Podcast appearances and mentions of Ray Eames

From their Venice Beach studio, Charles and Ray Eames revolutionized design in post-war Los Angeles, shaping the modernist ethos of California and beyond. Known for their groundbreaking Case Study House No. 8, furniture, and films, their work seamlessly blended art, science, and functionality. In this week's conversation, Daniel Ostroff, editor of "An Eames Anthology," shares fresh insights into the married couple's philosophy and enduring relevance. Drawing from four years of curating their writings and his own work with the Eames organizations, Ostroff talks about the design team's moral vision and multidisciplinary impact in the year of the 75th anniversary of the Eames House.

From the revolutionary Lounge Chair to the vibrant, Mondrian-inspired glass walls of their Case Study House, Ray's vision and meticulous artistry shaped modernism as we know it.But behind the sleek lines and bold colors was a woman often mistaken for a man—'Ray,' they assumed, must surely be Charles's male counterpart. This misconception gave her an unexpected advantage, opening doors that might have otherwise stayed closed.Yet, Ray's journey was anything but easy. She endured a lifetime of her contributions being overshadowed, her name eclipsed by Charles's fame, and even the painful betrayal of his infidelity. Still, she poured everything into their work, her impact far deeper than most people know. About AmandaNEW BOOK!

Joe Gebbia's journey began in Georgia, where his early interest in sports led him to work as a ball boy for the Atlanta Hawks. However, his true passion lay in art, earning him the nickname "art guy" in school as he spent countless hours drawing from comic books. This passion led him to the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), where he discovered industrial design and the work of Charles and Ray Eames. A pivotal moment came when a professor doubted his art project, but Joe secured school funding and proved the professor wrong, showcasing his early entrepreneurial spirit.At RISD, Joe met Brian Chesky, and he felt an instant connection, believing they would create something significant together. After graduation, Joe moved to San Francisco and convinced Brian to join him, leading to the creation of Airbnb. Faced with skepticism and rejection from investors and law firms, Joe drew on his art background to reframe challenges as opportunities. This resilience paid off as Airbnb became a global phenomenon, changing how people travel and connect.Joe's journey at Airbnb taught him invaluable leadership lessons and underscored the importance of creativity and innovation. His artistic sensibility helped him approach problems with a fresh perspective, leading to the creation of Samara, a venture focused on reimagining home design. After Airbnb went public, Joe branched Samara out as a separate company, recognizing the potential in the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) space.Beyond Airbnb, Joe relocated to Austin, Texas, becoming a minority owner of the San Antonio Spurs and aligning his entrepreneurial pursuits with his passion for sports. Committed to making a positive impact, Joe is passionate about causes such as homelessness and environmental sustainability. He also helped establish the Eames Institute of Infinite Curiosity, reflecting his commitment to fostering creativity and innovation. Joe Gebbia's story is one of resilience, creativity, and a relentless pursuit of dreams, inspiring others to embrace their passions and challenge the status quo.*The Founder Hour is brought to you by Outer. Outer makes the world's most beautiful, comfortable, innovative, and high-quality outdoor furniture - ALL from sustainable materials - and is the ONLY outdoor furniture with a patented built-in cover to make protecting it effortless.

(NOTAS Y ENLACES DEL CAPÍTULO AQUÍ: https://www.jaimerodriguezdesantiago.com/kaizen/194-creatividad-vii-espera-lo-inesperado-ii-peces-cabreados-furias-asesinas-y-las-primeras-bicicletas/)Hace 60 años, una joven psicóloga llamada Bernice Eiduson comenzó un largo proyecto de investigación sobre la personalidad y los hábitos de trabajo de 40 científicos destacados. Entre los sujetos del experimento había cuatro ganadores del premio Nobel, incluido Linus Pauling que lo ganó dos veces, y un clásico de este podcast: Richard Feynman, cómo no. La investigación duró décadas. De hecho siguió tras la muerte de Eiduson. Y una de las preguntas que trataron de responder fue: «¿Cómo es posible que algunos científicos puedan producir trabajo de alto nivel a lo largo de toda su vida?» ¿Qué tienen de especial? ¿Es su personalidad? ¿Son sus habilidades? ¿Sus rutinas? El patrón que encontraron era claro, aunque sorprendente para algunas personas. Los mejores científicos cambiaban constantemente de tema. Durante sus primeros 100 artículos de investigación, el tema cambiaba una y otra vez. Y no es que cambiaran 3, 5 o 10 veces. De media, los científicos que eran más creativos, durante más tiempo, cambiaron el tema de investigación en sus primeros 100 artículos 43 veces. Y el proyecto de Eiduson no ha sido el único en encontrar resultados similares. Distintos investigadores en diferente campos han llegado a conclusiones similares: las personas más creativas tienen varios proyectos diferentes a la vez. Así empieza una charla TED en la que Tim Harford, un escritor y autor de un podcast muy recomendable del que ya te he hablado alguna vez —Cautionary Tales— habla de creatividad. Y su conclusión es que lo que él llama la multitarea a cámara lenta, es decir, cambiar de tema con frecuencia es algo omnipresente entre la gente creativa.Y dice que es algo que se entrena, que a fuerza de hacerlo, despierta la creatividad. Claro que habría terminado mucho antes si hubiera leído a un griego que hace 2.500 años decía cosas como que «los amantes del conocimiento deben abrir sus mentes a muchas cosas». Bueno, o como se dijera en griego, que cualquiera lo pronuncia. ¿Te gusta kaizen?

Vom Sixties Bungalow in den brutalistischen Hochbunker: Janine und Mark Seelen haben ihr 275qm großes Haus mit Garten, in dem ihre zwei Kinder groß geworden sind, in Hamburg Sasel verkauft und sind in ein 83qm großes Apartment im Hochbunker Frieda nach Ottensen gezogen.Von dem Projekt hatten Janine, Art-Direktorin und Künstlerin und der renommierte Interior-Fotograf Mark Seelen schon 2011 gehört, als die Initiatoren Nicole Alpers und Sebastian Schröder ihnen erzählten, dass sie den ehemaligen Luftschutzbunker aus dem Jahr 1942 in ein Wohnhaus verwandeln wollen. Damals waren die Seelens noch nicht interessiert, denn genauso wie in der Liebe, muss auch beim Real Estate das Timing stimmen. Jahre später kamen die Bauherren nochmal auf sie zu, der Bunker hatte sich mit Hilfe des Architekten Björn Liese in eine höchst attraktive Immobilie verhandelt und eine Eigentumswohnung war plötzlich wieder frei geworden. Für Janine war es (Immo-)Liebe auf den ersten Blick und kurze Zeit später, war sich das Paar einig, dass sie bereit waren sich radikal zu verkleinern. Im Podcast erzählen Janine und Mark warum eine Reise nach Japan ihnen dabei half, sich auch das Notwendigste zu reduzieren und wie sie mit durchdachter Raumaufteilung, besonderen Materialen und ausgesuchten Designerstücken ihre Bunker-Wohnung in einen gemütlichen Kokon verwandelt haben. Das Haus in der Friedensallee, das einst ein Zufluchtsort vor den Schrecken des Krieges war, bietet heute eine andere Art von Sicherheit und ist zum neuen Zuhause geworden.

Antje Wewer hat den Ausnahmeschauspieler Udo Kier - der am 14. Oktober 80 Jahre alt wird - in Palm Springs besucht. Der Kölner hat schon mit Warhol, Fassbinder, Schlingensief und Lars von Tier gearbeitet und ist vor rund 30 Jahren nach Amerika ausgewandert.Anfangs lebte Udo Kier noch Vollzeit in Los Angeles, dann verlor er sein Herz in Palm Springs an die ehemalige Francis F. Crocker Library, die 1965 von den Architekten Albert Frey und Peter Clark gebaut wurde. Das Haus wird von einem 1.000 Quadratmeter großen Wohnzimmer dominiert, das dank Kiers beeindruckender Sammlung von Vintage-Leuchten und - Stühlen von Charles und Ray Eames, Eero Saarinen und George Nelson - das Ergebnis von 20 Jahren eifriger Sammeltätigkeit von Kier - eher an einen Showroom für Möbel aus der Mitte des Jahrhunderts erinnert als an ein traditionelles Wohnzimmer. Kier sagt über sich: „I'm a lucky man“ und we got very lucky, dass wir ihn in der vielleicht schönsten Bücherhalle überhaupt besuchen konnten.FILMTIPPS: Abgesehen davon, dass Udo Kier in einem Dutzend Lars von Trier Filmen mitspielt hat, sind "My private Idaho“ (1991)von Gus van Sant, die TV-Serie Altes Geld von David Schalko und die Tragik-KOmödie Swan Song (2021) sehr zu empfehlen. In Swan Song spielt Kier einen ehemalige Coiffeur, der noch mal aus dem Ruhestand geholt wird, um seiner ehemals besten Freundin (Linda Evans) die Haare für ihre Beerdigung zu richten.

Charles and Ray Eames were superstar designers who dreamed up some of the most iconic pieces of furniture ever made. And they did much more than that.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In our ongoing series Children of Genius, we'll talk to John Barnes, son of New York Modernist architect Edward Larrabee Barnes, and Ainsley Gores Gilligan, daughter of Connecticut architect and one of the Harvard Five, Landis Gores.  They join our past interviews with family of well-known architects such as Eric and Susan Saarinen, children of Eero; Raymond and Dion Neutra, children of Richard;  grandchildren of Frank Lloyd Wright and Charles and Ray Eames; and children of Craig Ellwood, Bill Cody, Charlie Gwathmey, Charles Deaton, and many more.

Show notes and transcript: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/llisa-demetrios#details Mid century modern design aesthetics are enduring and as relevant today as ever. Perhaps no designers influenced those philosophies more than Charles and Ray Eames whose body of work transcends media and is still being produced today. It's hard not to think of the Eames' as monolithic design heroes, but today we're taking a different look at them as human beings. We're talking with Llisa Demetrios, Chief Curator of the Eames Institute and the granddaughter of Charles and Ray.   In this interview, we get to know some of the personal stories behind the legendary designers, from how they met, to Llisa's experience having two of the most creative grandparents a child could wish for. This is the first episode of our series on design history, to be followed by interviews with legendary designers like Paula Scher and Jonathan Hoefler, design curators like Paola Antonelli, and design historians like Barry Katz. After the interview, stay tuned for a special conversation with Heath Ceramics, founded by Edith Heath in the 1940s and which played a major role in defining the mid-century modern aesthetic. Learn about the origins of Heath Ceramics and bring the history home with a special discount that we'll share at the end of the conversation.

Bio Llisa Demetrios is the Chief Curator for the Eames Institute, a non-profit 501(c)(3) public charity that aims to equip everyone with the lessons of Ray and Charles Eames, so that anyone can solve problems through design. Llisa has also been a bronze sculptor for over twenty years. She makes mainly in bronze material sculptures for contemplative retreats set in homes, private gardens and corporate spaces. Additionally, Llisa has worked as an archivist for both the Eames Office and MOMA.

When you think of truly iconic design, what comes to mind? In tech, perhaps it's the iPhone. In typography, Helvetica claims legendary status. In the furniture world, one piece has a hold over designers like no other; the Eames Lounge Chair. If the name doesn't ring a bell, its form is instantly recognizable. From appearances in Frasier, Iron Man, Beyonce videos, and Bond films, the Eames silhouette has become a cultural icon, unchanged since its inception in 1956. The brainchild of design legends Charles and Ray Eames, the Lounge Chair has become a case study in great design and business... So in today's Teardown, we're not just unpicking what makes the Lounge Chair a great product, but the business of the company behind it - Herman Miller. From the Eames Lounge Chair to the Aeron tech office staple, Herman Miller products have found their way into our homes and offices and earned a place in prestigious museums like the Museum of Modern Art in New York. But this episode isn't just about chairs. Today, we're diving deep into the business side of Herman Miller. What strategies have propelled them to the forefront of the high-end furniture industry? Why has design collaboration been critical to the enduring desirability of their products? How has their commitment to design, innovation, and sustainability shaped their business model? And in this new age of remote work, how is Herman Miller evolving, and what does it mean for the future of office spaces? So get cozy (or better yet, settle into your favorite chair) and let's unfold the business story of Herman Miller.      

Many know Ray Eames as the small, dirndled woman behind her more famous husband, Charles Eames. But Ray was the industrial designer bending plywood in the spare bedroom, a talented artist who saw the world full of color, the visionary who treated folk art, cigarette wrappers, flowers, and toys as equally valuable and inspiring. Ray brought the sparkle and inspiration to the legendary Eames Office.

Today Recall this Book welcomes Zachary Horton, Associate Professor of Literature and director of the Vibrant Media Lab at University of Pittsburgh; game designer, filmmaker and camera designer. Out of all these endeavors, he came to talk about his book The Cosmic Zoom Scale, Knowledge, and Mediation. This dizzying book begins with a bravura description of a movie we both loved as kids: The Powers of Ten by Charles and Ray Eames. It's a view of two people enjoying a picnic zooms up and away to show their surroundings, all the way up into space then zooms back in for a close-up of the hand of the picnicker, ending top at the atomic level . The book, uses the cosmic zoom as a starting point to develop a cross-disciplinary theory of scale as mediated difference. Zack shares his worries about scale literacy, and what happens when we diverge from the "meso-scale of the human sensorium." John approaches scale by way of Naturalism and SF in the late 19th century, both of which refuse the meso-scale aesthetic realism of their day in order to anchor it at a different scale. Elizabeth asks about temporal scales and geology's activation of human sense of humans' scalar insignificance.

Today Recall this Book welcomes Zachary Horton, Associate Professor of Literature and director of the Vibrant Media Lab at University of Pittsburgh; game designer, filmmaker and camera designer. Out of all these endeavors, he came to talk about his book The Cosmic Zoom Scale, Knowledge, and Mediation. This dizzying book begins with a bravura description of a movie we both loved as kids: The Powers of Ten by Charles and Ray Eames. It's a view of two people enjoying a picnic zooms up and away to show their surroundings, all the way up into space then zooms back in for a close-up of the hand of the picnicker, ending top at the atomic level . The book, uses the cosmic zoom as a starting point to develop a cross-disciplinary theory of scale as mediated difference. Zack shares his worries about scale literacy, and what happens when we diverge from the "meso-scale of the human sensorium."

The band went through various line up changes and included musicians Frankie Brent, Chris Lawson, Doug Stirling, Bob Johnson, Laurie Allen, Johnny Cosgrove, Alan Easterbrook, Ray Houston, Dennis Tucker, and Doug Flower. By the time the Blue Jays had teamed up with Tony the band consisted of drummer Bob Johnson, guitarist Mal Clarke, Ray Eames on lead guitar, Paul Shannon playing sax and Royce Nicholls on Bass. Jimmy Cerezo  would replace Ray Eames. Originally Velvet Waters was an instrumental song by American band The Megatrons before Australian songwriter Dorothy Dodds added lyrics to the tune.

De Aino Aalto a Ray Eames, de Eileen Gray a Margarete Shütte-Lihotzky. Este es un capítulo de cuidado, misterio, justicia y emoción. Cuenta otra historia del diseño industrial. 

Edward Killingsworth graduated from USC in 1940 and was the most prolific creator of Case Study Houses – a project sponsored by Arts and Architecture Magazine to provide affordable housing for returning WWII soldiers and their families.  These architects included Richard Neutra, Charles and Ray Eames, Pierre Koenig, Rodney Walker, and the fast and furious Craig Ellwood, among others. Killingsworth, who died in 2004, won 42 AIA award and was campus architect for Cal State Long Beach for more than 40 years. Today's guest knew Killingsworth well and honeymooned in one of his hotels, the Kapalua Bay Hotel in Maui, sadly destroyed in 2006.  Architect Kelly Sutherlin McLeod of Long Beach specializes in historic preservation projects, working on buildings by Richard Neutra and Ed Killingworth, among many others.  She also bought his office!  Later on, swing jazz with musical guest Laura Windley.

Charles Eames y Ray Eames fueron un matrimonio estadounidense de diseñadores industriales que hicieron importantes contribuciones históricas al desarrollo de la arquitectura y el mobiliario moderno. También trabajaron en los campos del diseño industrial y gráfico, las bellas artes y el cine. Charles era la cara pública de Eames Office, pero Ray y Charles trabajaron juntos como socios creativos. Entre sus diseños más reconocidos se encuentra el Eames Lounge Chair y el Eames Dining Chair, que seguramente sin saberlo antes, ya las has visto. Hoy recordamos sus sabias palabras:“Reconocer la necesidad es la primera condición principal para el diseño.”

Chief Curator of the Eames Institute of Infinite Curiosity, Llisa Demetrios grew up in a family of brilliant sculptors, authors, and designers. Her mother's parents were none other than Charles and Ray Eames, the legendary mid-century design duo. In addition to pioneering design work, apparently they were excellent grandparents as well, imparting on Llisa a way of engaging with the world through curiosity and a lens for new possibilities. This approach to creative problem-solving has guided Llisa through a career as an archivist and bronze sculptor. Now, as the Chief Curator of the recently-launched Eames Institute of Infinite Curiosity, Llisa is bringing the lessons of Charles and Ray to life for the next generation of curious problem solvers.

In the world of interior design, mid-century Modernism has left an indelible mark still seen and felt today in countless open-concept floor plans and spare, geometric furnishings. Yet despite our continued fascination, we rarely consider how this iconic design sensibility was marketed to the diverse audiences of its era. Examining advice manuals, advertisements in Life and Ebony, furniture, art, and more, Mid-Century Modernism and the American Body: Race, Gender, and the Politics of Power in Design (Princeton UP, 2021) offers a powerful new look at how codes of race, gender, and identity influenced—and were influenced by—Modern design and shaped its presentation to consumers. Taking us to the booming suburban landscape of postwar America, Kristina Wilson demonstrates that the ideals defined by popular Modernist furnishings were far from neutral or race-blind. Advertisers offered this aesthetic to White audiences as a solution for keeping dirt and outsiders at bay, an approach that reinforced middle-class White privilege. By contrast, media arenas such as Ebony magazine presented African American readers with an image of Modernism as a style of comfort, security, and social confidence. Wilson shows how etiquette and home decorating manuals served to control women by associating them with the domestic sphere, and she considers how furniture by George Nelson and Charles and Ray Eames, as well as smaller-scale decorative accessories, empowered some users, even while constraining others. A striking counter-narrative to conventional histories of design, Mid-Century Modernism and the American Body unveils fresh perspectives on one of the most distinctive movements in American visual culture. Nushelle de Silva is a PhD candidate in the Department of Architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Her work examines museums and exhibitions, and how the dissemination of visual culture is politically mediated by international organizations in the twentieth century.

OP.™ – short for Office of Possibilities – is a multi-disciplinary design studio that creates objects and spaces based on well-informed strategic ideas. Their competences span architecture, art direction, exhibition design, industrial design, brand strategy, graphic design and innovation strategy.I've been following them since they moved into their Gothenburg studio, in the same building where I was living at the time. Since then, they have built a formidable portfolio of projects involving brand identity, product design, architecture, exhibition design, and more; with clients such as Volvo, Ikea, H&M, Voi Scooters, and Elektron Music Machines.For this conversation, I went back to my old neighborhood and sat down with co-founders Petter Hillinge and Caspar Andrén. We talked about their personal journeys that led to owning a design studio together; how they grew their company 100% during a pandemic (partly due to their experience in functioning as a remote, distributed team); how they communicate, sell, and execute truly multi-disciplinary work; the great designers that they have learned from; the tensions between business and creativity; and other topics that shed light on their practice of design.https://designdisciplin.com/op:: Books, Links, Resources*+ Alvar Aalto: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alvar_Aalto+ BIG (Bjarke Ingels Group): https://big.dk/+ Charles and Ray Eames: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_and_Ray_Eames+ Deglabbet: https://www.deglabbet.se/+ Forsman & Bodenfors: https://forsman.co/+ Grid Systems in Graphic Design by Josef Müller-Brockmann: https://geni.us/grid-systems+ Gunnar Asplund: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunnar_Asplund+ Josef Müller-Brockman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josef_M%C3%BCller-Brockmann+ Kilo: https://kilodesign.dk/+ Louisiana Museum of Modern Art: https://louisiana.dk/en/+ Ogilvy on Advertising by David Ogilvy: https://geni.us/ogilvy-on+ Pål Svensson: http://www.palsvensson.se/+ Sigurd Lewerentz: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigurd_Lewerentz+ Skewed: https://skewed.com/+ Sprint by Jake Knapp: https://geni.us/sprint-dd+ The Futur: https://thefutur.com/:: Connect with Design Disciplin+ Website: http://designdisciplin.com​+ Podcast: http://podcast.designdisciplin.com​+ Instagram: http://instagram.com/designdisciplin/​+ Twitter: http://twitter.com/designdisciplin/​+ YouTube: http://youtube.com/designdisciplin+ Bookstore: http://designdisciplin.com​/bookstore:: Connect with OP.™+ Website: https://op-web.se/+ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/op_update/:: Episode Bookmarks00:00:00​ Intro00:02:32 What does OP.™ do?00:06:50 Co-founders' stories00:15:10 Investments that led to success00:19:27 Remote work experiences, tools of the trade, and getting hands-on00:24:40 Research trips00:27:53 Job titles at a small design studio00:30:56 Scoping and managing projects of different sizes00:40:55 The good design brief00:43:59 Achieving creative satisfaction00:49:00 Saying "no"00:51:39 Reputation, making a mark, and attention to detail00:55:34 OP.™'s design philosophy and style01:02:12 Influences01:05:19 Books and resources01:06:56 Failures that lead to success01:09:10 Iteration, evolution, and imitation in design01:12:07 How to do research01:15:50 Advice for students and aspiring creatives01:21:56 What is next for OP.™?01:23:41 Parting advice and food for thought 01:26:25 Closing*: May contain affiliate links – at no extra cost to you, we earn a commission if you purchase from these links.

We are hosting curator Lucia Pietrouisti; and hearing her take on inhabiting institutions and much much wider ecosystems.Lucia was in charge of public programming at the Serpentine Gallery in London when she launched the General Ecology program. This was not only a program of content as usual, but rather included an in-depth look into the institution's ecological footprint and thus came with a range of challenging questions around environmental responsibilities.We discuss with Lucia the intricacies of maneuvering such realms with severe conventions and bureaucracies. An example she gives is the military in Venice, where they installed the infamous art opera sun & sea (Marina) for the 2019 Venice Biennale.

Dream aesthetic: A sharp focus on sentiment, form, and light. What does his style say about him: Focus…that he cares. Put together, but not fussed over. Recommended products: Lulu Lemon, Acne Studios, J.Crew, Comme de Garcons, Aesop. What energizes him: Being around people where you can be real, knowing different levels of who you are. Whose shoes would he spend a day in: Yo Yo Ma Learn more: jarrettporter.com / Instagram — Praised for his “imposing baritone” and “supple vibrant baritone that he deploys with unaffected lyricism and manifest honesty” by Opera News, American baritone Jarrett Porter is quickly making a name for himself with a fearless talent and commanding intellect.
