Open Courtyard - a photo on Flickriver

Open Courtyard

            Alvar Aalto won a competition in 1949. 
Years ahead of his time...

In my point of view, the STH, resume the best of the Aalto architecture.
A simple architecture, with simple materals, organiced into a cluster, a classic renaisance resolution, probably inspired in the Aalto travel for Italy. Resolved with art any minimal detail.
The volumens inspired in functionalism, are perfectly scaled and proportionate, resolved taking the best of any material.

The hunman based Aalto architecture is even, a totat contraposition with the new world architecture based in enormous budgets and far away from the man scale and neededs.

The final result is a perfect and beautiful composition that well worth a visit!
