Eames House
House1949Los Angeles, United States
Charles and Ray Eames’s home and studio in Pacific Palisades (1949)—Case Study House No. 8. Furniture, collections, and daily life share one place. Visit programs available.
Two steel-and-panel boxes (dwelling and studio) face a courtyard. Industrial kit-of-parts outside; wood, textiles, folk art, and toys inside. Read it as a living laboratory more than a finished modern box.
What to look for
- Panels and frame — The relationship between the wall surfaces and the supporting frame.
- Between dwelling and studio (on tour) — Places where the boundary between work and daily life thins.
