Alvar & Aino Aalto. Design: Collection Bischofberger
In addition to being the most important Finnish Architect of the 20th century, Hugo Alvar henrik Aalto was also one of the most noteworthy furniture designers of the modern era. His complete system--including stools, chairs, armchairs, and tea trolleys--is characterized by curving line formations that were considered exemplary. His bentwood Paimio chari is celebrated in a family of furniture design that includes such luminaries as Marcel Breuer, Ludwig Mies van der rohe, and Charles Eames. In collaboration with his first wife, Aino Marsio, Aalto also designed organic, floral forms in glass. Their Savoy vase of1936, created for the hotel of the same name, is legendary, and their group of bowls designed to be combined in a formation called the Aalto Flower has often been compared to the sculptures and paintings of classical modernism.
