ABOUT PRODUCTID 282
The console with mirror designed by Lars Goran Nilsson and Ewa Wrangel for Ateljé Glas & Trä is a Swedish modernist piece from the late 1960s and early 1970s. Crafted from wood with a vivid, matte red finish, its surface is adorned with regularly spaced, three-dimensional square blocks, each featuring a slightly raised circular accent at the center. This repeating geometric motif creates a rhythmic, sculptural effect, while the solid construction is supported by simple, straight legs and clean joinery that forgo visible fittings, emphasizing the purity of form. The console and mirror frame share coherent proportions and detailing, unified by the bold color. The console measures 45 cm in height, 116 cm in width, and 40 cm in depth; the mirror is 120 × 80 cm. The overall condition is very good, with no visible damage or significant wear, and the finish remains consistent and fresh throughout.The bold form and color of this console speak to an era when Scandinavian functionalism embraced the vibrancy of pop-art. The geometric blocks form a rhythm that blurs the line between sculpture and utility. The deep red, once reserved for daring interiors, conveys energy and modernity, while the matte surface diffuses light softly, tempering its expressive potential. This piece tells a story of a time when designers were unafraid to blend playfulness with formal discipline—an invitation to an interior that values visual strength.The console may be paired with minimalist upholstered seating in neutral tones or with a simple Scandinavian table to highlight its geometric aspect. It would perform well as a statement piece in a contemporary living room, especially when accompanied by 1970s graphics, a lamp with chrome accents, or glass decor in contrasting
