Eames chairs debut on NBC in 1956

by Brooklyn Modern | August 11th, 2008

While the Eames may be the most over-referenced designers ever, I still found these videos on their chair launch interesting. I learned that their plastic chair was the result of military helmet innovation and there is a nice part in the end of the second video where their rosewood plywood chair is assembled.

This is the rosewood plywood chair that they assemble in the second video.
