Charles and Ray Eames
Originally developed as the case units, the ESU series is the most architectonic of Eames' designs directly echoing their famous house. Constructed from off the shelf materials, the ESUs represent Eames' continued search for good design at low cost. This example has the early leg configuration with the leg integral to the structure. This was later modified for added stability. This example represents the finest combination of materials and colors.
