"The original building was never meant to be a singular monument; it was first built in 1949 as a radical proof of concept: that a home system could be assembled, adapted, and ultimately replicated."
"The Eames Pavilion System proves that this midcentury concept can live on today-while also positioning itself within contemporary conversations around housing, access, and adaptability."
"Rather than recreating the Eames House, the new Pavilion System distills its essential elements-the grid, the interplay of structure, and the infill-into something that can be built, adapted and deployed across different environments."
Eames Office and Kettal are launching a modular housing system at Milan Design Week 2026, inspired by the Eames House. This system is based on the original Case Study House No. 8, designed for efficient, low-cost housing. The Pavilion System will feature full-scale structures that embody the essential elements of the Eames House, allowing for adaptability and deployment in various environments. This initiative aims to revive the Eameses' vision while addressing contemporary housing challenges.
