That the famous designer couple Charles & Ray Eames not only conjured up real icons in seating furniture, which shaped the design world, I will prove to you today with the 'Eames Storage Unit'.
In 1949, the designers developed a novel system of free-standing, multifunctional shelves, which, similar to the Eames House in California built at the same time, were consistently constructed according to the principles of industrial series production. A basic idea that influenced many subsequent designers and creators.
The new colour composition, carefully coordinated with the Dutch designer Hella Jongerius, gives the 'ESU' a fresh, contemporary expression without neglecting the spirit of the 40s and 50s.
A versatile piece of furniture with lots of charm, which has found its place in my living room like no other.
