Description
This black brutalist highboard is a striking piece of furniture that embodies the principles of brutalist design. This style of design emerged in the mid-20th century and was characterized by its raw, unpolished appearance and use of rough, industrial materials. The highboard is made from blackened wood and has a rough, textured surface that adds to its rugged aesthetic. Its tall, rectangular shape gives it a commanding presence, and its minimalist design allows it to stand out in any room.
The doors are made from oak, and its angular lines and sharp edges contribute to its overall sense of solidity and weightiness. Despite its brutalist appearance, the highboard is also incredibly functional. Its spacious interior is perfect for storing a variety of items, from dinnerware to books and knick-knacks. This item is a testament to the power of design to create functional objects that are also works of art. Its striking appearance makes it a conversation piece in any home, while its practicality ensures that it is not just a decorative item, but also a useful piece of furniture.
Design

It is a piece of furniture that celebrates the beauty of simplicity and rawness, and its design is a reflection of the industrial age that inspired it. In conclusion, the Belgian black brutalist highboard is a unique and powerful piece of furniture that combines form and function in an impressive way.
