Playful design for grown ups. | | | | | |
Playful design marries integrity of purpose with an imaginative bent that sets it apart from the commonplace. Jaime Hayon's new Monkey Side Table adds a sense of fun to both in- and outdoor spaces. E15's tooth-like Backenzahn and La Chance's Bolt bring an unexpected sculptural element to functional stool design. The whimsical designs of Charles and Ray Eames have endured in popularity for more than half a century. Celebrate design's less serious side. | | | Monkey Side Table BD Barcelona $1,560 | | | Eames Rocker Herman Miller $1,190 | | | Panton Junior Chair in Dark Lime, Tangerine and Classic Red Vitra $325 | | | Backenzahn Stool in Oak e15 $1,215 | | | Bolt Stool in Black La Chance $1,110 | | | “Toys are not really as innocent as they look,” Charles Eames once said. “Toys and games are the preludes to serious ideas.” With a grand sense of adventure, Charles and Ray Eames turned their curiosity and boundless enthusiasm into a broad range of creations, from toys to films and iconic furniture that still influences the interiors of today. | | | Eames® Elephant in Dark Lime Vitra $450 | | | Eames® Walnut Stool Shape A Herman Miller $1,590 | | | First conceived by Charles and Ray in formed plywood, this iconic elephant never went into production. Now manufactured in durable plastic, the design is loved by children of all ages. | | | Reminiscent of chess pieces, the Walnut Stools were created by Ray in 1960. Truly multi-functional, they became her favourite pieces and were scattered over the home she and Charles shared. | | | Eames® House Of Cards in Medium Eames Office $75 | | | Eames® Hang-It-All Classic Herman Miller $325 | | | Originally released in the 1950’s, the Eames House of Cards has been beloved by children and adults ever since. Each card depicts a different familiar and nostalgic object from the animal, vegetable, and mineral kingdoms. | | | The Hang-It-All was one of many pieces that Ray Eames designed with children in mind. Her motive was personal – Charles and Ray wanted unique pieces to give to their own grandchildren and to the children of friends. | | | | | |
