Alvar Aalto’s Stool 60
For an issue that celebrates all things tried and true, it’s no wonder we were so giddy to highlight the much-coveted Aalto Stool 60 — designed by Finnish architect Alvar Aalto, one of the founding fathers of modern design. “Real beauty is not a conception of form,” he said. “It is the result of harmony, between several intrinsic factors.” And perhaps no where is this harmony more evident than in this iconic stool – a piece whose functional elegance embodies that which endures the test of time.
