EAMES PLASTIC CHAIR: THE FIRST PLASTIC CHAIR IN HISTORY

There’s a chair on which we’ve sat at least once. If there’s one thing that can never be missing in a doctor’s waiting room or in an office, that’s a Plastic Chair, a 1950s-style chair, with or without arms, and which can be joined laterally with another chair.
