MODERN STYLE

The late 19th and early 20th centuries saw sweeping social change and major scientific advances — both of which contributed to a new aesthetic: modernism. Rejecting the rigidity of Victorian artistic conventions, modernists sought a new means of expression. References to the natural world and ornate classical embellishments gave way to the sleek simplicity of the Machine Age. Architect Philip Johnson characterized the hallmarks of modernism as “machine-like simplicity, smoothness or surface [and] avoidance of ornament.”

Early practitioners of modernist design include the De Stijl (“The Style”) group, founded in the Netherlands in 1917, and the Bauhaus School, founded two years later in Germany.

Followers of both groups produced sleek, spare designs — many of which became icons of daily life in the 20th century. The modernists rejected both natural and historical references and relied primarily on industrial materials such as metal, glass, plywood, and, later, plastics. While Bauhaus principals Marcel Breuer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe created furniture from mass-produced, chrome-plated steel, American visionaries like Charles and Ray Eames worked in materials as novel as molded plywood and fiberglass. Today, Breuer’s Wassily chair, Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona chaircrafted with his romantic partner, designer Lilly Reich — and the Eames lounge chair are emblems of progressive design and vintage originals are prized cornerstones of collections.

It’s difficult to overstate the influence that modernism continues to wield over designers and architects — and equally difficult to overstate how revolutionary it was when it first appeared a century ago. But because modernist furniture designs are so simple, they can blend in seamlessly with just about any type of décor. Don’t overlook them.

Pianist Coffee Table, Carrara Brass, InsidherLand by Joana Santos Barbosa
Located in Maia, Porto
Best Table Design at the International Design & Architecture Awards 2022 The Pianist coffee table doesn’t represent the piano but the hands of the artist, vehicle of technique and emotion. The brass blades design the shape of the four longest fingers that, on a white marble keyboard, release a melody hidden within the musical notes. The minimal approach creates contrast between the architectural lines and the exquisite noble materials. The marble coffee table with brass blades was inspired by a drawing of Paul Klee, in which the Swiss painter portrays the soul of a musician and presents only the piano’s black keys, leaving the white keys on invisibility. Acclaimed by the international press, this contemporary table represents the best of Portuguese design...
