NOW. Congrats USPS, you have officially made me an enthusiast. Now my spiral binders from my youth will be complete. These are two designers that changed my childhood from the moment I stood back (about age 7 - second from top, far right) and REALLY looked at the chair I was laying in that I loved so much...
(From USPS.com)
In recognition of their groundbreaking contributions to architecture, furniture design, manufacturing and photographic arts, designers Charles and Ray Eames will be honored next summer with a pane of 16 stamps designed by Derry Noyes of Washington, DC. If you’ve ever sat in a stackable molded chair, you’ve experienced their creativity. Perhaps best known for their furniture, the Eameses were husband and wife as well as design partners. Their extraordinary body of creative work — which reflected the nation’s youthful and inventive outlook after World War II — also included architecture, films and exhibits. Without abandoning tradition, Charles and Ray Eames used new materials and technology to create high-quality products that addressed everyday problems and made modern design available to the American public.
