25 Powerful Brutalist Seats For Your Contemporary Interior
In the realm of interior design, a style that has been making a resounding comeback in recent years is Brutalism. At its core, Brutalist design embraces the charm of imperfection, eschewing the pursuit of conventional beauty in favour of a bold and confrontational aesthetic. Contemporary furniture designers have embraced the spirit of Brutalism, channelling its distinctive qualities into the creation of remarkable chairs. Crafted from materials like concrete, metal, and leather, ADORNO’s curation of Brutalist seats is marked by quality craftsmanship and ingenuity, that adds a Brutalist touch to any contemporary home.
