Eames Molded Plastic Chairs 3D Models / Revit See how this product can contribute to your environmental goals. Charles and Ray Eames realized their first successful, single-shell form in 1950 with the Molded Fiberglass Chairs. However, when the environmental risks associated with fiberglass production became more widely understood, the decision was made to discontinue fiberglass shell production until a more suitable material could be found. In 2001, Herman Miller reintroduced the Molded Plastic Chair in polypropylene. In addition to being 100 percent recyclable, the polypropylene shell chair's subtle matte texture offers a soft tactility as well as notable durability. Eames Molded Plastic Chairs are available as side chairs or armchairs, and in a choice of colors, including archival or new options. Armchair and side chair shells can be fully upholstered in a variety of textiles; side chair shells can be specified with an upholstered seat pad. A choice of bases rounds out your customization options.
For Every NeedCharles Eames famously said, “The role of the designer is that of a very good, thoughtful host anticipating the needs of his guests.” With the molded plastic, fiberglass, and wood shell chairs—as well as the wire chair—the Eames have created a universal response to what everyone wants from a chair: a simple, gracious form that fits any body and every place. In Every WayBorne out of Charles’ and Eero Saarinen’s early investigations molding plywood at Cranbrook Academy in 1939, and continued with Ray at the Eames studio in Venice, California, the molded chair is exemplary of the Eames iterative process and their desire to make “the best for the most for the least.” With each new form, finish, and configuration, the Eames continued to push the boundaries of what the shell chair could be: after experimenting with single-form plywood and stamped metal, they turned to fiberglass and experimented with bent wire; when fiberglass production proved unhealthy for the environment, the decision was made to switch production to a safer plastic;
and now, with advancements in safe fiberglass composition and dynamic veneer technologies, the evolution continues with the Molded Fiberglass and Molded Wood Chairs. For EveryoneThe Eames Shell Chair was designed on the principle of adaptability, offering innumerable configurations to serve a wide variety of applications and environments. It’s what makes the chair a classic worthy of museum collections—and living rooms, Laundromats, lobbies, and cafés. It’s what makes it a great first piece of furniture to buy in your twenties, that’s still worthy and relevant enough to hand down to your children 20 years later. A diverse selection of shell, base, color, and finish options enable you to create your perfect chair. Just like every person, every chair has a story.

Name: Nuria Montblanch and Ricardo Duque Location: Little Portugal — Toronto, Ontario Size: 1,100 square feet Years lived in: 1 year; After meeting in Europe and living in the UK for a several years, Nuria and Ricardo decided to move to Canada. They first landed in Nuria's hometown of Montreal and stayed just long enough to begin collecting furniture from local estate sales and markets. Many of their pieces were bought from a closing downtown convent, while the rest are mostly hand-me-downs or gifts from family. The couple love the clean lines of modern design but equally adore color and patterns. Nuria is especially drawn to textiles from places such as South America, Morocco, and Portugal—where Ricardo is from. (Image credit: Lauren Kolyn) Given their creative backgrounds—Ricardo is an architect and Nuria is a designer—it is no surprise that they have been able to pull together their new space in a relatively short period of time. Last year, Ricardo got a job in Toronto, so that is where they are presently planting roots.
It can be very easy to rush into designing a space; however, Nuria and Ricardo enjoy taking their time to source new items that are meaningful to them. They have filled some walls with bookshelves to display their large book collection and other treasured items, but are patiently waiting to find the "perfect" pieces to fill other walls and corners. (Image credit: Ricardo Duque) Our Style: We like clean, simple lines and classic, modern furniture. We also appreciate a diverse range of beautiful objects for their sculptural qualities as well as for the stories they tell. Inspiration: Modern and contemporary design along with the places we've lived in and travelled to and our different cultural backgrounds. Favorite Element: Natural light. We're on the second floor and we have big windows on the east, south, and west sides so the house is always connected to the outside. The mood of the house is constantly changing with the seasons, the weather, and time of day. Biggest Challenge: We moved to Canada a few years ago from the UK, first to Montreal and then Toronto.
Coming from tiny (mostly furnished) apartments in London, we had very little furniture and were faced with the challenge of filling our new, large space almost from scratch. Apart from a few pieces we brought from London, the majority of our house has been put together from secondhand shops, rummage sales (we got some great pieces from the Grey Nuns in Montreal, who were selling their convent to the University), and from Nuria's mother, who is a great collector herself. Most of the art in our home comes from family and friends. There is still a lot we'd like to do, all in good time. What Friends Say: There is a common reaction of amazement when they see the size of the kitchen for the first time. Some have asked us to pass on the apartment to them if we leave. Biggest Embarrassment: The printed "wood" floors—although not many people notice. Proudest DIY: We were given the 1960s teak kitchen wall system (from Nuria's uncle), which had been damaged by a basement flood where it was stored for some years.
We stripped it down and refinished it to restore it to its original condition. Biggest Indulgence: The kitchen/dining space. It is quite rare to find a kitchen this size in Toronto. We love to spend time here, whether having breakfast by ourselves, hosting friends for brunch on the weekend, or trying new recipes in the evenings. It's bright, warm, and spacious, which makes it a great space to be in at all times of the day. Best Advice: We believe that a good spatial layout and lots of natural light are the necessary foundations for a good apartment. These will inform how you interact with each other at home and how you perform your daily activities, which will ultimately play an important role on how you feel in the space. After that, it's all up to your personal taste.
