MODERN STYLE

The late 19th and early 20th centuries saw sweeping social change and major scientific advances — both of which contributed to a new aesthetic: modernism. Rejecting the rigidity of Victorian artistic conventions, modernists sought a new means of expression. References to the natural world and ornate classical embellishments gave way to the sleek simplicity of the Machine Age. Architect Philip Johnson characterized the hallmarks of modernism as “machine-like simplicity, smoothness or surface [and] avoidance of ornament.”

Early practitioners of modernist design include the De Stijl (“The Style”) group, founded in the Netherlands in 1917, and the Bauhaus School, founded two years later in Germany.

Followers of both groups produced sleek, spare designs — many of which became icons of daily life in the 20th century. The modernists rejected both natural and historical references and relied primarily on industrial materials such as metal, glass, plywood, and, later, plastics. While Bauhaus principals Marcel Breuer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe created furniture from mass-produced, chrome-plated steel, American visionaries like Charles and Ray Eames worked in materials as novel as molded plywood and fiberglass. Today, Breuer’s Wassily chair, Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona chaircrafted with his romantic partner, designer Lilly Reich — and the Eames lounge chair are emblems of progressive design and vintage originals are prized cornerstones of collections.

It’s difficult to overstate the influence that modernism continues to wield over designers and architects — and equally difficult to overstate how revolutionary it was when it first appeared a century ago. But because modernist furniture designs are so simple, they can blend in seamlessly with just about any type of décor. Don’t overlook them.

CB/MD Chandelier in Brass, Porcelain Glass Handmade by Andrea Claire Studio
Located in Los Angeles, CA
The MED.V1 Luminaire is a genre-defying mid size fixture with 3 radiating brass arms, hanging at a slight tilt, like a soul-surfer riding a wave. Gently balancing on the arms are 1 or 2 coral inspired decorative cast porcelain shapes called “clouds”. Each cloud comes in standard bisque or coral red finish, or they can be special ordered with hand over-glazes to achieve variegated color and texture. There are 3 hand-blown glass diffusers with Opal & Alabaster, created to represent the white water of cresting waves. Special order glass can also be finished with three rolls of glinting silver leaf, or Opal and Grey Venetian optic twist. The MED.V1 has a customizable diameter of between 26”-32” and it is the mid-sized configuration in the Cloudbreak Luminaire Collection. This fixture is ideal for dining tables, bedrooms, sitting rooms, and dressing areas. It’s great in combination with the other configurations in the collection for a more impactful statement. It’s unique textures and sea inspired themes will make any space feel special and elevated. Named after Fiji’s famous “Cloudbreak” surf spot, this collection takes cues from the wild colors and shapes of the corals that create these incredible waves. Our cast porcelain clouds mimic the ends of the Stylaster species of coral, which is common in Fiji. The glass diffusers reveal swirls and white- water like patterns and the sea themed etched metal completes the flow of an otherworldly interplay of texture, light, and shadow.
