VILLA MAIREA
Contemporary architecture
Read moreMagnificent summer villa built in 1939 by the famous Alvar Aalto for Mayor and Harry Gullichsen, a cut of industrialists passionate about art. Progressive and without prejudice, they were interested in modernist abstract art and utopian ideology. Alvar Aalto then had carte blanche to experiment without any restrictions and made sure that the construction would blend completely into nature. The interior of the villa was designed by Aino Aalto and now houses priceless works of art by Picasso, Braque and Modigliani.
