Vitra Plywood Group DCM/DCW Chair

Vitra Plywood Group DCM/DCW were designed by Charles & Ray Eames in 1945-46. Both model share the upper shell in woods, DCM with base in tubuar steel, DCW with base in wood. Seat and back fixed to the base with cushioning joints. Charles and Ray Eames spent many years experimenting with new techniques to produce three-dimensionally modeled plywood seat shells that fit the shapes of the human body. They achieved this goal with the chairs of the Plywood Group, which became part of the great design classics with a look that is still contemporary. They also created various combinations of tops with different bases for the Plywood Group. Thanks to the organic shape of the plywood shells and the slightly flexible backs, these light and compact chairs are extremely comfortable.
