Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
The Eames chair is considered a classic of modern design, but until now no single volume has fully presented the work of this husband-and-wife team. From 1941 to 1978, Charles and Ray Eames and their office of top designers helped revolutionize American style. Their furniture for home and office was meant to be honest and beautiful but readily available through mass production. Every one of the over 200 projects of the Eames office, including the lesser-known film and exhibition projects, is documented here, using drawings, plans, models, photos, and graphics. Consequently, this is the definitive catalog of the Eameses' work, presented as a year-by-year chronology without critical assessment. It will be the essential starting point for all future study of the important Eames contribution.

Kurzbeschreibung
This volume is the most complete catalogue of their studio ever produced, the book examines in considerable depth every project, more than 200 in all, produced by the Eameses and their office of topflight designers from 1 941 to 1 978. A stunning assembly of drawings, plans, models, period photographs, film stills and graphics has been drawn from the office archives, which are now preserved in the Library of Congress. The entries range from the early plywood-molding experiments and the wartime work on plywood splints and aircraft to the industrialised mass-produced furniture for home and office; epitomised by the now-classic Eames chair, an icon of twentieth-century design. Also presented in depth are their renowned films and exhibitions, such as Mathmatica, A Computer Perspective and the 1 964 IBM Corporation Pavilion at the New York World's Fair, which forever influenced exhibition design and introduced modern technical and scientific concepts to millions of people.

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is an excellent survey of the work of the Eames studio. It provides a chronological survey of the furniture, films, exhibits, and other work of the studio. It even provides a listing of the Eames staff at each point and time. Lavishly illustrated, it provides photographs of furniture, exhibits, and stills from the over 100 films produced by the Eames's. Highly recommended as the one book you must have about their work.

A stunning visual record of a great American design team
20. Oktober 2001
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is THE book about Charles and Ray Eames. Beautifully printed and designed and with more than 3500 photos to explore the work, year by year, of these two famous designers. The range of work is amazing, furniture (domestic and commercial) films, exhibitions, architecture, books even toys. I have a set of their 1952 House of Cards, a deck of fifty-four playing-card size cards that can be interlocked to create three dimensional structures, a very simple idea beautifully conceived.
If I have a criticism it is that the book does not have an index and that makes refering to it rather frustrating.
I think the book easily reflects the joy and stimulation that Charles and Ray Eames got out of the creative process.
***FOR AN INSIDE LOOK click 'customer images' under the cover.
2005 REVIEW NOTE Many of the pages in the book are devoted to the short films Charles and Ray created, you can get thirty-five of these on a wonderful six DVD box set 'The Films of Charles & Ray Eames' (ASIN B0009S2K92) they are available individually but cost a lot more than the box.

The Definitive Text
13. April 2001
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
An exceptionally comprehensive year-by-year summary of the work of the Eames Office from the early 1940s to the late 1970s. Covers everything equally -- from wartime plywood experiments and herman miller furniture to toys, exhibitions, and, of course, films. A must for anyone interested in Eames design. Full of hard-to-find information and photos of rarely seen items.
