I’ve wanted an Eames lounge chair and ottoman since the early 90’s in high school. It probably had something to do to do with the tv show ‘Frazier’ or at least that’s the first place I am cognizant of seeing it. I was never able to pull the trigger on one, mostly because I knew I could get them at any time.

Then around my birthday, after leaving a movie theater and driving home I saw this in the window and stopped dead in my tracks to make sure I was seeing it. I knew that was my sign; this is your Eames chair.

Yeah, it’s a reproduction, and yeah it’s not super comfortable but damn if it doesn’t look good in my office in the background of meetings. And damn if I don’t get a little smile from it when I turn the corner and see it.
