This brutalist armchair from the 1970s, manufactured in former Czechoslovakia, demonstrates a consistently architectural silhouette and bold geometry. The frame is constructed from matte, brushed silver steel, featuring wide, arched legs that provide stability and emphasize the industrial character. Eight thick, square cushions in light caramel brown synthetic leather are arranged in a precise, regular grid, with visible seams and rounded corners. The upholstery, with its matte, slightly satin finish, accentuates the modular nature of the design, while exposed steel elements and pronounced joints form an integral part of its visual language. The chair is preserved in good vintage condition—only subtle signs of use are present, such as light creases on the cushions and minimal scuffing on the frame, with no significant damage or losses.The form of this chair speaks to the uncompromising spirit of the 1970s, when experimentation with materials and innovative solutions defined the era. The regular grid of square cushions recalls the postwar fascination with public architecture, while the steel frame with exposed joints tells a story of structural honesty—nothing is concealed beneath decoration. The soft, matte upholstery tempers the severity of the metal, demonstrating that brutalist aesthetics can respond to everyday comfort as much as to formal rigor. This chair carries the voice of its time: design as a laboratory, material as a partner, experimentation as a daily gesture.The armchair could serve as a centerpiece in a living room inspired by brutalism or 1970s modernism. It pairs well with minimalist metal or glass tables, emphasizing its sculptural presence. It would also complement a geometric rug, neutral textiles, and bold color accents that highlight the caramel hue of the upholstery. In a
