1950's Brazilian Sideboard
About the Item
The 1950s sideboard, an attribution to Carlo Hauner stands as a testament to the visionary collaboration between Carlo Hauner (1927 — 1997) and Martin Eisler (1913 — 1977), primary designers for the iconic Brazilian furniture company Forma. Their partnership symbolizes the pinnacle of design mastery in Brazil during the 1950s and 60s, setting a standard of innovation and elegance that endures to this day.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this sideboard showcases Hauner's distinctive style and ingenuity. One of its most striking features is its five doors, each adorned with a natural straw coating. This unconventional choice of material not only adds a unique textural dimension but also reflects a deep appreciation for the organic elements of Brazilian craftsmanship.
Inside, the sideboard reveals a thoughtful arrangement of shelves and drawers, maximizing both storage space and organizational efficiency. This internal configuration is a testament to Hauner and Eisler's commitment to functionality without compromising on aesthetic appeal. Their designs seamlessly integrate form and function, elevating everyday furniture into works of art.
Inspired by their shared backgrounds—Hauner's design education in Milan and Eisler's architectural expertise honed in Vienna and Buenos Aires—the duo brought a rich blend of influences to their creations. Their frequent collaboration resulted in pieces that embodied the spirit of Brazilian modernism while also resonating with international audiences.
Together with E. J. Wolf, who played a pivotal role as the company's director, Hauner and Eisler founded Forma. This venture not only showcased their original designs but also introduced Brazilian audiences to pieces licensed from Knoll International, further enriching the design landscape of the era.
In essence, the Carlo Hauner 1950s sideboard stands as a tangible manifestation of the collaborative genius of Hauner and Eisler. Its unique combination of natural materials, meticulous craftsmanship, and functional design epitomizes the legacy of Forma and the enduring influence of its visionary designers.
