Eames Era (Mid Century Modern Design Today)
Mid-Century modern is an architectural,
interior and product design form that
generally describes post-war developments in
modern design from roughly 1945 to 1965.
Mid-century architecture was a further
development of Frank Lloyd Wright's
principles of organic architecture combined
with many elements reflected in the
International and Bauhaus movements.
Mid-century modernism, however, was much more
organic in form and less formal than the
International Style. Scandinavian designers
and architects were very influential at this
time, with a style characterized by
simplicity, democratic design and natural
shapes. Like many of Wright's designs,
Mid-Century architecture was frequently
employed in residential structures with the
goal of bringing modernism into America's
post-war suburbs. This style emphasized
creating structures with ample windows and
open floor-plans with the intention of
opening up interior spaces and bringing the
outdoors in. Many Mid-century homes utilized
then groundbreaking post and beam
architectural design that eliminated bulky
support walls in favor of walls seemingly
made of glass. Function was as important as
form in Mid-Century designs with an emphasis
placed specifically on targeting the needs of
the average American family. Examples of
residential Mid-Century modern architecture
are frequently referred to as the California
Ranch style.
Pioneering builder and real estate developer
Joseph Eichler was instrumental in bringing
Mid-Century Modern architecture to
subdivisions in California and select housing
developments on the east coast.
Well-known designers of the mid-century
modern era include: Alvar Aalto, Al Beadle,
Harry Bertoia, Chris Choate, Thomas Scott
Dean, Charles and Ray Eames, Craig Ellwood,
Max Gottschalk, Ralph Haver, Edith Heath,
Arne Jacobsen, A. Quincy Jones, Louis Kahn,
Denys Lasdun, Cliff May, Paul McCobb, George
Nelson, Richard Neutra, Isamu Noguchi, Harvey
Probber, Jens Risom, Eero Saarinen, Rudolf
Schindler, Avriel Shull, Alison and Peter
Smithson, Raphael Soriano, Hans Wegner,
Russel Wright, and Eva Zeisel.

| The Pregnancy of Alex Eames |
 |
I really liked how the writers wrote Kathryn
Erbe's pregnancy into the show. But I never
really watched the eps with Bishop because it
was just not the same. This is simply a vid
with all those scenes with Bobby&Alex during
Alex' desk duty, or a mentioning of Eames and
her pregnancy.
