If you're a design buff, you're already well-acquainted with the work of Charles and Ray Eames, the husband-and-wife duo behind some of 20th century's most defining architecture and industrial design moments.
The couple, who were colleagues at the Cranbrook Academy of Art before they married, worked together to create notable works in architecture, like their own California home, the Eames house. That said, arguably their most lasting contributions were to the field of mid-century modernseating design.
Eames chairs — from the cozy lounger to the sleek molded armchair —are still widely sought after today, and are continually referenced by contemporary designers.
