Description

In 1949, Charles & Ray Eames developed a new system of free-standing multifunctional shelves which, similar to the Eames House that dates from the same time, were constructed strictly in keeping with the principles of industrial mass production.

The ESU (Eames Storage Unit) Shelf is reproduced here by Vitra and includes a number of configurations from one shelf to four shelves.

Vitra have collaborated with Hella Jongerius to create a new colour concept for this design classic. This version provides a more contemporary look to the original with a subtle colour palette, still celebrating the spirit of the 1940s and 1950s. The hues of grey, brown, red and orange are combined with black powder coated metal surfaces to offer a striking contrast. The feet can be levelled individually.

Designed by

Charles & Ray Eames

Charles and Ray Eames were the husband-and-wife design team who helped shape modern design as we know it. Famous for their playful yet functional approach, the Eameses worked across architecture, furniture, industrial design and even film and photography — always with the belief that good design should improve everyday life.

Their collaboration with Vitra began in 1957 and has since produced some of the most iconic pieces in modern interiors, from the Eames Lounge Chair to the Eames Plastic Chair collection. More than just beautiful objects, their designs embody a philosophy of practicality, comfort and timeless style. As Charles Eames once put it, “Recognising the need is the primary condition for the design.”

Today, Vitra continues to honour and produce the Eames’ creations, ensuring their legacy lives on in homes, offices and public spaces around the world.
