BRUTALIST STYLE

The design of brutalist furniture encompasses that which is crafted, hewn and worked by hand — an aesthetic rebuke (or, at least, a counterpoint) to furniture that is created using 21st-century materials and technology. Lately, the word “brutalist” has been adopted by the realms of furniture design and the decorative arts to refer to chairs, cabinets, tables and accessory pieces such as mirror frames and lighting that are made of rougher, deeply textured metals and other materials that are the visual and palpable antithesis of the sleek, smooth and suave. 

ORIGINS OF BRUTALIST FURNITURE DESIGN

CHARACTERISTICS OF BRUTALIST FURNITURE DESIGN 

  • Use of industrial materials — tubular steel, concrete, glass, granite
  • Prioritizes functionalism, minimalism and utilization of negative space
  • Spare silhouettes, pronounced geometric shapes
  • Stripped-down, natural look; rugged textures, modular construction
  • Interiors featuring airy visual flow and reliance on neutral palettes

BRUTALIST FURNITURE DESIGNERS TO KNOW

VINTAGE BRUTALIST FURNITURE ON 1STDIBS

The term brutalism — which derives from the French word brut, meaning “raw” — was coined by architecture critic Reyner Banham to describe an architectural style that emerged in the 1950s featuring monumental buildings, usually made of unornamented concrete, whose design was meant to project an air of strength and solidity.

Le Corbusier essentially created the brutalist style; its best-known iterations in the United States are the Whitney Museum of American Art, which was designed by Marcel Breuer, and Paul Rudolph's Yale Art and Architecture Building. The severe style might have been the most criticized architectural movement of the 20th century, even if it was an honest attempt to celebrate the beauty of raw material. But while the brutalist government buildings in Washington, D.C., seemingly bask in their un-beauty, brutalist interior design and decor is much more lyrical, at times taking on a whimsical, romantic quality that its exterior counterparts lack.

Paul Evans is Exhibit A for brutalist furniture design. His Sculpture Front cabinets laced with high-relief patinated steel mounts have become collector's items nonpareil, while the chairs, coffee table and dining table in his later Cityscape series and Sculpted Bronze series for Directional Furniture are perhaps the most expressive, attention-grabbing pieces in American modern design. Other exemplary brutalist designers are Silas Seandel, the idiosyncratic New York furniture designer and sculptor whose works in metal — in particular his tables — have a kind of brawny lyricism, and Curtis Jere, a nom-de-trade for the California team of Curtis Freiler and Jerry Fels, the bold makers of expressive scorched and sheared copper and brass mirror frames and wall-mounted sculptures.

Brutalist furniture and sculptures remain popular with interior designers and can lend unique, eccentric, human notes to an art and design collection in any home.

French Brutalist Brass Table Lamps by Max Bré, Set of Three, 1960s-70s
French Brutalist Brass Table Lamps by Max Bré, Set of Three, 1960s-70s

French Brutalist Brass Table Lamps by Max Bré, Set of Three, 1960s-70s

Located in Boven Leeuwen, NL

A set of three French Brutalist table lamps in brass and wrought iron by the artisan blacksmith Max Bré, 1960s–70s. Shaped like an old oil lamp or jug with a slender neck, each lamp has the finely ribbed, roughly modelled brass body typical of his work and a flat wrought-iron handle. A vintage lamp base in the French Brutalist tradition, ideal as a set or spread throughout the house. Design The brass bodies have a lively, irregular surface built up by hand; the flat wrought-iron handles clamp around the shoulder with two split ends. Two of the three lamps are stamped BRE and MAX on the handle; the third is unmarked, and the three were acquired together as a set. Max Bré worked as an artisan blacksmith in the Lot and Dordogne and, from the 1950s to the 1970s, made jugs, bowls, mirrors and lamps with this recognisable, handcrafted character. Because each lamp is handmade, they differ slightly from one another, yet together they form a strong ensemble. The contrast between the warm, mottled brass and the dark wrought iron makes them truly sculptural. Condition Good vintage condition with a strong, well-worn patina. The brass has dark and reddish-brown spots and light wear consistent with age; the wrought-iron handles show rust and signs of use. There are no loose or missing parts. The lamps have French bayonet fittings (B22) and old flat cords, one with an inline switch. The wiring has not been checked by us; we advise having the lamps inspected by an electrician before use and rewired if necessary. Supplied without shades. Please see the photos for details. Dimensions (each lamp, approx.): height 26 cm, diameter 12 cm, width including handle 17 cm. The three lamps differ slightly from one another (handmade). In the interior Perfect in a wabi-sabi, Brutalist or mid-century interior, but also in a French country house or among antiques and natural materials such as linen, stone and oak. Beautiful in a row on a sideboard or windowsill, with simple linen shades. Keywords: Max Bré, Brutalist table lamp, French Brutalist lamp...
