The affirmation of the modernist aesthetics in Brazil involves various artistic practices, including the decoration of interiors. In general, the protagonism in the introduction of modernist design in Brazil is attributed to the swiss artist John Graz and the ukrainian architect Gregori Warchavchik, two immigrants that have contributed artistic field in the 1920s. Without denying the role of the both to promote and update the interior design in Brazil, this article analyzes the furniture design made by Gregori Warchavchik to the Modernist House of 1930, trying to show that, in its materiality, presents contradictions that are apparent deadlocks then experienced between a certain modernist ideals pursued, and concrete practices possible for its realization in the city of Sao Paulo in the early twentieth century.
