Product information
Description

Artek table 91.

Alvar Aalto first introduced the curved L-leg in 1933 and it became a standard part of Aalto's furniture pieces.

Given his importance as a designer and architect, Aalto regarded the development of the L-leg as his greatest achievement - he called the L-leg "the little sister of the architectural column". The development of the L-leg was revolutionary because it solved the problem of attaching the legs directly to the table top in a completely new way - the leg could be attached directly to the table top with screws, and the result was a solid and simple structure.

In his opinion, this revolutionary design was comparable to the architectural column developed at that time.

The designer:

Alvar Aalto (1898-1976) is probably the most famous Finnish architect and designer in the world. In 1921, Alvar Aalto obtained a degree in architecture from the Helsinki Institute of Technology and began his career as an architect. One of the most important works he got was the planning of the tuberculosis sanatorium in Paimio, Finland. This project also marked the beginning of Aalto's career as a furniture designer - in fact, this was the first building planned by Aalto to be completely furnished with furniture designed by Aalto himself, including the lighting. Other major projects completed by Alvar Aalto include the Municipal Library of Viipuri, Villa Mairea, La Maison Carré, and the Finnish pavilions for the 1937 Paris and 1939 New York World Expositions.
