Alvar Aalto Medal

Alvar Aalto Medal

The Alvar Aalto Medal was established in 1967 by the Museum of Finnish Architecture and the Finnish Association of Architects (SAFA). The Medal has been awarded intermittently since 1967 when the medal was created in honour of Alvar Aalto. The award is given in recognition of a significant contribution to creative architecture. The award is often made at the Alvar Aalto Symposium, held every four years in Jyväskylä, Aalto’s home town.
