The Religious Architecture of Alvar, Aino and Elissa Aalto

This book offers the first critical account of Studio Aalto's religious modern architecture. Aalto's ecclesiastical oeuvre is viewed as an evocative subgenre of the practice's portfolio, but its relationship to religion has eluded enquiry. Where previously discussed, the longstanding collaboration between Aalto and the Church has been put down to reciprocal expediency.
