Design Charles & Ray Eames, 1951
Powder-coated steel rod, upholstery
Made by Herman Miller
"What I admire about art is the unexpected, the originality; architecture is of course the context and the home of what we make, and fashion has a wonderful dynamism to it, reflecting the spirit of the time and what's happening right now. I would say that the best products we have done, they may exist somewhere in between these three environments, drawing from a little bit of everything." - Rolf Hay
In a new light, for the Herman Miller x HAY Collection, the Danish design house HAY thoughtfully reimagines Eames classics in new vibrant colorways. The Eames Wire Chair is now available in 4 fresh colors with an optional matching seat pad.
In 1951, Charles and Ray Eames met the challenge of making a reasonably priced, quality chair that was light yet strong. Their solution - the Eames wire chair. It featured a sculpted look, comfort, and practicality which made It an immediate hit. Today's versions remain true to the original design, materials, and detailing. They made the rim of the chair a lighter-gauge wire and doubled it for stability to achieve strength requirements, an organic shape, and cost restraints. This advance won them the first American mechanical patent for design.
* four vibrant new colors
* steel rod base powder-coated to match seat for a monochromatic look
* optional seat pad in Uni-color fabric
* outdoor safe

Eames
The primary need of the human being was an essential component of every design for Eames. They believed a design to be successful when it benefited the greatest number of people.
Herman Miller is synonymous with modern designer furniture. Creative director George Nelson recruited contemporaries Charles & Ray Eames, Alexander Girard and Noguchi to create a legendary furniture collection.
