Charles and Ray Eames designed their house as part of the Case Study House Program for Arts & Architecture magazine. It was built in 1949 out of prefabricated materials in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles.

According to Ice Cube, 'they was doing mashup before mashups even existed.'

Charles and Ray Eames operated out of this renovated garage on 901 Washington Blvd (now known as 901 Abbot Kinney) from 1941 until Ray died in 1988. The office had very few permanent rooms. Walls could be moved to accommodate research or transform the space into a shooting stage.

The artifacts from their office are preserved at the Library of Congress. The building has been remodeled and is currently not open to the public.
