Alvar & Aino Aalto Design...
Dostępność: na zamówienie Hugo Alvar Henrik Aalto (1898-1976), the most important Finnish architect of the twentieth century, was also one of the most noteworthy modern furniture designers. His bentwood Paimio Chair is regarded along with comparable seating furniture by Marcel Breuer, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Charles Eames as one of the incunabula of twentieth-century design. His complete system of furniture-including stools, chairs, armchairs and a tea trolley with oversized wheels, all characterised by curving lines-was considered exemplary and acquired by the New York Museum of Modern Art as early as 1938.
