Available in nine colours, the DSX Eames Fiberglass Side Chair is a simple but beautiful chair, that helped to define the whole trajectory of the mid-century modern movement. With a moulded fiberglass shell and a robust metal base, the DSX combines visual lightness with structural strength. The basis of all of the pieces in Vitra’s Eames Plastic Chair collection, the Fiberglass chair is a true design icon, with the visible fibres giving the DSX its distinctive patina.
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”.
