Post-War Design

Bukowskis presents a curated selection of design objects from the 1950s onwards. The emphasis is on furniture, but the range also includes lighting, ceramics and glass. Characteristics are clean lines, the interplay between form and function and the use of natural materials, steel and currently new materials such as fibreglass and plastic.

The years after WWII major changes followed, not least in the design industry. For many people, lifestyle became more relaxed, which increased the demand for functional and comfortable furniture. Several designers from Scandinavia, the USA and Italy led the development.

The themed auction, Post-War Design, features many classic and interesting design objects created by renowned designers such as Bruno Mathsson, Hans J. Wegner, Poul Kjaerholm, Eero Saarinen, and Charles & Ray Eames. Feel free to explore the entire catalogue to get inspired and participate.
