3) Reebok x Eames Office Classic Leather: Fiberglass

The Parchment and Sea Foam Green colorways are two of the earliest Eames Molded Fiberglass Chair color options offered when the range debuted in 1950.

4) Limited Eames Birch Mobile A
In celebration of the Eames Office 80th anniversary this year, we are exhibiting Eames Office: 80 Years of Design at Isetan’s gallery for modern and contemporary design ISETAN THE SPACE in Shinjuku Tokyo, Japan.

7) Vintage Computer House of Cards
The Computer House of Cards, designed by Charles and Ray Eames, date back to the IBM Pavilion at the 1970 World’s Fair in Osaka, Japan.
These cards were created as souvenirs for guests and were only printed once — making them tremendously rare. As such a rare item, the Computer House of Cards is an extremely desirable collector’s item for Eames enthusiasts and technology buffs around the world.
Each image exhibits part of the inner workings of a computer in stunning detail and clarity. In the time before the microchip was invented, the skeleton of computer technology looked much different. As such, these Cards are the perfect frame to capture a record of what a 1970 pre-microchip computer looked like.
8) Eames Furniture Source Book
Eames Furniture Source Book provides readers with a comprehensive overview of their furniture, which includes design milestones such as the Plywood Group, the Wire and the Plastic Chairs, the Aluminum Group, and the legendary Lounge Chair. Through detailed texts and extensive photographic material, it reconstructs the genesis of these and other pioneering designs, shedding light on the duo’s innovative use of materials and techniques, and analyzing the significance of their work within the context of their time. The Eames Collection held at the Vitra Design Museum serves as the basis of this book and includes prototypes, experiments, and study models from the Eames Office.
9) Gelato Pique x The Eames Toy – Loungewear Set
The soft and fluffy texture of Gelato Pique’s signature textile is retained, but the yarn is made
from recycled plastic bottles to create an earth-friendly product. The relaxed silhouette of the
Cowichan hoodie with a generous body width and hip-hugging length provides a sense of
security and comfort. Enjoy with a matching set of long, cozy pants.
10) House of Cards Collector’s Edition
The new 2022 Collectors Edition features rich images of “good stuff” from all editions of the House of Cards line. For the first time patterns and pictures from the original Small House of Cards, bold graphics from the Giant House of Cards, and rare images from the 1970s Computer House of Cards are curated together to form one robust deck.
