Description

Alvar Aalto is one of the most important figures in design and architecture of the 20th century. He created his own style inspired by man and nature. Aalto believed that good design should be a part of everyday life and created versatile, sensitive products to improve daily life. He never indicated how his glass objects were to be used, wanting users to decide their purpose for themselves. The undulating, fluid and organic shapes of the objects in the Aalto vase collection recall the thousands of lakes that punctuate the Finnish landscape. The glassblowers at manufacturer Iittala still handcraft these legendary vases of serene beauty. The Aalto vase is available in several heights and comes in a range of colours. Since its presentation in 1937 at the Exposition Universelle in Paris, the Aalto collection has become a true masterpiece.

Alvar AALTO

Born in Kuortane in 1898, Hugo Alvar Henrik Aalto is Finland's most famous architect, town planner and designer, and one of the pioneers of organic design. After studying architecture at the Technical University of Helsinki, he organised exhibitions and travelled around Europe, from Italy to Scandinavia. In 1923, he opened his own architectural practice in Jyväskylä and married Aino Marsio, who soon became his closest collaborator. In 1935, the Aalto couple founded the Artek company. Plywood and glass are his materials of choice for a design that is both functional and seductive, with organic forms. A prolific and innovative designer, his creations are recognised the world over, from the Tea Trolley to the Pendant Lamp luminaires, not forgetting the chairs with their L-shaped legs, which allow the foot to be attached directly to the tabletop and which he called "the little column". Alvar Aalto drew inspiration from nature and abstraction to create his designs, using innovative techniques and natural materials. These products had to satisfy his demand for quality and durability, so that they would symbolise "the modern culture of the home". His studies enabled him to create buildings for which he designed the furniture himself. In 1952, he remarried the architect Elissa Mäkiniemi, with whom he worked until her death in 1976.
