What makes a home?
This was the central question. At the Eames House, Case Study House No. 8, the answer is everywhere. It’s in the light, the objets collected over a lifetime of curiosity, and the seamless threshold between life, work, and landscape.
For Charles and Ray Eames, a home was not a static object but a space in constant dialogue with the people inside it. This vision was inseparable from their guiding principle of bringing “the best, for the most, for the least”—a conviction that a supportive, well-designed and beautiful home was something everyone deserved.
These twin ideals drove our latest PBS Artbound documentary’s exploration of the entire Case Study Program and Arts & Architecture tome - which just received a Los Angeles Area EMMY nomination!
The film does a deep dive into this formative architectural movement through visits to the great standing works for the
@StahlHouseOfficial designed by Pierre Koenig, to
@CaseStudyHouse26 in San Rafael by Beverly Thorne and conversations with visionaries such as Dr. Raymond Richard Neutra and Elizabeth A.T. Smith.
Our deep gratitude to the
@eamesoffice and
@eamesfoundation for inviting us into this very special, singular space, and to every person who helped bring this story to the screen.
