Alvar Aalto's Muuratsalo Experimental House (1953) in Jyväskylä is a Modernist laboratory on an island in Lake Päijänne. Built as a summer retreat, it served as a testing ground for brick patterns, glazing methods, and solar heating concepts — one of the purest examples of architecture as research.
