		Three buildings established Aalto's credentials as a Modern Movement architect: the competition entry for the Municipal Library, Viipuri (1927; built 1930-35), and the Turun Sanomat newspaper offices (1927-29) and the Paimio Sanatorium (1928; built 1929-33) in the culturally independent city of Turku.
		The ceiling of the concert hall in the Viipuri Library, supposedly justified on acoustic grounds, was an experiment in sensuous wood architecture.
		Aalto started to use timber screens to relieve the severity of the otherwise white-rendered geometric volumes of the staff housing at the Paimio Sanatorium; these became external screens of larch poles joined with wicker at the workers housing at Kauttua (1937-40).

		This tendency was even clearer in the sinuous curves of the furniture and glassware in the show.

		BRIGHTEST star among the bright young architects of the 1930s was a dour-looking, dynamic Finn named Alvar Aalto.
		His TB sanatorium at Paimio, Finland, with its cantilevered decks, was a landmark in the new international style.
		Almost singlehanded he had made wood a "modern material," used it in a dazzling variety of ways—an undulating ceiling for a library in Viipuri, an undulating wall for the Finnish Pavilion at the 1939 New York World's Fair—and the tastemakers of the era all sat in Aalto's curved plywood chairs.
