Minimalist Side Tables

MINIMALIST STYLE

A revival in the popularity of authentic Minimalist furniture is rooted in history while reflecting the needs and tastes of the 21st century. Designer Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s aphorism that “less is more” influenced the evolution of 20th-century interiors with an emphasis on function and order. This was a shift from the 19th century, with its lavish Victorian decorating, and was spread around the world through design styles including Bauhaus and brutalism.

Yet Minimalism was present in furniture design long before the clean lines of modernism, such as in the simple and elegant utility of Shaker furniture. Although the Minimalist art movement of the 1960s and ’70s had little crossover with furniture design, artist Donald Judd was inspired by the Shakers in creating his own spare daybeds and tables from sturdy wood. (Judd, whose advocacy of symmetry also informed his architectural projects, furnished his Manhattan loft with unassuming but poetic works by iconic modernist designers such as Gerrit Rietveld and Alvar Aalto.)

Understatement rather than ornamentation and open space instead of clutter are central themes for a Minimalist living room and bedroom. As opposed to Maximalism, the focus for Minimalist furniture and decor is on simplicity and considering the design and purpose of every object.

Furnishings are usually made in neutral or monochrome colors and pared down to their essentials — think nesting coffee tables, sectional sofas and accent pieces such as ottomans. And Minimalist ceramics can help achieve a decor that is both timeless and of the moment. The organic textures and personalization of handmade craftsmanship associated with these works have served as a sort of anti-Internet to screen-weary decorators. That said, while the thoughtful ergonomics of Scandinavian modern furniture, with its handcrafted teak frames, are at home in Minimalist spaces, so are the quietly striking pieces by Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa that employ industrial materials like stainless steel, aluminum and plastic.

Minimalist furniture is not for making flashy statements; it boasts subdued appeal and excels at harmonizing with any room. And, as it encompasses many different movements and eras of design, it also never goes out of style, owing to its tasteful refinement.

Side Table, Powdery DOT by Reda Amalou Design, 2017 - Glossy Lacquer
Located in Paris, FR
DOT is not a corner table. It is an invitation. A versatile experiment. First, it is about an eye hypnotized by the material. Attention is captivated by this curious magma. Mate, shiny, two-toned patina, eggshell or marble, no matter the variation, as long as there is lacquer. It requires the biggest consideration, because Dot offers as well an immersion into handicrafts. Handmade, it is a tribute to Asian craftsmanship and the patience that allows such beauty. More than 18 layers are necessary to give life to the color, for it to irradiate and exalt any interior. It declines in sixteen shades, each one of them allows to interact with the touch, emotion, memory, and mostly boldness. But DOT is mostly the illustration of an elaborated design, but still reachable. The certitude that luxury can unit with everyday life.
 DOT is not a corner table, it is an icon. DOT is available in different lacquered colors in glossy and mate finishes. It could be used as a side table or as a bedside The DOT tables are finished using a traditional hand applied lacquer. A minimum of 18 coats...
