For our latest lookbook, we've collected 10 interiors featuring some of Charles and Ray Eames' best-known chair designs, including the couple's mid-century Shell chair and lounge chair.

The Eames designers were known for their iconic mid-century modern furniture, which is still widely appreciated and can be seen in a number of contemporary interiors.

Among the most popular Eames designs are their chairs, many of which are still in production. Original chairs have become sought-after vintage finds, and the designs are often copied, 60 years after they were first released.

Here, we have collected 10 projects on Dezeen that feature Eames chairs, ranging from a penthouse in Belgium to a narrow house in London and the designers' own home.

This is the latest in our lookbooks series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen's archive. For more inspiration see previous lookbooks featuring tiled living spaces, decorative ceilings and ornate plasterwork and homes with deliberately unfinished interiors.

Eames House, US, by Ray and Charles Eames

The Eameses' own house embodies the couple's design aesthetic and is filled with their furniture, books, fabrics, art, shells, rocks and straw baskets.

Seattle home, US, by SHED

This house on the Pacific West Coast, originally built for cartoonist Irwin Caplan, was refurbished by American studio SHED.

In the kitchen and dining area, a set of the Eamses' Shell chairs create a striking white contrast to the wood-panelled walls.

6M House, Ecuador, by Jannina Cabal

The DCW Eames plywood chair is less well-known that the duo's Shell chairs, but no less of a design classic. The chair was designed in 1945 from moulded plywood and features a rounded seat and backrest and arched legs.

In the 6M House in Ecuador, two DCW chairs can be found in the living room, where they blend in well with the wooden bookshelf and panelling.
