Modernist stools by Charles Vandenhove for the Résidence Lucien Brull

Designed by Charles Vandenhove for the Lucien Brull Residence in Liège, these vintage stools exemplify the Belgian architect’s modernist approach to furniture design. Conceived for intensive use within this university residence, they feature a robust structure, clean lines, and a stackable design, typical of 1960s modernist furniture.

The design prioritizes functionality without sacrificing elegance. These 1960s stools perfectly illustrate Charles Vandenhove’s architectural language, where every element is built to last. Their minimalist silhouette allows them to integrate seamlessly into contemporary interiors, as well as alongside vintage, Scandinavian, or even a vintage desk.

The pieces offered are in their original condition. Structures have been inspected, and seats are upholstered with their period Skai.
