This nearly complete collection of Aalto's literary sketches and lectures from 1922 to 1968 expresses the architect's views on modernism, traditionalism, and functionalism, the design of housing and furnishings, city and regional planning, and technology and the quality of life. These short pieces are enriched by drawings from Aalto's travels in the Mediterranean countries and North Africa.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"Göran Schildt, a Finnish art critic ... has skillfully collected the architect's sketches and writings to compose a book of enduring authenticity and inimitable charm in which we hear Aalto's unmistakable voice.... Once again, his deeply humanistic view of people and their architecture is revealed.... a masterly selection."
- Frederick Gutheim, AIA Journal --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
