Description
In the 1960s, Belgium had a burgeoning furniture industry that produced understated but extremely well-made pieces that often favoured the Brutalist style. This Brutalist side table is a quintessential representation of Belgian design sensibilities during that period.
Belgium in the 1960s was a place where creativity and innovation flourished in the world of design. It was a decade marked by a departure from traditionalism and a strong embrace of modernist ideals. Belgian designers sought to push the boundaries of form and function, creating furniture that was not only aesthetically striking but also highly functional. The design of this side table also exudes these ideals with a clear construction made of glazed oak wood with four strutted legs and a round tabletop with a grooved indentation on the outer edge. The Brutalist movement was characterized by its bold and raw approach to design, emphasizing the use of materials in their natural state, celebrating their textures and imperfections. This approach prevents this model from looking overworked, yet, its design is still refined and showcases the artisan craftsmanship. The oak construction exudes warmth and solidity, while its Brutalist design elements add a touch of rugged elegance. One such element is the exposed joinery that is utilized as a form of decoration. However, what truly sets this piece apart is its special circular stretcher that connects the sculpted legs. This circular element not only serves as a structural support but also adds a unique visual focal point, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail that Belgian designers were known for. The design thus embraces clean lines, geometric shapes, and a sense of minimalism that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
This side table is informed by the Belgian appreciation of Brutalism, taking advantage of its best attributes. It is elemental, organic and infinitely stylish. Whether used as a coffee or side table, its sculptural appearance is sure to gather attention.
