Description

Vitra Dar armchair plastic - Chrome.

The name DAR comes from the words Dining Height Armchair Rod Base.

Designed by Charles and Ray Eames, the plastic Eames chairs are true design icons of the 1950s. Their popularity lies in the timeless, ergonomic design and the different leg options. The original model with a fiberglass seat was the first industrially produced plastic chair. Today, the seat of the Eames chair is made of polypropylene.

Vitra launched the updated versions of the Eames chairs at the 2015 Milan Furniture Fair. As the average human height has increased by almost 10 centimeters in the past 60 years, Vitra considered it necessary to modernize the dimensions of the classic chairs. Depending on the model, the length of the legs has been increased by approximately 20 mm and the geometry of the seat has been carefully adapted. The changes seem minor, but they make the Eames seats significantly more comfortable for today's needs.

The Plastic Chairs are made of a through-dyed polypropylene, which makes the shell of the Eames Plastic Chairs a bit more flexible and has a very nice deep color.

The designers:

Ray and Charles Eames were an American designer couple whose name is known to anyone with an interest in modern design. Charles Eames was born in 1907 in St. Louis, Missouri. He studied architecture at the University of Washington and, at the invitation of the Finnish architect Eliel Saarinen, continued his studies at the Cranbrook Academy of Arts, Michigan in 1940. There he met Eero Saarinen, with whom he entered a competition called " Organic Design in Home Decor" organized by MoMA in New York. Eames and Saarinen won the competition using a plywood molding technique originally developed by Alvar Aalto. In Cranbrook, Charles Eames also met her future wife Ray, and the couple married in 1941.
