"The Eames House, or Case Study House #8, was completed in 1949 in Pacific Palisades, California. It was built as part of Arts & Architecture magazine's Case Study House program, which challenged architects to design homes using post-war industrial materials and techniques."
"Nearly 80 years later, the Eames Office and Spanish manufacturer Kettal are finally making it happen. The Eames Pavilion System is a modular building kit that draws directly from those decades of unpublished drawings and ideas."
"What emerged is not a replica of Case Study #8, but something more faithful to its spirit: a system built on the same principles of efficiency."
The Eames House, completed in 1949, was part of a program aimed at innovative home design using industrial materials. Charles and Ray Eames envisioned a universal architectural system, but their dream remained largely unrealized. Nearly 80 years later, the Eames Office and Kettal are launching the Eames Pavilion System, a modular building kit inspired by the Eames' archives. This new system reflects the original principles of efficiency and accessibility, rather than replicating the iconic Eames House itself.
