Brud Studia — Aluminiowe Skos, 2022

This chair is cold, hard and very heavy. It is inspired by communist-era war memorials known as ‘spomenik’ and made with very simple and direct intentions – sanding, slotting and hammering. Its construction method is the language of the finished object and cast aluminium pieces are positioned together without the need for nails or screws. The Aluminiowe Skos chair is the manifestation of designers Andy Kelly and Mitchell Zurek and their ongoing exploration of brutalist, primitive design methods with contemporary and absurdist ideologies.
