Description

Photographer: Julius Shulman

Subject: Case Study House #8

Location: Pacific Palisades, California

Architect: Charles Eames

Assignment: Architectural Forum

Job: 784 – 16

Date: July 19, 1950

The Eames House was one of the approximately two dozen homes built as part of The Case Study House Program. The Eames House was #8.

Charles and Ray proposed that the home they designed would be for a married couple working in design and graphic arts, whose children were no longer living at home. They wanted a home that would make no demands for itself, and would serve as a background for, as Charles would say, “life in work” and with nature as a “shock absorber.”

The mark is black and matches the background and is barely noticeable and can be easily hidden at the time the print is framed. Price has been reduced due to this issue.
