Eames Lounge Chair
Charles & Ray Eames, 1956
"Why don’t we create an updated version of the old English club chair?" With this question, Charles Eames sparked the creation of the Lounge Chair—a design process that spanned several years. The goal was to combine unparalleled comfort with exceptional craftsmanship, reflecting the extensive experience and insights Charles and Ray Eames had gained from previous projects. Launched in 1956, the Lounge Chair redefined the armchair: lighter, more refined, and more contemporary than traditional club chairs, it also introduced a swivel base for enhanced comfort. These innovations helped establish it as one of the most recognized and iconic designs in modern furniture.
History and Design
The Lounge Chair is available in two sizes: classic proportions and a slightly larger version. Leather and fabric options, along with various wooden shells and bases, can be freely combined, making it simple to create a Lounge Chair perfectly suited to any interior and taste.
Craftsmanship and Sustainability
Since the 1950s, production has remained faithful to the original manufacturing techniques, while materials have evolved to reflect modern standards. European wood (except for palisander), water-based shell lacquers, recyclable V-Foam cushions, olive leaf–tanned leather, and 95% recycled aluminium highlight a commitment to sustainability. Covers are removable for cleaning or replacement, ensuring long-lasting quality. Above all, the Lounge Chair’s enduring design remains its greatest contribution to sustainable living.


Endless Combinations
With a curated selection of materials and colours from the Vitra Colour & Material Library, the Lounge Chair can be tailored to create unique, harmonious compositions that complement any space.
