Charles (1907-1978) and Ray (1912-1988) Eames are among the most important designers of the 20th century, and the story of the Eames Office embodies the development of visual and material culture of the post-war, modern period. The World of Charles and Ray Eames charts the history of their inspiring and prolific world and brings together key works and ideas explored at the Eames Office throughout its extraordinary history. Published to accompany a major international exhibition, this definitive monograph explores the era-defining work of the Eames Office, an active 'laboratory' for over four decades, where the Eameses and their collaborators produced a vast array of pioneering and influential projects. Drawing on new sources and unpublished material, and with newly commissioned texts by leading design experts, The World of Charles and Ray Eames brings together contemporaneous reviews and magazine articles, writings by Charles and Ray Eames themselves, personal correspondence and a thorough reference section to offer the most comprehensive overview of the designers in many years.
