How Did Eames Plastic Chairs Appear?
Charles and Ray Eames thought of these plastic chairs as dining chairs specifically designed for the 20th century home. At the time when first Eames dining chairs left the factory line, plastic was a brand new material that not only provided the designers with new opportunities when it comes to bold and sculptural shapes, but also ensured that the finished product will be lightweight and resistant to stains and water.
But, in the best practice of mid-century modern style, the Eames couple didn’t stop at functionality alone, but instead further developed their design so that it is marked with timeless elegance and style that will ensure their recognition in the vibrant world of mid-century furniture design. So, molded plastic shells were combined with characteristic stainless steel ‘Eiffel bases’ or simple slightly tapered legs made out of uncolored wood to provide an additional layer of visual interest that is rooted in the interplay and contrast of textures and materials.
