Brimming with more than 2,500 images and insider information, this two-volume book sheds new light on the context in which the furniture of Charles and Ray Eames was created. It documents in unparalleled detail how the design process in the Eames Office developed as well as the significant roles played by specific designers and manufacturers.

Volume 2 features the period from the aftermath of the Second World War through 1978, the year of Charles Eames's death and of the effective, functional end of the Eames Office.
