The 101 Copenhagen Brutus Lounge Chair: A Brutalist Masterpiece in Contemporary Design
Presenting the Brutus Lounge Chair by 101 Copenhagen, a manifestation of the raw and audacious Brutalist architectural movement that surged in the mid-20th century. Brutalism, recognized for its raw, unrefined aesthetics, is beautifully channeled into a modern-day seating solution in this collection.
Within the expansive Brutus collection, one can discover not just the lounge chair, but also a dining chair, stool, and coffee table, all masterfully cast in lightweight fibre concrete. This specific material choice guarantees enhanced portability, while also gracing each piece with a singular, textured surface. The hand-painted finish that adorns every item adds another layer of uniqueness, making each one stand out.
However, the Brutus Lounge Chair distinguishes itself with its sublime design synthesis. Retaining the characteristic, bold architectural lines intrinsic to Brutalist design, it introduces a gentler curve in the back and armrest. This careful integration ensures that while the chair emerges as a sculptural statement, it also promises unparalleled seating comfort.
Crafted under the visionary guidance of celebrated designers Kristian Sofus Hansen & Tommy Hyldahl, the Brutus Lounge Chair from 101 Copenhagen stands as an ode to the undying charm of Brutalist design, flawlessly tailored to the nuances of contemporary interiors.
The 101 Copenhagen collection is a range of timeless design objects, featuring a shared inspiration: the Japanese approach to materials, design, and technology. The designers behind the brand have successfully merged this Asian influence with the traditional Scandinavian approach to design and style. This approach has resulted in a unique and holistic creative process that embodies freedom, dynamism, and minimalism.

Both my purchases were excellent quality, priced at a very reasonable level and delivered in a matter of days, despite me being the other side of the world. There is simply no way to describe that kind of a Company - expect amazingly good.
