  • Description
    Brutalist architecture and design was born from post-World War II necessity and followed the aesthetic of the new era, offering minimalist pieces that forwent excess adornments in exchange for functionality. In most mid-century European design, there was an early emphasis on wood as it connected everyday objects to nature. This solid oak cabinet is a perfect example of this sentiment.

    In furniture design, the Brutalist movement inspired designers to create models with a look meant to project an air of strength and solidity, evidenced by this cabinet. The solid oak gives it its defining, striking look. The geometric panelling on the cabinet doors accentuates the design, with this subtle decorative element adding depth and visual interest. The craftsmanship is evident in the precision of the woodwork, reflecting the standards of furniture making at the time. Inside, the sideboard offers ample storage space and shelves. Its wide surfaces and the straight lines are also perfect to showcase the workmanship. Overall the design of this cabinet isn’t loud, it leaves the focus on the oak and the carvings, yet, it has a stately appearance. As a fundamentally functional type of furniture, this cabinet does more than serving its utilitarian purpose. Even though the design primarily aims to serve as storage space, this cabinet can meld seamlessly with any style due to its elegant sense of whimsy. The doors on the front can be opened with the help of keys, a small and charming feature. The visible screws and the not too overworked oak reinforce the Brutalist look letting the material stay in focus.

    The simple design serves the purpose of showing the understated beauty of natural material and its endless possibilities under the hands of an expert craftsman. Organic and brutalist pieces like this can be incorporated successfully into contemporary and traditional interiors alike thanks to the timelessness of wood and the sheer quality.
