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 catered to how people are similar to one another instead of addressing idiosyncrasies, benefitting the greatest number of people.
Herman Miller is synonymous with “modern” furniture. Creative director George Nelson recruited contemporaries Charles & Ray Eames, Alexander Girard, and Noguchi to create a legendary furniture collection.
