Le duo dynamique du design - La glorieuse carrière de Charles et Ray Eames

«Tout finit par se connecter ? les gens, les idées, les objets, etc. ... la qualité des connexions est la clé de la qualité en soi.»
Charles Eames

«... tout dépend toujours d'autre chose.»
Ray Eames

Rien n'exprime mieux la perfection moderniste que le design des Eames. Bien qu'il soit essentiellement connu pour son mobilier, ce célèbre duo mari et femme, composé de Charles et Ray Eames (respectivement 1907-78 et 1912-88), fut également précurseur en matière d'architecture, de dessin industriel, de photographie ou encore de cinéma.

Cet ouvrage couvre tous les aspects de leur carrière prestigieuse, de leurs premières expériences de mobilier et de leurs modèles en contreplaqué moulé à leurs «Case Study Houses», en passant par leurs créations pour Herman Miller ou leurs films, comme le court-métrage Powers of Ten qui inspira bien des artistes.

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

A nice introduction to the lives of Ray and Charles Eames and their journey towards changing design and manufacturing in the United States. For anyone who hasn't been, it is definitely worth visiting their house in L.A. which is still there completely in tact.
