Eames Moulded Wood Side Chair from Herman Miller

In their longstanding commitment to the Eames vision of continued exploration, refinement, and discovery, Herman Miller introduces the Eames Moulded Wood Chair—a beautiful expression of their timeless design.
Achieved with the help of today’s 3-D veneer technology, this authentic form is the result of a process that gives the veneer the flexibility it needs to be moulded into the complex curves of a single shell.

Eames Inspiration

Eames Inspiration’ was a charity auction for the benefit Operation Design’s New York Educational, which “originated from the belief that great design creates a better environment for learning.” 20 Eames chairs were re-imagined by some of today’s most celebrated graffiti and street artists, and displayed in Barneys at Madison Avenue (NY).
