The Vitra Eames Lounge Chair is a design by American design icons Charles and Ray Eames, who made pioneering contributions to furniture and industrial design during the last century. In particular, the technique they developed to form plywood and fiberglass into seat shells was revolutionary at the time and resulted in designs that are still produced and loved today. One of the absolute icons from the repertoire of Charles (1907 - 1978) and Ray (1912 - 1988) is the Lounge Chair with ottoman.
The famous Lounge Chair with ottoman was designed in 1956 as a gift for a couple friend of the Eameses. The chair was to exude a sense of warmth, "like the perfect-fitting glove of a baseball player," and provide the body with ultimate comfort. Such a design also ushered in a new era for the British club chair. Not only was the Lounge Chair lighter, more elegant and modern than the somewhat plump traditional models, but also more comfortable.
