Charles and Ray Eames were an influential husband-and-wife design team who significantly shaped modern design during the mid-20th century. Charles (1907–1978) had a background in architecture, while Ray (1912–1988) was an artist. Together, they created iconic furniture pieces, such as the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman, known for their innovative use of materials like molded plywood and fibreglass. The Eameses' multidisciplinary approach extended beyond furniture design to architecture, films, and exhibitions. Their work is characterised by a harmonious blend of functionality, simplicity, and aesthetic appeal, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to inspire designers worldwide.
