Magnificent and practical. Two key words that would define what The Chair would become on the drawing board. Following a double curve principle, the object was entirely carried out in plywood. Charles and Eay Eames worked with thin strips of wood back in the day, along with a bike pump air compressor. From these revolutionary methods, The Chair acquires an innovative and dissonant style, ergonomic and acrobatic. A lounge chair that they chose to adapt to the silhouette of the seated human body. In the beginning, it was for the U.S. armed forces that they debuted this case study in folding wood, before submitting it for the \u201cOrganic Furniture\u201d design contest. When a powerful red colors its poetic curves, the piece becomes rebellious and accessible, marked by the disharmonic signature of a falsely classical duo.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

According to the wood essence that its parts are cut out of, the chair is tinted in natural or bright colors around 10 different shades. The LCW Chair is composed around a central support and arched, molded feet made of plywood or chrome metal according to the model. Tied together with a transversal support, the piece seems completely comfortable, luxurious, and welcoming upon first glance. In line with other modern classics without precedent, it was quickly entered into the permanent collections of the MoMA in New York, in its metallic structured version. Clearly bearing Eames\u2019 DNA, this great 20th century design classic reflects, beyond its functionality, an eternally loyal collaboration between Ray and Charles. Is it a work of art or a piece of furniture? No one really knows what to call this comfortable wooden chair.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Contemporary style is synonymous with brightness, large spaces, and restraint. This style has allowed a number of designers to yield completely unique furniture like Robin Day\u2019s 675 Chair<\/a> or GamFratesi\u2019s Beetle Chair<\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
