With its functional perfection and careful construction, timeless materials and balanced proportions, the Eames Lounge Chair has established itself over its sixty-year history as one of the most significant classics – as a product from another era that remains as relevant as ever. The high-quality Twill fabric on this version imbues the chair with cosy softness and an inviting warmth. The Lounge Chair Twill is available in the classic combination of dark-reddish Santos Palisander wood and black Twill and is marked with a corresponding label and comes with a '60 Years in Production' certificate.
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”.
