Essential Eames: A Herman Miller Exhibition

Explore the life and work of Charles and Ray Eames, the most famous couple in design.

Most known for their timeless furniture creations, their influence and innovation extended far beyond that into architecture, exhibition design, toy making and film.

Based on the book An Eames Primer, which captures the spirit and philosophy behind the husband-and-wife team, discover the seamless connection among their vast and various creative outputs in the exhibition.

With over 100 artefacts, the exhibition will showcase a number of rare and never-before-seen works and images. Highlights include original paintings by Ray Eames; a special chair designed for Pope John Paul II; interactive objects from the original Eames’ Mathematica exhibition explaining complex mathematical concepts through simple forms, the fun and educational toy House of Cards (notched cards that can be joined together to build different structures) and groundbreaking films including ‘Glimpses of the USA’ and ‘Powers of Ten’.
