The Vitra Eames Lounge Chair is perhaps one of the best-known creations of Charles and Ray Eames and is now available in this all-black version. The shell in black ash, the deep black leather and the carefully chosen details such as aluminium parts in pitch black give the chair an elegant and exquisite look. Two different sizes, classic and new, further add to the chairs adaptability, catering for different body heights.
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”.
