We geek out when it comes to mid-century modern furniture. When the opportunity arised to produce a case study of the eiffel base for the mid-century fiberglass chairs produced by Ray and Charles Eames, Process Design Agency turned to their own collection of Eames chairs for inspiration.
The Eiffel base is a very sought after commodity, expecially for the mass production fiberglass chairs from the mid-century. Unfortunately Herman Miller does not distribute the Eiffel base, so you have many inspired Eiffel bases around the market retailing for around $100. That would solve the problem except for 90% of these mass production fiberglass chairs have a wide mount base, where all the Eiffel case study bases are actually narrow mount bases made for a limited production narrow mount fiberglass chair.
This is where Process Design Agency engineers come into place. With a new CAD of the Eiffel base and Process China directory Mr. Lee, Process will bring to market the “Wide Mount Eiffel Base” specifically engineered and designed for the Eames Fiberglass side and arm chair.
