The Burosthul by Eames


There are only two authorized manufacturers of the Eames designs in the world, and that's Herman Miller and Vitra. Regardless, spinoffs continue to pop up around the internet and at big box retailers, and it's not the first time. The request was for leisure chairs light enough to move from indoors to out and strong enough to withstand the elements. At the time, the Eameses were exploring ways to use aluminum, which had been strengthened, refined and made more affordable since WWII. They constructed a lightweight die-cast frame for the project, then wrapped it in a sling which a “sitting pocket” that subtly conforms to the body’s shape. The result was a completely new type of seat and a departure from the idea of a chair as solid shell. While the original concept was for outdoor seating, the Eameses quickly recognized its possibilities for indoor use. This collection has been in continuous production by Herman Miller since 1958. Constructed of 60 percent recycled materials, it’s also 85 percent recyclable at the end of its useful life. The Eames EA 117 and EA 119 office chairs or Deutschland Eames burosthul in German were designed by Charles and Ray Eames, and are one of the most famous designs from the aluminum group. The Germans loved the Eames Burosthul and these series of designs raised in 1958 and belong to the classic furniture designs of the 20th century. The Eames Burosthul chairs belong to the "Aluminum Group" and are some of the most influential designs of the 20th century. Instead of the usual solid seat, Charles and Ray Eames chose to use a piece of leather or fabric, that is stretched across the aluminum frame. This created a tightly stretched, yet elastic seat. The office chairs are often spotted in TV series and movies and that's not without a good reason because the Aluminum group Eames Burosthul chairs are a symbol or luxury and comfort. The chairs are designed to optimally support your lower back. The Deutschland Eames burosthul chairs are not just popular for their looks but also for the extraordinary comfort. 

The ethically designed seats of the chair are so comfortable with the piece of leather and two pieces of aluminum side ribs and stretched the upholstery tautly around each end of the frame. The result is an extremely comfy and incredibly stylish chair at reasonable prices. With the fact that the design of the chair has come along a long span of time, it is commendable for the inventor to have thought about the wonderful sleek design. Charles Eames blessed the future generation with the art of its own type. He together with his wife Ray is responsible for many iconic designs of the last century, including these classic inspired Eames office chairs. Eames made effective use of groundbreaking processes and new materials and in the 1950’s it went on to be the first mass produced plastic chair. It remains to this day an iconic piece that defines an era yet still remains its greatness today.
