Aalto's early career runs in parallel with the rapid economic growth and industrialization of Finland during the first half of the twentieth century and many of his clients were industrialists ; among these were the Ahlström-Gullichsen family.

It could be said that Aalto's international reputation was sealed with his inclusion in the second edition of Sigfried Giedion's influential book on Modernist architecture, Space, Time and Architecture: The growth of a new tradition ( 1949 ), in which Aalto received more attention than any other Modernist architect, including Le Corbusier.

Aalto's furniture was exhibited in London in 1935, to great critical acclaim, and to cope with the consumer demand Aalto, together with his wife Aino, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl founded the company Artek that same year.

To this day, it is regarded as the most astute theoretical analysis of Aalto's architecture ever made, being concerned not so much with formal analysis or historical chronology but rather with a structuralist analysis ( and in this regard he gives reference to philosophers Michel Foucault and Louis Althusser ) of Aalto's works in terms of the themes that can be said to have generated them ; such as typology, urbanism and nature.

Aalto's career spans the changes in style from ( Nordic Classicism ) to purist International Style Modernism to a more personal, synthetic and idiosyncratic Modernism.

Aalto's wide field of design activity ranges from the large scale of city planning and architecture to interior design, furniture and glassware design and painting.

The headquarters of the University of Jyväskylä are considered to be Aalto's masterpieces.

Other notable Constructivist designs of Shchusev were the Ministry of Agriculture or Narkomzem in Moscow ( 1928 – 1933 ) and the Institute of Resorts in Sochi ( 1927 – 1931 ), considered to be a major source for Alvar Aalto's Paimio Sanatorium.

Church of Muurame is of Alvar Aalto's design.

Since Aalto's death in 1976 the company has sold design objects by other Finnish designers, such as Juha Leiviskä and Eero Aarnio, as well as Vitra furniture.

This building was the first building of Aalto's redbrick period.

Following Aalto's death in 1976 his office continued to operate under the direction of his widow, Elissa, completing works already to some extent designed.

* There's also a cottage designed by Alvar Aalto, though it is not listed in most Aalto's biographies.

He had read his poetry with musicians as early as 1951, and his entire career has been characterized by radical experiments with the form and presentation of his poetry.

These early experiments were evidently not altogether satisfying to Patchen.

Lavoisier also did early research in physical chemistry and thermodynamics in joint experiments with Laplace.

This was apparently confirmed by some early independent experiments, but it was incorrect.

Cosmological perturbation theory, which describes the evolution of slight inhomogeneities in the early universe, has allowed cosmologists to precisely calculate the angular power spectrum of the radiation, and it has been measured by the recent satellite experiments ( COBE and WMAP ) and many ground and balloon-based experiments ( such as Degree Angular Scale Interferometer, Cosmic Background Imager, and Boomerang ).

Skeat “… in at least three cases and probably in all, in the form of codices " and he theorized that this form of notebook was invented in Rome and then “… must have spread rapidly to the Near East …” In his discussion of one of the earliest pagan parchment codices to survive from Oxyrhynchus in Egypt, Eric Turner seems to challenge Skeat ’ s notion when stating “… its mere existence is evidence that this book form had a prehistory ” and that “ early experiments with this book form may well have taken place outside of Egypt .” Early codices of parchment or papyrus appear to have been widely used as personal notebooks, for instance in recording copies of letters sent ( Cicero Fam.

Reports on these early experiments usually refer to dubnium as hahnium.

Many early experiments found that any modification of the apparatus that can determine which slit a particle passes through will reduce the visibility of interference at the screen, thereby illustrating the complementarity principle: that light ( and electrons, etc.

Ritter's experiments were an early precursor to what would become photography.

NASA planners invented the term extra-vehicular activity in the early 1960s for the Apollo program to land men on the Moon, because the astronauts would leave the spacecraft to collect lunar material samples and deploy scientific experiments.

Various experiments at electrically amplifying the vibrations of a string instrument date back to the early part of the twentieth century.

Since the early twentieth century, quantum theory has proved to be successful in describing accurately the physical reality of the mesoscopic and microscopic world, in multiple reproducible physics experiments.

He became known for his early predictions about the properties of the electrical particles trapped around the earth, which were partly verified by later discoveries in satellite experiments.

Catalan historian Xavier Diez report that the intentional communal experiments pioneered by Warren were influential in European individualist anarchists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries such as Émile Armand and the intentional communities started by them.

Nucleus transplantation experiments in mouse zygotes in the early 1980s confirmed that normal development requires the contribution of both the maternal and paternal genomes.

By the early 1980s, the radical experiments of early 1970s-era fusion gave way to a more radio-friendly sounds of smooth jazz.

In early 1942, prisoners at Dachau concentration camp were used by Rascher in experiments to perfect ejection seats at high altitudes.

Although the neuroscience is in its early stages, many of its findings have, effectively, been tested in ordinary classroom experiments.
