Description
Charles Eames and his wife Ray were pioneers in modern design, transforming the visual character of America through their work in architecture, furniture, textile design, photography, and film. Their innovative approach, which integrated craft and design, and used modern materials such as plywood and plastics, had a lasting impact on middle-class American living. The Eameses' contributions to design are showcased in this book, which covers their furniture, architecture, and other projects. From the Eames Lounge Chair to their work on the Case Study Houses project, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the Eames repertoire and its revolutionary influence on modern architecture and design. With its unique blend of design, history, and insight into the creative process, this book offers a fascinating look at the life and work of Charles and Ray Eames.
