Brulla is a wooden chair made by the furniture brand Miniforms. The chairs are informed by the design of 20th century Austrian chairs. Miniforms aimed to create stylistically retro chair designs that fit seamlessly into contemporary settings.
The Brulla chair includes a circular webbed seat with slanting black legs. Its legs extend to meet a curved backrest for maximum support and comfort. According to Miniforms, the chair's "defining aesthetic is given by the juxtaposition of curves and straight lines, creating a strong sense of identity and minimalist spirit." The furniture company manufactured the chair's seats from Vienna straw. The rest of the Brulla chair is made from ash wood, available in a natural ash finish, black ash, or stained walnut.
