Описание: Alvar Aalto (1898–1976) made a unique modernist mark. Influenced by both the landscape and the political independence of his native Finland, he designed warm, curving, compassionate buildings, wholly set apart from the slick, mechanistic, geometric designs that characterized much contemporary European practice. Whether a church, a villa, a sauna, or a public library, Aalto’s organic structures tended to replace plaster and steel with brick and wood, often incorporating undulating, wave-like forms, which would also appear in his chair, glassware, and lamp designs. An adherent to detail, Aalto insisted upon the humanity of his work stating: “Modern architecture does not mean using immature new materials; the main thing is to work with materials towards a more human line.” Many of Aalto’s public buildings such as Sдynдtsalo Town Hall, the lecture theatre at Otaniemi Technical University, the Helsinki National Pensions Institute and the Helsinki House of Culture may be seen as psychological as well as physical landmarks in the rebuilding of Finland after the ravages of war. About the series Born back in 1985, the Basic Art Series has evolved into the best-selling art book collection ever published. Each book in TASCHEN’s Basic Architecture series features: an introduction to the life and work of the architect the major works in chronological order information about the clients, architectural preconditions as well as construction problems and resolutions a list of all the selected works and a map indicating the locations of the best and most famous buildings approximately 120 illustrations (photographs, sketches, drafts, and plans)

Описание: In the opinion of such diverse designers as Robert Venturi, James Stirling, Frank O.Gehry and Hans Hollein, Alvar Aalto was the greatest architect of the century. This book, published on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his birth architectural historians from Finland, Sweden, England , Germany and Switzerland focus on Aalto's work. Although Aalto was a modernist architect, he could also be considered " a secret opponent within the modern movement" for his resistance to aesthetic dogmas. In his architecture he always pursued a single goal; to create architecture that was human, that is, serving the people. This volume attempts to close the gap in the scholarship on Aalto by examining his oeuvre and his influence on contemporary architecture.
