The Plywood Group of chairs to which the DCM (Dining Chair Metal) belongs, sees a neat plywood seat and backrest carried aloft a tubular steel frame, giveing the design a greater sense of lightness. In turn, an exciting tension between the two contrasting materials exists as a result of the diverse pairing of materials, with wood and metal coming together to great effect. The DCM is available in a number of different finishes, ensuring that they're a wonderful fit for a wide range of environments.
American husband and wife design duo Charles and Ray Eames have had a profound influence on the visual character of American life, producing original work within the fields of architecture, furniture design, industrial design, manufacturing and the photographic arts.
The Eames’ first partnered with Vitra in 1957 to produce some of the most iconic pieces of furniture in the history of interior design. Today Vitra continues to reflect their philosophy on design and functionality, best understood through Charles’ own words: “Recognising the need is the primary condition for the design”.
