The creative duo
Charles Eames (1907–1978)
and
Ray Kaiser Eames (1912–1988)
transformed the visual character of America
. Though best known for their furniture, the husband and wife team were also forerunners in architecture, textile design, photography, and film. The Eameses’ work defined a
new, multifunctional modernity
, exemplary for its integration of craft and design, as well as for the use of modern materials, notably
plywood and plastics
.
The Eames Lounge Chair Wood, designed with molded plywood technology, became a defining furniture piece of the 20th century, while the couple’s contribution to the
Case Study Houses
project not only made inventive use of industrial materials but also developed an
adaptable floor plan of multipurpose spaces
which would become a
hallmark of postwar modern architecture
From the couple’s earliest furniture experiments to their seminal short film
Powers of Ten
, this book covers all the aspects of the illustrious Eames repertoire and its
revolutionary impact on middle-class American living
