DSW Shell Chair GRAYISH COLOR
Charles and Ray Eames were pioneers of modern design in the 1960s and 70s. This is the Eames' timeless masterpiece, the Shell Chair. By the way, "shell" means seashell in English, and this chair is composed of curved surfaces like a seashell. It was born in 1948 at an international furniture competition held by MoMA. The molded plastic chair, first introduced by the Eameses, gained significant support as the first work by an American designer to meet consumer needs. This is a faithful reproduction of the original from that era, with an integrated shell structure, making it very lightweight and durable.
<デザイナー：チャールズ＆レイ・イームズについて>
The couple, known as masters of Mid-Century Modern, left numerous milestones in all fields of 20th-century design, including furniture, architecture, film, and graphics. Charles, who was enrolled in the architecture department at Washington University from 1925, opened an architectural office in St. Louis in 1930. In the same year, he won first prize in the MoMA "Organic Interior Design Competition" with a plywood chair, jointly entered with Eero Saarinen. During World War II, he advanced plywood technology through a project commissioned by the U.S. Navy to develop splints for wounded soldiers.
