Immerse yourself in the world of Charles and Ray Eames with this curated selection of postcards showcasing everything from promotional materials they created for the Herman Miller Company to souvenirs from their travels and vintage examples featuring their exhibitions and furniture. Published alongside the online exhibition Return to Sender, this catalog offers a rare glimpse into the personal correspondence between the Eameses and their family, and the vibrant imagery that captured their attention.
Each postcard reveals an inside look into the life of Charles and Ray—their groundbreaking designs, their close-knit relationships, and the fanbase that grew around their work—all conveyed through simple four-by-six-inch mementos. The catalog features beautifully documented artifacts, rarely seen archival photos, and a special insert of the Eameses’ companion piece to the film A Computer Glossary. Also included is an essay by design writer Diana Budds and a curatorial note from Llisa Demetrios, chief curator of the Eames Institute and granddaughter of Charles and Ray.
