About Dax

Dax is a chair with armrests that features a polypropylene shell and inner fabric padding.‎ Material – Seat shell: colored through polypropylene.‎ All models are accessible with a seat cushion (screwed to the seat shell) or full upholstery.‎ The completely upholstered version has shaped polyurethane froth cushioning canvassed in fabric, appended to the shell with a welted edge.‎ Different shell and upholstery colors and various bases give a huge number of possible combinations.‎ – Options: the Eames Plastic Chair is accessible as a visitor chair, eating chair, recliner, swivel chair or in stacking versions and with ganging brackets for line seating.‎ Beam-mounted shells are suited for use in waiting areas.‎ – Base: four-legged rounded steel base, chrome covered or powder-coated.‎ The powder-covered version is suitable for outside use.‎ (DAX = Dining Height Armchair X-Base) – Note: special additives hinder the blurring of colors because of UV radiation.‎ However, on the off chance that the chair is exposed to sunlight for delayed periods, the shading might change over time.‎ We prescribe restricted exposure to sunlight.‎ ‘Getting the most of the best to the greatest number of individuals for the least’: with these words, Charles and Ray Eames described one of their principle goals as furniture designers.‎ None of their different designs verge on accomplishing this ideal as the Plastic Chairs.‎ For years, the designer couple investigated the central thought of a one-piece seat shell formed to fit the contours of the human body.‎ After experiments with pressed wood and sheet aluminum during the 1940s produce unsatisfactory results, their search for elective materials drove them to glass-fiber supported polyester resin.‎ The Eameses perceived and completely took advantage of the advantages of the material: mouldability, unbending nature, pleasant material qualities, suitability for industrial assembling methods.‎ With this material, which was previously obscure in the furniture industry, they successfully fostered the shell designs for serial production.‎ After their presentation for the ‘Minimal price Furniture Design’ rivalry coordinated by the Museum of Modern Art in 1948, the Plastic Armchair (A-shell) and Plastic Side Chair (S-shell) were dispatched available in 1950 as the absolute first mass-created plastic chairs in the history of furniture.‎ The Eames Plastic Chairs also presented another furniture typology that has since become widespread: the multifunctional chair whose shell can be gotten together with a wide range of bases to serve diverse purposes.‎ As right on time as 1950, Charles and Ray Eames presented a series of bases that empowered various sitting positions.‎ An especially striking model is the so-called Eiffel Tower base – a multifaceted and effortless design made of steel wire that supremely combines light, rich forms with structural strength.‎ Today Vitra manufactures the agreeable seat shells of the Eames Plastic Chairs in polypropylene, while those of the Eames Fiberglass Chairs are delivered in glass-fiber built up polyester resin.‎ There is also a wide selection of bases and shell colors, alongside upholstery options for some models.‎ This allows customers to specify countless various combinations and to use the chairs in the widest scope of settings – from lounge areas, parlors and work spaces to office workspaces and gathering rooms; from restaurants and cafés to break rooms and cafeterias; from waiting areas and auditoriums to terraces and gardens.‎ In 2016, Vitra added approximately 20 mm to the base stature of the Eames Plastic Chairs DSX, DAX, DSR, DAR, DSW and DAW while adjusting the seat math accordingly.‎
