Vilen Künnapu (born 30 June 1948) is one of the most important Estonian architects of the last three decades, among the first postmodernist theoreticians and architects in the 1970s. He has worked on various buildings in Estonia and abroad.〔(Future Pavilion: Vilen Künnapu ) - 2007〕 In 2006 he became a professor at the University of Tartu. ==Style== Among the first houses Künnapu designed was the centre of the Põlva collective farm in Estonia. Designed in Künnapus early twenties it features a long staircase, inner courtyard, foyer, a small hall and back yard ran along the centre's axis resembling a Latin American ziggurat. The white walls standing on the hill contrast against the dark blue shadows of the white symmetrical prisms forming a spatial instrument that surprises with the finality of its regulation. The Collective Farm Centre in Valgu is a composition of two white buildings in the heart of the small town. The clubhouse, with an elongated plan on one side of the crossroads, has the screen of its main façade which dates from the previous century. Across the road, a white colonnade connects the office with a standard canteen of the sixties. The club is an elongated structure, but only with a primitive plan. In the foyer stands a five-metre wooden sculpture and the long colonnade of the office block is a bow to the architecture of small towns. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vilen Künnapu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
