Ray & Charles Eames

The American designer couple Charles (1907-1978) and Ray Eames (1912-1988) met at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan and worked together from the 1940s. They developed their own techniques for moulding plywood, which were used in 1946 for the LCW and DCW chair series for Herman Miller. In 1950 came the fibreglass Eames Shell Chairs, and in 1956 the Eames Lounge Chair & Ottoman of plywood shells and leather, the most copied design to this day. Besides furniture they also created films, exhibitions and toys, always following the principle of making functional design industrially produced and accessible to a wide public.
