tried to overcome the inherent problems associated with the design of
residential spaces. This book presents ten apartment blocks and two students
dormitories designed by Aalto and built in Finland, Sweden, Germany, Switzerland
and the United States between the 1920s and the 1960s. Among them are Baker

Alvar Aalto: A Gentler Structure for Life:
To Alvar Aalto life, art, architecture, and creativity were inseparable from
everyday work. When developing ideas or researching a design challenge he moved
as easily in the world of natural sciences as he did in the world of art. This
remarkable book celebrates the 1998 centenary of Alvar Aalto's birth. It is not
the most comprehensive book on his work, but it is without question the most
sumptuous and poetic. 23 projects from different decades are featured, ranging
from private houses to public buildings.<P>The text, written by Marku Lahtti,
director of the Alvar Alto Museum, intelligently complements the photographic
genius of Maija Holma, whose bold images capture the finest details of Aalto's
structures and interiors. Works include Finland Hall, House of Culture, Helsinki
University of Technology, Helsinki; Art Museum, Aalborg, Denmark; Villa Mairea,
Noormarkku; and Aalto's own house in Helsinki., Architecture ; General, Alvar

Alvar Aalto 1898-1976:
Im Rahmen der ""kleinen Reihe Architektur"" wird sein komplettes Schaffen vor
biographischen Hintergrund dargestellt und sein Werk komplett und chronologisch
aufgelistet.
Alvar Aalto (1898-1976) ist einer der bedeutendsten Architekten Finnlands. Mit
seinem Werk hat er das zeitgenössische, architektonische Denken seiner Zeit
nachhaltig beeinflußt. Als Vertreter des plastischen Stils wurde er bekannt
durch seine großzügigen Wohn-, Zweck- und Schulbauten. Nüchtern und rational
entwarf er strenge Linien und klare Formen, an Originalität fehlte es ihm
unterdess nicht. Vielmehr brach er auf geniale Weise mit den gängigen
Vorstellungen und Traditionen Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts.
Später fließen immer mehr organische Formen in seine Architektur ein. Aalto
macht sich auf besondere Art die naturgegebene Umgebung zu Nutzen, was zu seinem
Markenzeichen wird. In Helsinki, das bis dato fest in der Hand diverser
Oldschool Architekten war, gewann er 1927 erstmals einen Wettbewerb und plante
daraufhin die Viipuri-Bibiliothek in Wyborg. Schnell machte er sich einen
internationalen Namen und gemeinsam mit seiner Frau Aino Marsio nahm er
zahlreiche Projekte in Angriff. Auch als Raumgestalter und Designer war er
erfolgreich, - so sind bis heute die von ihm designten Gebrauchsgegenstände und
Möbel nach wie vor populär. (2004. 96 S. m. zahlr. meist farb. Fotos u. Zeichn.)

This book is a unique comparative study of two of the greatest figures in modern
architecture - Le Corbusier and Alvar Aalto. By assessing the historical,
personal and intellectual influnces of their attitudes to nature and the
creative direction of their work, this study offers a new understanding about
the diversity at the heart of their modernism. Through an analysis of the
architects' own writing about their ideas and philosophies, a better
understanding is gained of their ideas for urban living and by looking at their
most widely known work, the authors analyse the architects' intentions to build
nature into the heart of their architecture. The authors argue that there are
many similarities between the attitudes towards nature held by Le Corbusier and
Aalto, and that these similarities had an important place in the generation of
their architecture., Architecture ; Individual Architect ; History - General,

Gullichen, Kairamo, Vormala: Architecture 1969-2000:
Kristian Gullichsen, Erkki Kairamo and Timo Vormala have created over the years
a partnership grounded on individual differences and on a fundamental agreement
on what should be and can be, today, the mission of architecture. Each one of
their executions is the description of a small adventure, as well as a familiar
place, steeped in recollections and expectations. Whether it be an industrial
plant, a town centre or a public housing district, located in a city centre, a
suburban district or along the seashore, each design proves that to express an
idea what is needed is not rhetorics but clarity. The book ranges from the first
less-known buildings of the seventies, still bound to the prefabrication theme,
up to the latest projects for entire city districts having a strong urban drive,
transiting through the production of the eighties, in which the classic themes
of modern architecture, from Le Corbusier and Alvar Aalto to Soviet
constructivism, are revisited., Architecture ; Individual Architect, Gullichen,

Lucien Herve, Katalog zur Ausstellung 'Lucien Herve: Zwischen Fotografie und

Fo:
An einem Dezembertag des Jahres 1949 schoss der Fotograf Lucien Herve in
Marseille 650 Fotos von Le Corbusiers Unite d'habitation. Diese kongenialen, von
einem starken Formalismus geprägten Kompositionen beeindruckten Le Corbusier so
sehr, dass er Herve schrieb: 'Monsieur, Sie haben die Seele eines Architekten
...'. In den folgenden Jahren begleitete Herve Le Corbusier als eine Art
Hausfotograf bei all dessen großen Projekten mit der Kamera. Außerdem arbeitete
er für Marcel Breuer, Jean Prouve, Oscar Niemeyer, Richard Neutra und Alvar
Aalto und wurde so mit seinen zumeist knappe Bildausschnitte wählenden,
kontraststarken Schwarzweißaufnahmen zum Chronografen der Architektur der
Moderne., Fotograf - Fotografin ; LeCorbusier ; Photographie /Bildband ;

Ever since the fabulous Fiestaware comeback of the 1980s. retro tableware has
been popular with collectors and mainstream magazines alike. Illustrated with
dramatic original photography by Thomas Stewart, Modern Retro Table Style

sophistication of 1970s style, and with the funkiness of 1960s pop art thrown
in. The text focuses this stylish tableware through the prism of its time, as
Madeleine Marsh encourages owners to live and eat with their designer classics
and thrift-store finds -- you'll soon be pulling a Verner Panton chair up to an
Alvar Aalto table to eat your breakfast with Sergio Asti's space-age flatware.,

Gullichen, Kairamo, Vormala: Architecture 1969-2000:
Kristian Gullichsen, Erkki Kairamo and Timo Vormala have created over the years
a partnership grounded on individual differences and on a fundamental agreement
on what should be and can be, today, the mission of architecture.
Each one of their executions is the description of a small adventure, as well as
a familiar place, steeped in recollections and expectations. Whether it be an
industrial plant, a town centre or a public housing district, located in a city
centre, a suburban district or along the seashore, each design proves that to
express an idea what is needed is not rhetorics but clarity.
The book ranges from the first less-known buildings of the seventies, still
bound to the prefabrication theme, up to the latest projects for entire city
districts having a strong urban drive, transiting through the production of the
eighties, in which the classic themes of modern architecture, from Le Corbusier
and Alvar Aalto to Soviet constructivism, are revisited. , Architecture ;

Aalto:
Finnish architect Alvar Aalto (18981976) was not only influenced by the
landscape of his native country, but by the political struggle over Finland's
place within European culture. Aalto turned to ideas based on Functionalism,
subsequently moving toward more organic structures, with brick and wood
replacing plaster and steel. He also designed buildings, furniture, lamps, and
glass objects. Contains approximately 120 images, including photographs,
sketches, drawings, and floor plans Introductory essays explore the architect's
life and work, touching on family and background as well as collaborations with
other architects The body presents the most important works in chronological
order, with descriptions of client and/or architect wishes, construction
problems and resolutions The appendix includes a list of complete or selected
works, biography, bibliography and a map indicating the locations of the
architect's most famous buildings

Living in Finland:
The country of thousand lakes is also a country of beautiful architecture and
interior design: modern Finland is a traveler's secret, offering charming
hotels, B&Bs, and restaurants tucked into sophisticated cities like Hanko and
Helsinki-one of the art nouveau capitals of the world. Amid natural beauty,
Finns live well, with their own unique style: this new Living In volume takes
readers inside city homes built by Alvar Aalto and into the lake-country
cottages decorated with touches of Marimekko and Toikka. Living In Finland also
means enjoying culinary specialties like caviar served with creme fraeche,
crayfish dishes, and more. This look into Finland's style speaks to travelers,
to those interested in the heritage of contemporary design, and to
Finnish-Americans who will rediscover their own traditions in this
sumptuously-illustrated book.

1000 Chairs:
The ubiquitous chair in all its shapes and forms (TASCHEN's 25th anniversary
special edition) More than any other piece of furniture, the chair has been
subjected to the wildest dreams of the designers. The particular curve of a
back-rest, or the twist of a leg, the angle of a seat or the colour of the
entire artefact all reflect the stylistic consciousness of each era. From Gerrit
Rietveld and Alvar Aalto via Verner Panton to Eva Zeisel; from Art Nouveau to
International Style, from Pop Art to Postmodernism, the phenomenon of the chair
is so complex that it requires a reference work as comprehensive as this to do
it full justice. They are all here: Thonet's bentwood chairs and Hoffmann's
sitting-machines, Marcel Breuer's Wassily chair and Ron Arad's avant garde
armchairs. The book, a slightly abbreviated version of our classic title 1000
Chairs, devotes one page to each chair, displayed on its own as pure form, with
biographical and historical information about the chair.

Skandimodern:
Unberührte Landschaften, Menschen im Einklang mit der grandiosen Natur, helle
Sommernächte und klirrender Frost - das ist Skandinavien. Dem entspricht
skandinavisches Design: es verbindet sich mit Namen wie Alvar Aalto, Arne
Jacobsen und Mette Lange, und es steht für zeitlose Modernität, geradlinige
Eleganz und guten Geschmack. Stilvolles und dabei behagliches Wohnen und
Einrichten mit klaren, sinnlichen Formen und natürlichen Materialien wird in
Schweden, Dänemark, Finnland und Norwegen großgeschrieben. Eine Entdeckungsreise
durch Häuser und Wohnungen im Norden Europas, die - jenseits von falscher
Landhausromantik - Lust macht auf skandinavisches Design. (2004. 192 S. m. 13

Essen - Tage, die die Stadt bewegten:
Im 20. Jahrhundert ist viel in Essen passiert. Es gab einige bewegende
Ereignisse, die das Leben in der Stadt nachhaltig prägten: sei es die Hochzeit
von Bertha Krupp mit Gustav von Bohlen und Halbach oder die Anlage der Gruga und
des Baldeneysees durch Arbeitslose, der spannende Kauf der
Folkwang-Kunstsammlung oder die Eröffnung der Warenburg. Es gab auch sehr
schwere Zeiten: Die Bombardierung Essens im Zweiten Weltkrieg hatte alle
Bemühungen um Modernität und Wachstum zu Nichte gemacht. Doch aus den Trümmern
bauten die Essener ihre""neue""Stadt mit dem höchsten Rathaus Deutschlands, der
ersten U-Bahn im Revier, dem weitgerühmten Musiktheater des Finnen Alvar Aalto

Die formale Grundlegung der modernen Architektur:
In einer Zeit, die längst die geschichtliche Dimension der modernen Architektur
erkannt hat, setzt Eisenmann auf die Theorie als einzige Option, der drohenden
Historisierung etwas Wirksames entgegenzuhalten. Anhand ausgewählter Bauten von
Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, Frank Lloyd Wright und Giuseppe Terragni analysiert
er die Merkmale allgemeiner und spezifischer Form, deren Zusammenspiel er als
Grundlage architektonischer Erfindung und Komposition ausweist.
Werner Oechslin situiert Peter Eisenmanns 1963 in Cambridge (England)
abgeschlossene Dissertation im Kontext der damaligen englischen
Architekturdebatte. Er charakterisiert die Arbeit als Versuch, aus der
Geschichte herauszutreten und zu formalen Gesetzmäßigkeiten zu gelangen. Darin
wird aus heutiger Sicht der Ausgangspunkt des theoretischen und praktischen
Werks von Peter Eisenmann erkennbar. (2005. 269 S. m. 265 Abb.)

Log Houses of the World (Hardback) - Olsen, Richard:
ISBN: 0810957469 Published: Oct 2006 Format: Hardback Pages: 240 Since the late
1800s, a surprising number of the most celebrated architects, along with their
artisan-builder counterparts, have transformed the popular notion of the simple
pioneer log cabin into a supremely crafted work of high-art architecture.
Examples can be found everywhere from the skyscraping mountain ranges of New
York's Adirondacks to the sparkling fjords of Norway, and well beyond. Despite
the pedigree that comes with having been designed by a famous architect, not to
mention their typically spectacular locations and profound sense of warmth and
overall comfort, these houses have yet to receive the popular recognition,
critical and otherwise, that they deserve. Many of the world's most renowned
Modern-era architects have designed log houses, including Eliel Saarinen, Adolf
Loos, Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, R. M. Schindler, Richard Neutra, and John
Lautner, among others. These examples, most never before published, are gathered
here along with log homes by other world-famous figures of the design world,
past and present, such as Gustav Stickley, Lars Wahlman, Robert A. M. Stern, and
Peter Zumthor. Brief Description: Many of the world's most renowned Modern-era
architects have designed log houses, including Eliel Saarinen, Adolf Loos, Le
Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, R M Schindler, Richard Neutra, and John Lautner, among
