Explore the groundbreaking work of Aino and Alvar Aalto, two of the 20th century’s most influential design pioneers, at Millesgården Museum. Discover their creative partnership, marked by complete equality, and their holistic approach to design, where aesthetics, functionality, and human values went hand in hand.
Admire over 200 objects from the world’s largest private Aalto collection, featuring iconic handmade pieces from the 1920s to the mid-1960s. See furniture, glassware, lighting, and prototypes that offer insight into the Aaltos’ collaboration and creative process.
Explore fully furnished room settings, including a wartime living room and a 1950s urban Finnish apartment styled by Artek, the interior design company co-founded by the Aaltos. Learn about their seamless collaboration, where architectural solutions merged with interior and product design.
See how Alvar often led the architectural elements, while Aino directed interiors and material choices. Together, they created a holistic concept – the organic, human-centered Aalto style, which became their shared signature.
Discover the wave motif, a design language evident in Alvar Aalto’s architecture, the famous Savoy vase, and Aino Aalto’s Bölgeblick glassware. Learn how the Finnish word aalto means “wave” – a symbol of their unified design philosophy.
