inspiration icon- charles & ray eames... via cube


in celebration of their movie that is out in limited release... i'd like to take a moment and just give kudos to one of the best american influences in modern architecture and design, charles and ray eames...


innovators in design and super resourceful in the materials they used, their architecture and furniture designs are still a source of inspiration today... and to boot, they were a husband & wife team! talk about partners in crime. this makes me L-O-V-E them all the more.


here's a video i stumbled upon that just made me laugh. check out ice cube breaking off some knowledge... and in his words, "the eames made structure and nature, one. this is going green 1949 style, biiiiitch...belie've 'dat." oh...and his take on the LA freeways is spot on, too.


enjoy.
