Brazilian Chairs
BRAZILIAN FURNITURE
More often than not, vintage mid-century Brazilian furniture designs, with their gleaming wood, soft leathers and inviting shapes, share a sensuous, unique quality that distinguishes them from the more rectilinear output of American and Scandinavian makers of the same era.
Commencing in the 1940s and '50s, a group of architects and designers transformed the local cultural landscape in Brazil, merging the modernist vernacular popular in Europe and the United States with the South American country's traditional techniques and indigenous materials.
Key mid-century influencers on Brazilian furniture design include natives Oscar Niemeyer, Sergio Rodrigues and José Zanine Caldas as well as such European immigrants as Joaquim Tenreiro, Jean Gillon and Jorge Zalszupin. These creators frequently collaborated; for instance, Niemeyer, an internationally acclaimed architect, commissioned many of them to furnish his residential and institutional buildings.
The popularity of Brazilian modern furniture has made household names of these designers and other greats. Their particular brand of modernism is characterized by an émigré point of view (some were Lithuanian, German, Polish, Ukrainian, Portuguese, and Italian), a preference for highly figured indigenous Brazilian woods, a reverence for nature as an inspiration and an atelier or small-production mentality.
Hallmarks of Brazilian mid-century design include smooth, sculptural forms and the use of native woods like rosewood, jacaranda and pequi. The work of designers today exhibits many of the same qualities, though with a marked interest in exploring new materials (witness the Campana Brothers' stuffed-animal chairs) and an emphasis on looking inward rather than to other countries for inspiration.

Domo Stool Geometric Accent Chair
By Larissa Batista
Located in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul
A decorative chair featuring a geometric design.
Larissa Batista began designing the Jolly Seats Collection as an artistic depiction of early-20th-century’s Cubism movement. Eventually evolving into its own language, the Jolly Seats Collection came into fruition after gaining its own individually cheerful styling. The collection, currently composed of three pieces, marks the beginning of a new chapter in artistic upholstered furniture. "The Domo stool is an emblem of geometric expression in furniture design", says the designer Larissa Batista. Allowing the piece to achieve such an iconic profile, beautifully balanced and simple shapes provide the item a unique aura while still granting the use a contemporary and wide mix of fabric and color options— novelties that offer a new and contemporary...
