Charles and Ray Eames : designers of the twentieth century / by Kirkham, Pat,author.; MIT Press,publisher.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 397-401) and index.Charles and Ray Eames, perhaps the most famous American design partnership of the twentieth century, did pioneering work in furniture and exhibition design, in architecture, and in filmmaking. Out of respect for Charles' wishes, no book on them was published while either partner was alive. In this volume Pat Kirkham interprets their careers in depth, probing the lives behind the designs and the nature of the collaboration. In researching this major book, Kirkham had full access to the Eames archive and cooperation from the Eameses' clients and associates. The result is a richly detailed study of these remarkable designers and of their work from 1941 to 1978, including a substantial reevaluation of Ray's role.

From A to Eames : a visual guide to mid-century modern design / by Whybrow, Lauren,author.(CARDINAL)826998; Jay, Tom,illustrator.(CARDINAL)430194;
Introduction -- A -- B -- C -- D -- E -- F -- G -- H -- I -- J -- K -- L -- M -- N -- O -- P -- Q -- R -- S -- T -- U -- V -- W -- X -- Y -- Z -- Timeline.An A to Z journey through midcentury modern design, perfect for any reader with a keen eye for style. Each letter delves into one facet of this enduring era of design: midcentury modern homes, interior design, graphic design, and illustration, as well as the iconic personalities. We might all recognize the names--Charles and Ray Eames, Farnsworth House, the Egg Chair, Henningsen, Elrod House, the case study houses--but what are their stories? This book delves right into the facts and does so light-heartedly. We learn of the grand inspirations, or sometimes (it turns out) the very simplest of ideas, which fueled these Goliaths of midcentury modern design. The only downside: with your newfound design-savvy, you won't be able to look at your IKEA chairs the same way again.
