Originally designed in 1956, the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman range has now expanded to include six wood types and numerous leather upholstery options. The iconic designs have endured as cornerstones of the Vitra catalogue for almost seventy years.
This latest version combines the understated elegance of dark European walnut with luxurious Vitra leather and a sleek, polished aluminium base, creating a stunning lounge chair and footstool that both leave a lasting impression no matter the setting. Timeless in style and crafted for exceptional comfort, the duo stands as a functional design made to be enjoyed for generations.
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”.
