The Story Behind a Design Icon: The Eames Lounge Chair
Some pieces of furniture are more than just functional, they become icons. The Eames Lounge Chair is one of those designs. Instantly recognisable, endlessly comfortable, and crafted to last a lifetime, it remains one of the most celebrated pieces of Mid-Century furniture ever made.

Designed in 1956 by Charles and Ray Eames, the chair was originally conceived as a modern take on the traditional English club chair, something that would combine ultimate comfort with sculptural beauty. Using moulded plywood and luxurious leather, the Eameses created a design that felt warm, inviting, and revolutionary.
