From the 1940s to the 1970s, the prolific husband-and-wife team of Charles and Ray Eames designed furniture, buildings, exhibitions, and interiors, and made films. They are perhaps best known for the form-fitting chairs that were mass-produced using the same techniques the Eameses developed in their first apartment. Taking a multifaceted approach to their multifaceted careers, this comprehensive, clothbound volume with French folds includes a filmography, making clear the pair's profound influence on the visual vernacular of the 20th century. There is culture in LA! As a kid growing up I wasn't so crazy about the modernism that the Eames represented - but as an adult in a post-modern society you can really see their charm and warmth. This books reads like a history of visual design for the later half of the 20th Century. Charles and Ray did it all - industrial design, architecture, graphics, film and of course furniture. Long before multimedia was a buzzword, these two were making magic. I only wish that the book has some of the more charming details of their lives (the Smithsonian exhibit actually had their Christmas cards). But all in all, this is a fantastic read... The bible for Eames lovers! This is a wonderful book. I have Eames furniture and love it, but only a small part of this book is about the furniture. This book discusses the art, architecture, films, "multimedia" pieces, and more created by Charles and Ray Eames. There are short tributes from coworkers, friends, and luminaries like Robert Venturi at the end. A great book!
