I found your Substack thanks to Ali and when this email just came through in my inbox, I nearly jumped out of my (Eames) seat! I've been working for the Eames Foundation/Eames Office for 9 years and I'm their Archivist. Charles and Ray have completely changed every tiny and big detail of my universe and I am overjoyed to read how they have changed yours too. You wrote about them so effortlessly, and in a way that is different/special/more nuanced than the writings I usually read about them. Thanks for helping continue their legacy. <3
Kelsey, hi! Oh my goodness, your note brought me so much joy. Writing about Charles and Ray feels like trying to summarize the ocean (which is to say impossible), and I'm grateful for your kind words about my humble attempt. I love how you wrote: "Charles and Ray have completely changed every tiny and big detail of my universe"—YES! Also, you have the coolest job in the entire world and naturally I have a million questions. Thank *you* for all that you do! ❤️

I loved this! I have a special connection to them, too. I love the way your articles make me think and inspire me!
Thank you so much, Taylor! They really are so special. And your articles have the exact same effect on me! <3
So much good inspiration to start my week! Love this change of scenery added to the mix. :)
Thank you, Alicia! Fun fact: I almost called this series "Scene Change."
