Eames - office chair on casters, medium back, base - polished aluminum, fabric - orange, ZMD19

Eames

Originally designed in 1958 by Charles and Ray Eames, the Eames Aluminum Group Chair at management height remains a benchmark of refined simplicity and ergonomic performance. Its sleek profile and taut sling upholstery create a supportive “sitting pocket” that gently adapts to the body’s contours—offering comfort without excess bulk.

With its signature aluminum frame, available in polished or powder-coated finishes, and a variety of elegant upholstery options, this chair seamlessly integrates into modern offices, conference rooms, and sophisticated home workspaces. Whether you’re making decisions at the desk or collaborating in a meeting room, the Eames Aluminum Group Chair combines timeless design with everyday functionality.

New approach

Eames Aluminum Group represents a major technical achievement by Charles and Ray Eames. Departing from the traditional concept of a chair with a solid shell, the Eameses instead stretched a continuous piece of upholstery tightly between two sleek aluminum side ribs. This innovative approach created a firm, flexible “sitting pocket” that subtly conforms to the body’s shape, offering ergonomic support without the need for bulky cushions.

Two Heights. One Icon

The Eames Aluminum Group Chair is available in two tailored options: Management Height for streamlined, task-focused support, and Executive Height for elevated back support and presence. Both share the same refined silhouette, ergonomic seat-back suspension, and iconic aluminum frame—designed by Charles and Ray Eames to deliver enduring comfort and timeless style.

Design

Originally commissioned as outdoor seating for industrialist J. Irwin Miller’s home, the Eames Aluminum Group has been in constant demand ever since. Its minimal profile and sculptural lines make this family of seating ideal for both formal and casual environments. The collection includes adjustable management chairs, executive chairs with extended backs, and side chairs with or without arms—many featuring an optional tilt-swivel mechanism for added comfort. Lounge chairs, supported by a sleek 4-star base, are particularly well-suited for living rooms and reception areas. Designed with both elegance and utility in mind, the Eames Aluminum Group remains a timeless solution for modern seating needs.
