Rumah-rumah Eames: Arsitektur Hunian Charles dan Ray Eames

For two decades the Eameses built houses the way they did everything else — as a problem to be solved rather than an image to be composed. The Eames Houses, published by Phaidon in 2026, is the first monograph dedicated entirely to that work: all eight residences Charles and Ray designed between 1945 and 1955, documented through sketches, drawings, correspondence, and photographs, many appearing in print for the first time.

The book traces how the same logic running through the Eames Office's furniture and exhibition work ran through its architecture — prefabrication as a structural value, flexibility as a design principle, the house as a system rather than an object. One of six chapters is given entirely to Case Study House No. 8, with newly commissioned photography and materials drawn from the Eames Office archives. The book accompanied an exhibition at the Triennale di Milano in April 2026, now traveling internationally.

Written by Eckart Maise, board director of the Charles & Ray Eames Foundation and former Chief Design Officer at Vitra, with contributions from curator Catherine Ince and forewords by Norman Foster and Eames Demetrios.
