The DSR Eames is based on the original Eames Fiberglass design – the first industrially manufactured plastic chair designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1950, and is now made from recycled post-consumer plastic. Since, the chair has become a design icon, and is now available in a wide range of finishes.
The chair is ideal for dining rooms and living spaces alike, allowing you to either choose chairs that can blend in or stand out due to the variety of finishes on offer. This chair is part of the Eames collection of shell chairs.
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”.
