Celebrate 80 Years of the Eames Office with a commemorative House of Cards deck!

House of Cards have been used to mark special occasions throughout Eames Office history.  To honor that tradition we have captured 54 significant moments in Eames Office history to commemorate 80 Years of Design!

The deck begins with Charles’s proposal letter in 1941 which marks the start of the Eames Office and continues through to 2021 events such as the Eames Office: 80 Years of Design Exhibition at Isetan.  Each moment is noted with a rich photograph and a corresponding insert providing context.

Toys

Charles and Ray were serious about the designing of objects—from the initial brainstorming of constraints to an item’s longevity through the decades—and simultaneously, they derived many of their design processes from toys. The intrinsic qualities of toys taught the Eameses that a design could be unselfconscious, simple in its use of materials, and provoke a feeling of delight.
