Charles and Ray Eames
Charles and Ray Eames , a husband and wife duo with a strong sense of adventure, curiosity and boundless passion, created a formidable husband and wife design team. Their collaboration has allowed them to take furniture to a new level. Clean and modern. Playful and functional. Sleek, sophisticated, beautiful and simple. That is what makes Eames unique, now and always.
The pair loved working to combine art and science, design and architecture, process and product, style and function. "Details aren't just details. They make the product."
This unique concept didn't come about overnight, but was developed over time.

Vitra develops products and environments
Vitra elevates the quality of homes, offices and public spaces through the power of design. Founded in 1950 and since.Product and environmental developmentRespect for the environment is expressed in every aspect of Vitra's activities: in the way we develop and manufacture our products, the way we source our raw materials and the way we organize our supply chains. New discoveries lead to further developments. Vitra believes that the environment "shapes" how we think and feel. With the power of design, we work every day to make the environment better.
Products that can be used for a long time In developing products that can be used for as long as possible, we avoid short-term trends and eliminate unnecessary elements. If all of these elements - design, manufacturing method, and materials - are not in place, the product will not be able to be used for a long time.
Materials Vitra is committed to using materials that meet human rights and environmental standards in accordance with official certification programs for sustainable and responsible sourcing. Products and materials are regularly analysed and assessed by external organisations. 46% of Vitra's suppliers are German and 96% are European. As a globally active company, we produce our products in the most resource-efficient way possible and deliver them to our customers all over the world. Cultural Activities <br>Vitra is also active in the cultural sector beyond its business activities. It invests a large portion of its profits in preserving cultural heritage in design and architecture, supporting various institutions around the world, such as the Eames Foundation, which preserves the Eames House in Pacific Palisades, California, the Alvar Aalto Foundation in Finland, and the Barragan Foundation in Switzerland.
Furthermore, the Vitra Campus, located on a vast site in Weil am Rhein on the Swiss-German border, is a one-of-a-kind experimental space for architecture and design, and a place where architecture, design and art are open to everyone on an equal footing. The ongoing development of the Vitra Campus is also a sign of our mutual, long-term relationship with the region of Weil am Rhein.
