To celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Eames Office, the practice has launched a new edition of Charles and Ray Eames’s groundbreaking 1943 Molded Plywood Sculpture. To mark the occasion, Disegno sat down with the designers’ grandson, Eames Demetrios, to discuss the sculpture’s significance to their practice.

Act will be installed in Highgate’s West Cemetery and explore ideas of memorialisation and Victorian society’s relationship to death.
