Iconic Eames Aluminium Group Chairs
The Eames Aluminium Group Chairs are amongst the most iconic and recognisable of all modern office furniture pieces. Popular since its conception in 1958, the Eames Aluminium Group Chairs are often used in conference rooms, executive suites, hotel or building lobbies, or living rooms and dens.
Interesting then that the Eames Aluminium Group Chairs started off as outdoor furniture.
Eames Aluminium GroupEero Saarinen and Alexander Girard designed a house for industrialist Irwin Miller in Columbus, Indiana. Eero approached the Eameses with a special project and asked them to produce high-quality outdoor seating for their build. The rest, as they say, is history.
Although the mesh seating used in the original design has been updated, the intelligent combination of materials persist. Aluminium sections lend the chair both stability and lightness while the actual seat is available in either leather or Hopsak upholstery in a variety of colours.
