MOLDING A MODERN DINING ROOM WITH EAMES!

August 14, 2012

A mid century modern classic…the Eames Molded Plastic Chair. First introduced to in 1948 by the famed design couple Charles and Ray Eames, this chair has become a timeless decor and design staple.

Here’s a look at how this classic is used quite elegantly in modern dining rooms from around the world!

What do you think of the Eames chair? Like or dislike? Would you ever use in your dining room? If you own one or two or more…where are you using them?

Happy Tuesday!

    Love these chairs – and love seeing all the different applications of them together!

    I use two white ones as end chairs along with four Emeco Navy chairs…with a plain white table and Horchow’s Capiz Shell Pendant Light (the big ball) hanging above. I love them.

    I really appreciate these chairs, and I would use them in a clients home if they wanted them. But they aren’t my favorite.

    They are really starting to grow on me. I like them mixed with rustic. Would work great with my set as chairs for the head of the table. Would be a great contrast to my Darcy Shabby Chic chairs.

    I love that first room except for the chairs. It would look gorgeous with some Louis XV-style chairs.

    Hmmm I do like these chairs but not 100 percent convinced they work in these settings. I think it’s the metal frame that makes them though.

    Love the chairs, too. My favorite picture is definitely the one with the wood floor. The modern and rustic coming together is a great combo.

This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤

Life when I’m offline. 🎣 On this trip to Park CitLife when I’m offline. 🎣
On this trip to Park City, UT, I was way off line with a little fly fishing. No emails. No DMs. No feed. Just a rod, a beautiful river, and however long it takes to catch something.
Running two brands means my brain rarely stops so when it does, it really does.
No fish were harmed. All fish were returned into the river.
What do you do when you log off? Comment and let's give each other some ideas!😀
