The authors of FInnish Summer Houses turn their attention to the residential architecture of Finnish architect and designer Alvar Aalto (1898-1976), who was among the first and most influential architects of Nordic modernism. Aalto, who is also known for his furniture and glassware, worked in a unique style that blended modernism and traditional vernacular architecture and was characterised by his use of natural materials and organic forms. During the course of a career spanning over fifty years, Alvar Aalto designed nearly one hundred single family houses. Many of them are architectural gems that illustrate his thoughts about dwelling and architecture. It was in his houses that Aalto had the opportunity to experiment with new ideas, as many of them were built for close friends.

From a house without walls to exhibition spaces in shipping containers, Shigeru Ban has constantly challenged architectural rule and expectation. In the age of the “starchitect,” he has also demonstrated an unremitting altruism in his practice: Over the course of his esteemed career, his inventive, elegant designs have been applied as much to private commissions as to humanitarian relief work at the sites of natural and man-made disasters around the world, from Kobe to New Orleans. For the Pritzer Prize jury, which chose Ban as its 2014 winner, the architect manifests “total curiosity and commitment; endless innovation; an infallible eye; an acute sensibility.

Frank Lloyd Wright's wife, Olgivanna, is famously quoted as saying that "My husband seemed to thrive on hardships." From the years 1920 to 1932 Wright's fortunes were at a low ebb; he was plagued by financial, personal, and professional setbacks, but saw the time as one of challenges instead of one of defeat. Unable to find patrons, his imagination led to visionary, often splendid, architectural conceptions that laid the groundwork for the revolutionary architecture he would build in the decades to follow. During this period he designed almost fifty projects, of which only a few were realized, but those few are seen today as among his most important creations.

Byli tandemem idealnym, choć trudno sobie wyobrazić bardziej niedobraną parę – panicz z zamożnej rodziny i syn aptekarza. Nierozłączni w pracy i w życiu przez siedemnaście lat. Rozwijając własny styl architektoniczny, upowszechniali idee awangardy, głoszone przez grupę Praesens. To środowisko o międzynarodowych ambicjach, kierowane przez małżeństwo Syrkusów i współpracujące z Kazimierzem Malewiczem, Walterem Gropiusem i Le Corbusierem, ukształtowało ich i ukierunkowało. Zanim rozwijającą się karierę spółki autorskiej Lachert&Szanajca we wrześniu 1939 roku przecięła tragiczna śmierć tego drugiego, zdążyli stworzyć ponad sto pięćdziesiąt nowatorskich projektów: od przystanków tramwajowych po gmachy najważniejszych instytucji. Tylko część udało się zrealizować.
