Influenced by Finnish architect Eero Saarinen, who won the MoMA Contest for Organic Design in Home Furnishing in 1941, Charles Eames is considered one of the top exponents of the so-called organic architecture and one of the greatest architects and designers of the "Bauhaus" period. He profoundly influenced modern design by making it evolve towards mass production: he decided to resume essential concepts of Bauhaus theory such as the purity of form and the evidence of the function.
