An exhibition titled 'The Eames Houses' opened at Triennale Milano during Milan Design Week 2026. It offers a comprehensive look at the residential architecture of Charles and Ray Eames, featuring scale models of eight house projects, archival materials, and two full-scale pavilion structures built using a modular system developed with Kettal. The show runs from April 20 to May 10 and is accompanied by a newly published volume on the Eames' residential work.
The exhibition highlights the enduring influence of the Eameses' design philosophy, particularly their innovative use of prefabricated components and modular systems. By presenting both detailed models and inhabitable full-scale structures, it provides a unique, multi-sensory understanding of their architectural concepts, bridging historical study with contemporary construction methods and influencing trends in exhibition design and architectural prototyping.
