Abstract

Alvar Aalto approached his architectural style to modernism in search of a new concept of spatial design. He recognized however the difference between the quality of Modern and his own creative sensibility, and took distance from Modern, although Paimio Sanatorium, one of his masterworks, is regarded as a representative work of Modern. Then he changed his design method to synthesize elements of Finnish regionality in his works, while sublimating the modern spatial modeling philosophy to his own creativity. The purpose of this study is to extract the spatial particularity of Aalto's architecture, which becomes clear by examining this process.
