A Gathering of (Eames) Elephants

I can’t believe I only just found this stop motion film by Eames Demetrios. The plywood elephants were designed in 1945 but only recently have they been put into production by Vitra. I love the fact the elephants passed by my place on their way to the Eames Studio in Venice. There’s also a sneak peak at the Eames house, as well as the fabulous view they had from their woods. The making of the film was documented for the DASFilmFest.

You can buy these cute little critters at Unica Home.
