The duo

Charles Eames was born in 1907 in St. Louis, Missouri, while Ray Kaiser (later known as Ray Eames) was born in 1912 in Sacramento, California. Both studied at the famed Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan, where Charles served as head of the industrial design department. In 1941, Charles and Ray began working together on experimental furniture designs, using innovative materials and manufacturing techniques. Their breakthrough came in 1945 with the "LCW" (Lounge Chair Wood), a revolutionary plywood chair that combined comfort and aesthetics. Charles and Ray Eames were a visionary duo whose collaboration resulted in some of the most iconic pieces in the history of design. With an emphasis on functionality, aesthetics and durability, they designed furniture that was as impressive in form as it was in function. Their pioneering use of materials such as curved wood, fiberglass and metal gave their designs a unique and recognizable character.

The Eames Lounge Chair

One of Charles and Ray Eames' most remarkable creations is the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman, a masterpiece known for its extraordinary comfort and refined aesthetic. The perfect combination of luxury and ergonomics, this chair has become a timeless symbol of modern design. The Eames brand is also responsible for the famous Eames Plastic Side Chair, which made innovative use of plastic to create an affordable yet stylish seating solution.
