way to do the architecture. A lection of style and responsability for any architect.
