The Aalto Database is now open in Engish and Finnish, based on Dr Göran Schildt’s book Alvar Aalto. A life’s Work. Architecture, Design and Art (1994). It covers built and unbuilt work, competitions and masterplans and gives a summary of each building with a photo. Locations, dates and type are easily searchable. But I would like to see them all mapped, a kml link or drawn on a googlemap or suchlike which would be a great adddition. Also more than one illustration but a set of all illustrations and some photos of each project would be good. However as a starting point for a visit to Finland on an Architectural tour or for an Architectural student this is a great first point of call.
