Brutalist Furniture

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.

Mid-Century Italian Brutalist Side Tables Iron-Glass-Nickel by Banci, Firenze
Mid-Century Italian Brutalist Side Tables Iron-Glass-Nickel by Banci, Firenze

Mid-Century Italian Brutalist Side Tables Iron-Glass-Nickel by Banci, Firenze

Located in Salzburg, AT

Mid-Century Italian Brutalist Side Tables Iron-Glass-Nickel by Banci, Florence 1960s The tables are very refined in design and workmanship. A nickel-plated stainless steel supporting frame is decorated with 4 rounded, solid 1.5 cm thick iron plates. These trays are suspended from the frame and have a ribbed, roughly sawn outer edge. A rectangular, nickel-plated spacer sits in the middle and the glass plate sits on it, which is secured with a large, nickel-plated ring with a ball. The glass plates are also 1.5 cm thick and have a shell decoration on the edge. This decoration is worked by pinching out and must be done by hand. This ensures that the outer edges of the coarse iron are perfectly joined to the glass edge. The nickel-plated support frame adds even more tension to the mix of materials. The design is artistic and chic, the tables can be used both in an elegant interior as a contrast and in a casual-cool area. The tables are very heavy and weigh around 40 kg per table. The table height without the ring is 44cm, the ring with the ball has a height of 8cm. For more than a century, Italian manufacturer Banci Firenze has been known throughout the world for its extensive range of innovative lighting and furniture inspired by geometry, nature and modernist architecture. Founded in 1899 by Giuseppe Banci, Banci Firenze began as a workshop in Florence, initially specializing in the restoration of glass, crystal and iron chandeliers. In the 1900s, the company developed further - Banci Firenze became a manufacturer of exquisite lighting fixtures made of hand-blown glass, hand-crafted wrought iron, bronze with gold leaf. Although the company is best known for its carefully designed chandeliers, sconces, ceiling lights and table lamps, Banci Firenze's range expanded to include other furnishings in the mid-20th century.
