New from Yale University Press, An Eames Anthology is a collection of largely unpublished writing by Charles and Ray Eames. The book documents their professional and personal relationship, which spanned 50 years.
The Eames are arguably the most iconic couple in 20th-Century design, and the anthology includes more than 300 documents and illustrations relating to their designs including the Case Study Houses and the moulded plywood chair.
