Belgian Brutalist Sideboard in Black Lacquered Oak

Sale price£10,992.78

Sideboard, lacquered oak, brass, Belgium, 1970s.

This credenza was made in Belgium in the 1970s. It features a clear rhythm and flow established by means of a well-thought-out lay out that is utterly well-balanced. The carved geometric lines on the door panels immediately catch the eye and are the signature for this item; a design that established during the seventies when Brutalism was at his highest level specifically in Belgium. This movement is an architectural style started from the mid-20th century, aiming for raw, geometric and compromise-less buildings. Characterized by blatant concrete-skeletons with geometric patterns and Puritan materials. In decorative arts brutalism is highly represented in furniture design. The design convinces visually through its stabile construction accomplished by the remarkable repetitive sharp lines and angles. With its rectangular shape, the sideboard offers ample storage space, equipped with multiple shelves. Overall, the style is simple and understated and strongly reminds of the designs of De Coene.
