The Villa Carré
by Alvar Aalto has been bought by the Finnish Cultural Foundation. Not only did Aalto design the building but also the interior of the house, including lamps and furniture which have never been put into production as well as items from the Artek range. See the Helsingin Sanomat article here. One thing the article doesn’t say but the Safa website implies is that it will be opened to the public from the Summer of 2007 onwards.
