Eames
Charles & Ray Eames have a major role in the world of modern architecture, furniture, art and film. Charles and Ray designed award winning furniture which expanded upon the wood molding inspiration of Alvar Aalto. Ray Eames began as an abstract expressionist painter and has a painting in the Whitney Museum permanent collection.
Herman Miller has become synonymous with “modern” furniture. George Nelson became creative director and brought in contemporaries Charles & Ray Eames, Alexander Girard, and Noguchi to produce a legendary furniture collection.
