American duo Charles and Ray Eames are highly regarded for their developments in the modernist design movement.
Although well known for their furniture and architecture, they also produced a series of films.
The Design Institute of Australia (SA Branch) and New Architects and Graduates are joining forces to present a collection of these films.
The films are presented by Alan Boyd, who will help digest the meanings behind these educational offerings.
