The sofa\u2019s form is based on a series of prototypes at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan of an extruded fiberglass shell armchair that was being developed sometime in the late 1950\u2032s. Each iteration of the design was thicker than the last in order to strengthen it enough to hold multiple sitters. However, the final iteration, at a full 3\/4-inch thick, was too heavy to move easily.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Carbon Fiber Eames Sofa imagines the sofa reborn using the most modern materials and the most traditional methods.\u201d says Strong. \u201cWoven using a traditional woven caning pattern out of 12k carbon fiber tow, it weighs in at single digits, the weaving pattern adds substantial strength to the design and helps with cross-bond adhesion.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s transparency lays bare its own construction methodology, and allows visual access to every part of the base, giving it an aesthetic coherence that feels both uncanny and curiously natural Matthew Strong<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
