case study #8 . ray and charles eames

case study #8 . ray and charles eames
203 Chautauqua Blvd.
santa monica, ca



the eames are an inspiring husband & wife team that designed with "attempt to state their ideas rather than a fixed architectural pattern".
ray and charles eames first resided here christmas eve 1949 til they passed.
until now, objects in the home have never been moved nor replaced.







everything catalog ordered.
a staircase normally used in ships.
a large use of industrial materials.
built on a low budget.
knick-knacks galore.
posessing the second eames lounge chair ever made.

this one goes down in the books...
one of the most inspiring things i've encountered to this day.

thanks brenden.
yay for timeless classics.
