Roger Connah Finland : Modern Architectures in HistoryPublished by Reaktion Books | Publication date : March 2006 | ISBN : 1861892500 | PDF | 280 pages | English | 7.1 MB Buildings speak volumes, not just about their occupants or owners, but about the countries in which they exist. From colonnades to paving stones, the architecture of any building does more than simply date the structure—it celebrates the spirit of a people and a nation.From museums to schools to subsidized housing developments, Connah's Finland is an important survey of the country's architecture. Fully illustrated and with detailed examinations of many of the Finnish master architects—including Alvar Aalto—it is also a valuable contribution to the studies of modern architecture and Nordic history.
