In 2002 Kevin Roche donated the Eero
Saarinen and Associates office archives to
the Yale University Library. By inspecting
the original drawings, letters and other
rare materials Matrix discovered projects
of furniture, never published before,
and studied them in depth for starting a
manufacturing process.
The lounge seats for the General Motors
Technical Center, the tables for the Vassar
College and the seats for the Law School
of the Chicago University are now part of
Matrix International Furniture collection.
The Organic Unit in Furniture Design is
the synthesis of that experience, and
presents a wide perspective on Saarinen’s
work in the field of Furniture Design.
