The DKR Wire Chair is rendered in a new range of vibrant, summer shades. The Eames Sea Foam colourway, for example, comes from the archives of the celebrated design duo, while more contemporary hues such as Sky Blue and Citron make for perfect placement on the terrace or patio of a modern home.
First produced in 1951, the DKR features a wire seat atop the iconic “Eiffel Tower” base, with the chair sharing its inspirational sculptural qualities. Pair with the Soft Seat Cushion for a deeper sense of comfort.
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”.
