Eames Furniture in Popular Culture

 Eames Lounge

 

The Eames lounge chair has appeared on the television series House M.D. The chair and ottoman features in Dr. House's apartment, and also a corduroy-upholstered model in his office.

 

The Eames Lounge Chair also frequented the set of the NBC sitcom Frasier.

 

" Frasier: So what do you think with what I've done with the place, You know, every item here was carefully selected. The lamp by Corbu, this chair by Eames, and this couch is an exact replica of the one Coco Chanel had in her Paris atelier."

 

The chair also appeared in Massive Attack's video for the song Inertia Creeps.

 

Stewie Griffin explicitly announces the chair in Family Guy Video Game!, and upon sitting in it, remarks: "oh my, this chair is orgasmic! I hope these diapers absorb semen."

 

In the Steely Dan song "The Things I Miss The Most" one of the missed things along with the Audi TT is the "comfy Eames Chair".
