Description
Brutalism, originating in the mid-20th century, is an architectural and design movement that emerged in the post-war era, particularly in Europe and the United States. It is characterized by its raw, rugged aesthetic, showcasing exposed concrete, bold geometric shapes, and a focus on functionality and structural honesty. In the context of furniture design, Brutalism takes on a similar ethos, emphasizing the use of raw materials such as wood, and metal, to create pieces that prioritize functionality and durability
From architectural descriptions to individual pieces of furniture, materials, and colour palettes, brutalist style seems to have earned a permanent spot on the décor trend list. Constructed from robust oak, these chairs exude durability and timeless charm, showcasing the raw, natural textures of the wood. The striking geometric forms and angular lines, synonymous with Brutalist aesthetics, imbue each piece with an architectural allure, making them a captivating addition to any dining space.
The choice of oak and leather in the design of these dining chairs is both deliberate and inspired, reflecting the principles of the movement while also offering practical benefits and aesthetic appeal. The juxtaposition of the solid oak framework with supple leather upholstery creates a captivating visual contrast. The use of leather upholstery adds a touch of luxury and sophistication, while still maintaining the rugged aesthetic characteristic of Brutalist design.
