Social gatherings at the home of Charles and Ray Eames were legendary. This was especially true when a meal was served. In addition to planning the meal, Ray immensely enjoyed preparing the table – a round Eames Segmented Table – with the aim of bringing pleasure to each individual guest. The arrangement of tablecloths, tableware, cutlery, vases and decorative objects resembled a freshly painted picture, whose shapes and colours complemented the food that was served, creating what resembled a small piece of art.
The role of a table extends far beyond aesthetic considerations, as it is the communal and convivial heart of the home – a place where people can connect. The emphasis on 'connection', as a universal element in both design and everyday life, is a recurring theme in the Eameses' work – even as a structural principle in their products: in the segmented base of the Eames Tables, a so-called spreader connector holds the base elements together and is an essential component, guaranteeing the sophisticated modularity of the entire table range.
