Chris Labrooy Playfully Reworks the Iconic Eames Shell Chair
For his latest project Scotland-based artist Chris Labrooy sets his sights on the iconic Eames Shell Chair. Titled “Garden of Eames,” the series finds Labrooy reinventing the classic shell design.
Labrooy’s Eames Shell Chair creations are undoubtedly playful, as he implements rabbits on the chair’s back, graffiti detailing, stacked designs, and much more. Chris informs that his “Garden of Eames” project is ongoing, as he will be updating his website with new iterations as they are completed.
The classic Eames Shell Chair was design by Charles and Ray Eames. Since its inception, the design has been transformed into dining chairs, side chairs, rocking chairs, and stools.
After getting a preview of Chris Labrooy’s “Garden of Eames” via the gallery above, be sure to visit the artist’s website for more on the project.
