A visual biography of Aino and Alvar Aalto, who designed some of the 20th century’s most iconic objects.
Aino and Alvar Aalto together founded Artek and created some of the 20th century’s most famous objects and buildings. Through letters, documents, drawings, and family photographs, Aino and Alvar’s grandson tells the stories of their life together, in Finland and abroad, drawing on many never-before-published letters they sent to each other and to family, friends, and colleagues, up to Aino’s death in 1949. The first monograph to specifically examine and celebrate Aino and Alvar’s life and work as a shared endeavor, this personal and intimate look into the unconventional lives of one of the 20th century's most influential design couples has been warmly and accessibly written by Aino and Alvar’s grandson, who has drawn on the family’s largely unpublished archive, including personal letters, snapshots, and sketches.
