About this Event

Kettal presents the Eames Pavilion System, a contemporary building system developed in partnership with the Eames Office. Drawing on Charles and Ray Eames’ architectural prototypes of the 1940s and 1950s, the project develops their concepts of prefabrication, modular construction, and adaptable living environments into a system for contemporary use. Based on extensive archival research, the Pavilion System is informed by projects including Case Study House No. 8, the Eames House, and a series of steel-frame and wood-frame architectures. Presented by a representative of Kettal, the talk-story would revolve around the collaboration between Kettal and Eames to create the new Eames Pavilion System.
