Overview
Design by Charles & Ray Eames, 1950.
By Herman Miller.
Introduced in 1950, well before their time, the Eames Desk Units are emblematic of the grace and vision Charles and Ray Eames used in solving home furnishing problems. A result of work they had done for a 1949 exhibition at the Detroit Institute of Arts, the pieces reveal the "machine aesthetic" and Japanese influences important to the Eameses at the time. The wire cross supports used in the desks and storage units echo other classic Eames designs, including Eames wire chairs and wire-base tables. This new smaller desk, with open wire shelving for storage, is ideal for today's smaller technology and smaller spaces.
Modern with a dash of retro styling, the Eames Desk Unit 10 features a birch finish on the desk top and painted hardwood board in neutral or primary colors on case sides and back panels. The desk is also offered in the larger Desk Unit 20, featuring file storage and a larger overall footprint.
Select Zinc Plated or Black Anodized Zinc frame with Neutral or Primary surface color choice.

Designer: Charles + Ray Eames
A chair that looked like a potato chip. Another that resembled a "well-used first baseman's mitt." A folding screen that rippled...
With a grand sense of adventure, Charles and Ray Eames turned their curiosity and boundless enthusiasm into creations that established them as a truly great husband-and-wife design team. Their unique synergy led to a whole new look in furniture. Lean and modern. Playful and functional. Sleek, sophisticated, and beautifully simple. That was and is the "Eames look."
That look and their relationship with Herman Miller started with molded plywood chairs in the late 1940s and includes the world-renowned Eames lounge chair, now in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
