Il libro è una monografia dei due architetti Aino Aalto e Alvar Aalto e consiste nell’analisi delle opere dei due artisti. Alvar Aalto è un architetto finlandese (Kuortane 1898 - Helsinki 1976), uno dei più importanti dell'Europa moderna: tra le realizzazioni più riuscite il riassetto urbanistico di Rovaniemi (1945-48) e la chiesa di Riola a Bologna (1966-76). Notevole è stato anche il suo contributo nell'ambito del design di arredamento. Aino Maria Aalto è stata un architetto e designer finlandese. Nata ad Helsinki, completò la sua istruzione nel 1913 presso la Helsingin Suomalainen Tyttökoulu (scuola per ragazze finlandesi di Helsinki). Iniziò a studiare architettura lo stesso anno presso la Helsinki University of Technology e si laureò nel 1920. Quello stesso anno andò a lavorare per l'architetto Oiva Kallio di Helsinki. Nel 1923 si spostò nella città di Jyväskylä per lavorare nello studio dell'architetto Gunnar A. Wahlroos, ma l'anno seguente cambiò e iniziò a lavorare con Alvar Aalto che era da poco diventato suo marito. I coniugi Aalto trascorsero la loro luna di miele nel nord Italia. Era piuttosto comune all'epoca per i giovani architetti scandinavi andare in Italia a studiare l'architettura vernacolare e questo ebbe una profonda influenza sull'architettura scandinava durante gli anni venti, inclusi quindi i coniugi Aalto, sviluppando lo stile definito come classicismo nordico. Gli Aalto spostarono il loro ufficio a Turku nel 1927 e cominciarono a collaborare con l'architetto Erik Bryggman. Nel 1933 traslocarono ancora, questa volta per tornare a Helsinki. Gli Aalto progettarono e costruirono una casa-ufficio (1935-36) per loro stessi a Munkkiniemi, un suburbio di Helsinki, ma dopo la sua morte, soprattutto per motivi di spazio, Alvar Aalto progettò un ufficio distaccato dall'abitazione, costruito nei dintorni (1954-55). Il ruolo di Aino Aalto nella progettazione delle opere architettoniche attribuite ad Alvar Aalto non è mai stato completamente chiarito. I loro primi lavori furono piccoli edifici, come le ville estive in stile nordico classico. Tra queste spicca la villa estiva che gli Aalto progettarono per se stessi, Villa Flora, sita in Alajärvi e costruita a partire dal 1926 (poi ampliata nel 1938). Si sa che nella fase di progettazione Aino si concentrasse soprattutto nel design degli interni (come per la famosa Villa Mairea a Noormarkku del 1937-39), ma anche dell'arredamento (come per il Paimio Sanatorium del 1927-29). Nel 1935 gli Aalto, insieme a Maire Gullichsen (loro cliente per Villa Mairea) e Nils-Gustav Hahlin, fondarono la Artek, una società che vendeva impianti di illuminazione e arredamento disegnati dagli Aalto. A metà degli anni Venti gli Aalto furono i primi architetti in Finlandia ad adottare uno stile razionalista, proveniente dall'Europa Centrale. Nel lavoro di Aino Aalto questo coincise con il suo ingresso nel padiglione finlandese della Esposizione universale di New York del 1939, il cui primo premio, tuttavia, venne vinto da Alvar Aalto. Aino Aalto inoltre disegnò molti oggetti in vetro per l'azienda finlandese Iittala. Il suo più famoso bicchiere è tuttora in vendita e alcune varianti più grossolane sono state create da altre aziende (come ad esempio IKEA). Ha anche collaborato col marito nella creazione del celebre Savoy Vase nel 1936.

Since we already have a Swedish man and a Russian man in Tekken, we clearly need a Finnish woman in Tekken.

In the middle. Because Finland is in the middle.

Iku Turso

My rendition of the mythical sea creature from Finnish mythology. I was really happy to get this task! I was able to really nerd out and use my knowledge in both creature design and Finnish mythology to bring this card illustration to life. Iku Turso, like many mythical creatures have been described in countless of different ways and for my version I used descriptions and inspirations from Finnish nature and wildlife.

Done for Legends of the Deep by North Star Games.

Find me and my art elsewhere!

That bloodstained son of Tuoni / struck the man with his sword, struck fear with his hunger. / Threw him to the stream of Tuonela / to the Underworld's underlake. — Kalevala, rune 14, lines 445–8; 451-2.

My rendition of Tuonenpoika, the guardian of the Finnish underworld, Tuonela; This gore-covered son of Tuoni fishes for unwanted visitors downstream, slaying them. He is said to collect the belongings of all the dead flowing down river Tuoni.

Tuisku, 21

“I'm wearing a Marimekko Jokapoika shirt, a thrifted beret and skirt, with a Marimekko umbrella and a Moomin tote as accessories. Today my fit is inspired by the non-binary pride flag. My everyday style is a mix of feminine and masculine silhouettes, with mostly thrifted pieces. I would say my own gender identity is what inspires me most.”

illustrations and sketches for my story called ‘Lintu’ C: <3 It’s about a character called Juniper who feels very stuck in her life (the plants/vines forming around her everywhere she goes represent that feeling, I very much love nature and plants but in this story theyre not so nice - at least to Juniper.) Her life changes when she meets a bird in a mysterious forest >w< <3 

(also every time I design characters I do many alternative versions of their outfits, such a fun challenge even if I never end up using them c’: )

#illustration #character design #comic #sketch #artists on tumblr #the comic is a bit older than the rest of the illustrations - that's why Juniper has a different hairstyle c': #im planning on fitting the story in a tiny comic - I did a 2 page test of it for my illustration class c: #also 'lintu' just means 'bird' in finnish :D very creative I know >w< #lintu
