Created  53  years ago, the Eames Aluminum Group in its new version, with fabrics and finishes ready for the outdoors, landed the 2011 ICFF Editors Awards in the Outdoor Furniture category. 

In the brand’s words: ‘What was interesting this year is we were actually going back to an original design with the re-issued Eames Aluminum Group chairs – of course, with some significant updates (technology lets us do cool things with mesh). The iconic chairs actually originated as outdoor furniture designed for the Miller House in Columbus, Indiana. So that’s why we designed the booth with the Miller House in mind. You get to see the new/old design in their natural setting – an iconic modern home with a seamless flow between indoors and out. You can read more detail about the booth and chairs here.’
