The defining feature of the Vitra Eames DSR is its filigree Eiffel frame - named after the Parisian landmark which it so poetically resembles. Ray and Charles Eames' design was conceived as a series and today is employed in a variety of seating and household objects. In close cooperation with the Eames Office, Vitra developed and launched a colour update in 2019, an adaptation which allows the the Eames Plastic Chairs to shine in a world of new shades and combinations.
