"Alvar Aalto is recognized today as one of the great masters of modern architecture. Through the innovations in form and line that were born in his furniture designs, Aalto's name has also become important in the history of design. His contribution to furniture design was among his foremost achievements in its own right, and it sowed the seed from which many of his architectural ideas sprang forth. This book is the first comprehensive illustrated book on the designs of Alvar Aalto. Articles written by experts will shed light on many aspects of Aalto's wide-ranging scope as a designer of furniture, glass and light fittings. The book also contains an illustrated catalogue of Aalto's best-known designs and their variations"--Bookjacket.
