I'm reading An Eames Primer and am fully in awe of this "power couple".  Beyond their contributions to architecture (Case Study House #8), furniture (Eames Lounge Chair) and other mediums such as film, this book gives insight to their personal relationship.  Ray & Charles, together, were purely magic in both the personal and professional realms.

Best book I have read in a long long time - can hardly put it down...
