The Eames Lounge Chair was designed to combine high-end materials with high-quality finishing, to achieve the utmost comfort. The result, a modern interpretation of the traditional English club chair. This version with Santos Palisander wood shells is the jewel in the crown of the Eames Lounge collection, the wood radiating warmth and a timeless aesthetic, built to last generations.
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”.
