are you also the distracted sort who love to watch endless movie streams on netflix?
well, if so, i have a film recommendation for you- eames: the architect and the painter (2011)
is about the wife & husband duo behind some of the world's most popular chairs.
they look familiar, right?
created in the 1950's to fulfill a need for furniture that
could be made inexpensively- but well, eames furniture pieces
are about as modern looking today as they were back then!
they were inseparable and everything they did was truly a combined effort of all their talents.
for example, the eames house, is a perfect combination of architecture and art.
and their office was considered a fun house by all who worked for them. LOVE!
The Eames have been such an huge influence on my decorating style. I like their streamlined yet feminine lines to their furniture, and their love of color!

I LOVED this film, caught it randomly on PBS a few weeks ago. Was floored that a former prof of mine from Tufts was in it- as an Eames paramour!! The scandal of it all.
