Charles and Ray #Eames moved into the @eameshouse in 1949 and lived there for the rest of their lives. The interior, its objects, and its collections remain as they were in Charles and Ray’s lifetimes. The home offered the couple space where work, play, life, and nature coexisted.

The Eameses wanted their Lounge Chair and Ottoman to have the “warm receptive look of a well-used first baseman’s mitt.” Often referred to as a twentieth-century interpretation of the nineteenth-century English club chair, this seating instantly became a symbol of comfort.

Behind the Eames aesthetic stood an equally stylish couple: Charles and Ray Eames, whose artistic partnership shook up both the world of design and the conventional notion of romantic collaboration.

We are proud to announce ‘The Eames Houses: Charles and Ray Eames Residential Architecture,’ the first comprehensive sourcebook dedicated to Charles and Ray Eames’s residential architecture.

Authored by Eckart Maise, with text contributions from Catherine Ince, and forewords by Norman Foster and Eames Demetrios, the book firmly establishes architecture as a central pillar of the Eames legacy.

‘The Eames Houses’ presents all eight houses designed by the powerhouse couple between 1944 and 1955. Beautifully designed and richly illustrated, the book features both newly commissioned photography and a wealth of materials from the Eames Office’s archives – sketches, drawings, letters, and photographs – many of which are published here for the first time.

Accompanying the recently debuted exhibition of the same name, ‘The Eames Houses’ brings the couple’s human-centered approach to modernism firmly into the present.

Go to the link in bio to pre-order. Available beginning in May.

The Eames Houses is a multi-faceted architectural initiative at the Triennale di Milano during Milan Design Week 2026, presented by the Eames Office and centered on an exhibition and the debut of the Eames Pavilion System.

Developed with Kettal, the Pavilion System translates Charles and Ray Eames’ residential work of the 1940s and 1950s into a fully engineered construction system, extending their approach to prefabrication as an adaptable framework for contemporary living.

The Eames Houses draws on extensive archival research, presenting previously unseen materials from the Eames Office Archive. On view April 21–May 10, 2026, it is accompanied by a Phaidon publication—the first sourcebook dedicated to their residential architecture.

The Eames Houses

Between 1945 and 1955, Charles and Ray Eames developed a body of architectural work that approached houses as adaptable, prefabricated systems for living. This exhibition offers the first comprehensive overview of their residential architecture, including several previously unpublished projects. It also marks the launch of the Eames Pavilion System by Kettal.

The name ‘Eames’ has become inextricably linked to the idea of good design – specifically, great furniture. It’s a mark of status to have an Eames chair, and to know of the story behind the name is to know perhaps the greatest partnership in love and work to contribute to the history of design.

A married couple, Charles Eames (1907–1978) and Ray Eames (1912–1988), wanted everyone to have good design in their lives. Though the duo’s furniture designs may now be luxury products, at the time, the work was underpinned by a democratic instinct. Indeed, as the Eameses’ mission statement explained: ‘We want to make the best, for the most, for the least.' What resulted is a body of work that came to define mid-century American interiors – and far beyond.
