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.
