In a conversation with his friend Charles Eames in 1957 about outfitting the interior of the Miller House in Columbus, Indiana, the architect and designer Alexander Girard mentioned the lack of high-quality weatherproof furniture for use on the terrace. Motivated by this impulse, Charles and Ray Eames began to design a chair suited for both outdoor and indoor environments. This soon led to the development of an entire family of chairs for universal applications – the Aluminium Group.
