Mi personal choice would go for one of the house projects that he did…the “1923 Villa Manner” should definitively be featured. Hope to get a copy of that book!
The Villa Manner, 1923 ! His house projects are betiful!
I would love to find out more about the Saynatsalo Town Hall
I love the Aalto Theatre in Essen, Germany
me too :)
I think you should definitely opt for the 1949-1952 Säynätsalo Town Hall in Finland. It is a remarkable building, made simply with bricks but superb talent and craftmanship.
The Finnish Pavilion, both Paris (1937) and New York (1938-39)
