Geraldo de Barros writing desk Unilabor Brazil 1956
Located in Roosendaal, Noord Brabant
Very nice minimalistic small writing desk designed by Geraldo de Barros and manufactured by Unilabor, Brazil 1956. The desk is made up of three main parts. The black iron frame, rosewood finished top and the drawer cabinet. The drawer fronts have the characteristic white laminated finish with metal handles. Unilabor could use these same parts to create different furniture designs, following the company's standards.
This approach was part of a methodical way of making things, and the design style was common to other factories of that time. The most unique idea was how they thought about the production process in an organised way. In very good condition with beautiful grain to the rosewood. The chair on the pictures is not included.
Literature; Brazilian Modern Design Alberto Vicente Marcelo Vasconcellos 2017, page 264-281
The most profound conceptual experience in the production of modern furniture in Brazil was led by Geraldo de Barros, a major artist of the Concrete Art movement in the country. Interested in new technologies and processes, Geraldo's career was consistently permeated with artistic experiments, particularly in photography and painting. His affiliation with design was influenced by the "gute form" principle advocated by Max Bill. Bill was the founder of the Ulm School...

Vintage Modernist Danish Desk with Hand-Painted Pattern, 1960s
Located in Warszawa, Mazowieckie
This Danish teak desk was produced during the 1960s. Uniform shape, modernist form and symmetry make it a worthy representative of the Mid-Century Modern era. The sides of the furniture was made of monolithic, single cut piece of material. The desk has three drawers and one opening cabinet with two shelves. The artistic paintings are applied to the front, in line with the geometric idea of modernist design. The turquoise pastel color, combined with off-white and black lines, effectively broke the sterility of the natural color of the wood.
This desk has been partially restored keeping it's natural patina. This is a piece of furniture finished according to the rules of the Upcycled Vintage course...
