The UNIQLO X SPRZ NY Eames collaboration collection launching today, will celebrate the groundbreaking contributions during the 20th century of American designer couple, Charles and Ray Eames, to modern design, art and culture.
The couple were best known as designers of furniture, but they also left their marks in many other areas, including through architecture, such films as the Power of Ten and the Relative Size of Things in the Universe, industrial design, and toys and graphic designs. Their designs cared for users and paid attention to detail. The couple started working on prototypes through the Eames Office, which they established in 1941. Today, the office embodies the authenticity of the Eameses through activities to convey, safeguard, and further their legacy.
The UNIQLO X SPRZ NY Eames collaboration collection showcases their timeless designs through graphic T-shirts and other items that fuse fashion and art.
SPRZ NY (for New York) is a global project where art and fashion meet, creating something magical. SPRZ NY items are inspired by famed and influential artists of our time, and include specially designed products like T-shirts, outerwear, innerwear and more. Previously, the SPRZ NY project included a collaboration with The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
Charles and Ray Eames transformed how people experienced and observed the world through furniture, architecture, public spaces and films for more than 40 years. Like UNIQLO, Charles and Ray believed that good design and quality objects should be available to all.
This belief underpinned their work with unexpected materials to celebrate the uncommon
beauty of common things and to uplift people in their everyday lives.
Their signature Eames chairs are enduring global best sellers because they so attractively combine sophistication and simplicity.
