A versatile heirloom, revitalized
Charles and Ray Eames designed this group of sculptural wood stools in 1960 in a number of shapes for the lobbies of the Time & Life Building at Rockefeller Center in New York City. This new shape—two compact cylinders separated by a graceful concave neck—is part of that original group.
Quintessentially Eames
“What works good is better than what looks good, because what works good lasts,” Ray Eames once said. In true Eames fashion, Eames Turned Stool does all three. The design is quintessentially Eamesian in its systems approach. The ends are standard across all versions of the stool, while the midsection of each pedestal features a unique arrangement of curves and angles.
