Aluminium Chair &
Soft Pad Chair
The Aluminium Chair is one of the most important
furniture designs of the 20th century. It was originally
created for a private home in Columbus, Indiana
in the US, built by the architects Eero Saarinen and
Alexander Girard in the middle of the 1950s. When
constructing the chair, Charles and Ray Eames opted
not to incorporate a seat shell and, instead, stretched
fabric or leather between two side pieces made
of aluminium. The pieces of fabric or leather were
stretched so as to be taut yet resilient.
Some of the chairs from the Aluminium and Soft Pad
Group which are ideal for office environments are
now available in dark chrome with dark chromed
aluminium parts. The seat cover comes in Premium
leather on both sides and the armrests are also
upholstered in high-grade leather. These carefully
worked materials present the well-known silhouette
of this iconic classic design in a new, contemporary
light: the Aluminium Chair Dark Chrome is discreet
and looks exceptionally elegant.
In addition to Aluminium Chairs EA 105, 107, 108, 117
and 119, the Soft Pad Chairs EA 205, 207, 208, 217
and 219 as well as the Eames Segmented Tables are
also available in dark chrome. Together, they create
a representative product range for offices and
conference rooms.
