Atop a heavyset deep black powder-coated frame sits a perfectly crafted white high-pressure laminate surface with black edges, making for a smart, minimalist solution to home dining. The generous proportions mean that six chairs can sit comfortably to the table, while the elegant shape allows for a sense of intimacy to reign when called for. At home equally as well as a small meeting table as it is a dining table, the Vitra Eames Segmented Dining Table makes for a versatile and stylish addition to all manner of home spaces. When taking the Vitra Eames Segmented Dining Table in, one is reminded of Charles Eames's mantra that one should "Take your pleasure seriously". Also available in a Boat-shaped configuration.
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”.
