Summary:
Cet ouvrage, fondé sur des renseignements tirés d'archives jusqu'alors inexploitées, constitue la première vue d'ensemble de la production d'Aalto en tant que designer. Il permet de préciser le travail de l'artiste d'un point de vue structurel, sa recherche de lignes et de formes nouvelles, tout en le replaçant dans les préoccupations sociologiques qui l'ont toujours motivé. Ainsi est mise en lumière la sensibilité de cet architecte en matière de design, qui s'étend avec une rigueur et une qualité égales de l'urbanisme des grands projets au mobilier conçu pour les habiter, des fauteuils aux objets de verre, des poignées de porte aux luminaires.
