Designed by Charles and Ray Eames the Vitra Sofa Compact was originally a design intended for their own house in California, but finally went into series production. Unusually high and divided into two horizontal strips, the backrest lends the sofa an interesting profile and clearly sets it apart from the weightiness of traditional sofas. The sofa can be folded up, making it easy to transport. Made from a chromed tubular metal frame with polyurethane foam upholstery. --------- (PAR_0507_3339 - Image copyrighted).
An Eames molded plywood chair, sitting beside our house. I found this abused design classic, along with an identical but much more damaged model, in a dumpster near our house in Fort Collins during an end of semester apartment cleanup.
The former owners had drilled holes all the way through the upper and lower plywood shells to re-attach them to the base, effectively destroying any resale value these vintage pieces would have had. By doing so, they damaged the lower shell of the second chair enough so that it broke in two. I ended up giving away the steel base to a friend when we moved to Utah.
This chair is still standing, regardless of its crappy, scuffed finish and its prior mistreatment. It's cool to be able to enjoy such a unique piece of design history (Google the duo of Ray and Charles Eames and you'll understand) in our house, and the old chair was a patient and cooperative subject for last night's shoot.
The Eames House (also known as Case Study House No. 8) is a landmark of mid-20th century modern architecture located in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles. It was constructed in 1949 by husband-and-wife design pioneers Charles and Ray Eames, to serve as their home and studio.
The Eameses created this prototype for a Solar Do-Nothing Machine for Alcoa Forecast Collection in the late 1950's. It's a tabletopful of beautifully milled aluminum [naturally] pinwheels and cogs, all webbed together with tiny belts.
It's a lot of fun to watch and decipher, and though it's hard to capture in an image, it filmed really well. This is a still from a 2-min film on Vol. 6 of The Films of Ray and Charles Eames.
