Aalto in Detail: A Catalogue of Components - Hardcover

by Céline Dietziker (Author), Lukas Gruntz (Author)

For the Aalto Moment in Your Projects

This carefully curated catalog celebrates the rich detail in the work
of Aino, Elissa, and Alvar Aalto. Every support, railing, and handle is
the result of intensive formal and functional research. The authors
document 50 Aalto buildings - some well-known and others less so - and
arrange their photographs by component into 20 chapters. The result is a
rich photographic record that will serve as a source of inspiration for
every architect.

• From door handles to skylights: Aalto's infinite wealth of components
• Inspiring documentation with 400 systematically arranged photos
• Unconventionally detailed solutions with special attention paid to technical feasibility
• Also available in German (ISBN 978-3-0356-2331-4)
