    Furniture Design in Modernism: Origin and Evolution

    Modernism Furniture Design: Main Characteristics

    Modern furniture changed the focus from traditional to new, original and practical with an eye toward the future. Under the influence of Modernism, the emphasis shifted from furniture as a piece of art to furniture as a functional and accessible belonging.

    “Form Follows Function”

    -Louis Sullivan

    Modern design made a clean break from the heavy, ornate, and history-laden furniture design paradigms of the past and highlighted functionality, lightness in form, and geometrical lines and planes. A good example: Etienne Sofa by Ulivi, Made of lightness, almost as if we were flying.

    Distinguished by its preciseness and uniqueness, with the goal of being concrete, straight and comfortable.

    The light metal base with customizable details transports you to your own comfort, the result of a perfect mix of proportions, ideal synthesis of the awareness that we know where to go and of the sure conscience from where we come from.

    Modern furnishings are vibrant, light, and getting simple, straight edges. The appeal of the modern look is that it doesn’t take up too much space. All in all, furniture became “lighter” in more than one sense: through the lens of form and proportion design, material choice and space usage.

    Barnaby Sofa by Ulivi, a piece with a strong soul, at the same time light and subtle, where the balance of shapes is achieved through innovative solutions and a sober formal elegance. The seams of the cushions, or the metal that barely appears to characterize the armrests, are elements of a product designed for environments full of personality.

    Your nest, where you can stop and enjoy the welcoming and protective hug of its curved backrest. The internal part, padded with materials of various densities, actively contrasts with the comfortable perfection of its more rigid shell.

    Yes Bed by Ulivi, More than a bed, it is a comforting hug. Yes, it is the key to an intense end of the day, which reconciles and relaxes. Yes, companion within you, at peace with your soul. Yes, which comforts you with all its softness.

    modern furniture store Vancouver

    Yes, the word that can launch you towards a day in which you want to decide and be protagonist. Light, easy design, but always determined to leave a mark, without ever leaving indifferent.
