Villa Skeppet is a home designed by the Finnish modernist architect Alvar Aalto for his friends Christine and Göran Schildt in Ekenäs, Finland.[1] The building was constructed in 1969–1970 and was the last as well as the smallest home he designed.[2][3][4]

Today Villa Skeppet is owned by The Christine and Göran Schildt Foundation. The building was opened for the general public in December 2020.[5]
