Based around a design first introduced in 1968, the Vitra Eames Contract Table is presented here in a tall configuration, well suited to contemporary bar-style kitchen or dining spaces. The high platform allows for the use of stools or casual leaning, while the generously proportioned surface space makes the table an inviting space from which to host food and drinks.
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”.
