Packed with both insightful text and gorgeous images, The Story Of Eames Furniture ($130) is a unique book that can only be described as the benchmark reference guide to what is, arguably, the most important and influential brand of furniture of modern times. It reveals in unbelievable detail just how Charles and Ray Eames, alongside with their team of hugely talented designers, worked on creating pieces that still sit atop the bestseller lists. A fabulous book that not only documents how these landmark designs in furniture were created, and the subsequent way their reputation spread, it also tells us how modernism became an established force in offices and homes across the globe.
