European Primitive Modern Collection

European Primitive Modern Collection

This collection blends rural European craftsmanship with modern clarity. Brutalist weight meets Danish ease. Mid-century modern forms are softened by honest materials, natural wear, and time-earned patina.

EUROPEAN PRIMITIVE MODERN COLLECTION
The European Primitive Modern Collection is composed for those who move through life with intention, who surround themselves with objects that carry history, texture, and restraint.
This collection blends rural European craftsmanship with modern clarity. Brutalist weight meets Danish ease. Mid-century modern forms are softened by honest materials, natural wear, and time-earned patina.

THE CONCEPTION
European Primitive Modern interiors are defined by balance: between past and present, rawness and refinement, utility and beauty. This collection was hand-selected by Blair Moore for her love of true vintage. 
From the carved wooden table lamp to the travertine forms and cabinetmaker upholstery, each piece was selected for its integrity of material and clarity of form. Every object has weight, purpose, and presence.

THE INSPIRATION
The collection draws from rural European interiors, mid-century ateliers, and the quiet strength of vernacular design. Influences span Brutalist construction, Danish cabinetmaking, French provincial seating, and the tactile simplicity of primitive forms.
Natural stones and sculptures were selected for their imperfections, veining, and geological honesty. Wood surfaces are carved, worn, and expressive, as seen in the hand-carved footstool and sculptural table lamp base. Iron and metal elements were selected to introduce strength, shadow, and depth.

THE COLLECTION
Each piece was chosen to contribute to a larger narrative of restraint and character:
A Danish cabinetmaker sofa, reupholstered in Roweam’s sand fabric and finished with a tailored slipcovered cape, balances sculptural form with lived-in softness.
Travertine side tables and a stone cube plinth introduce architectural calm and elemental weight.
French ladder back chairs and Charles Dudouyt chairs reflect regional craftsmanship and Brutalist honesty, grounding dining spaces in history and function.
Wear is not concealed. Patina is not corrected. Each surface tells a quiet story of use, material, and time.

THE PROCESS
This collection was assembled with the same reverence Roweam and Blair bring to each launch...prioritizing material truth, proportion, and longevity. 
Every piece reflects craftsmanship that values the hand over the machine, form over fashion, and permanence over trend. Natural finishes are allowed to evolve. Materials are chosen for how they age.

WHY YOU?
This collection is for those who live deliberately. For those who value restraint over excess, history over novelty, and craftsmanship over convenience.
If you are drawn to interiors that feel collected over time, where Brutalist strength, Danish modernism, mid-century clarity, and rural European tradition coexist, this collection was selected, and made for you.
