Charles Eames

Alongside other celebrities, Charles Eames has also become an integral part of our product line of modern classical period furniture with his revolving lounge chair and the matching ottoman modern.
Charles Eames was born in St. Louis, Missouri and studied architecture at the Washington University. In 1936 he earned a scholarship to the Cranbrook Academy of Arts (Michigan), where he would subsequently teach. His colleagues included Harry Bertoia, Eero Saarinen and Ray Kaiser, whom he married in 1941. During World War II he and his wife fabricated leg splints and stretchers made of plywood for the US Navy. For this project, they developed a new method for creating three-dimensionally molded plywood. In 1946, the first individual exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art was dedicated to him (New Furniture by Charles Eames). Charles and Ray Eames closely collaborated with the manufacturer Herman Miller, with whom they developed a very progressive, rational furniture design. Their clients included the US government and the IBM corporation.
