This article, as the first of this kind, explores the relationship between
two Nordic master architects, Alvar Aalto and Jørn Utzon, with a focus on
the role of Aalto in young Utzon’s architectural career. As a great admirer
of Aalto, Utzon not only worked with Aalto but also studied Aalto’s work
in great detail. Based on the evidence found in archive collections and
comparative analyses of their design projects, the authors argue that
the influence of Aalto played an important role in the maturity of Utzon’s
architectural philosophy and design, especially seen in various courtyard
housing schemes, the Sydney Opera House and his thematic approach to
design encapsulated in the “Platforms and Plateaus” manifesto.
