Talk:Eames Lounge Chair

Why is it so notable?
Anyone know why this chair is so important it is found in museums and is a highly sought after collectors piece? I'd love to know more about the history of it! Fxer 06:12, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Part of the reason there is still so much hype around it is related to the fact that it's still considered a 'modern classic' after 50 years. This year is actually the 50th year anniversary. Also, you don't always find comfort paired with innovative design. Check out www.hermanmiller.com for more information/history on the Eames Lounge and Ottoman. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bnj2377 (talk • contribs) 20:05, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Eames Lounge Chair → Eames lounge chair – Most sources use the lower case typography. --Relisted. Armbrust The Homunculus 22:27, 31 August 2014 (UTC) Joja  lozzo  19:50, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Move to Eames Lounge chair; that's the actual, reliably-sourced name.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  01:00, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

 * See here. As I would have expected, most cases of all-three-capitalized "Eames Lounge Chair" are in headings which (WP notwithstanding) are almost always written in title case. The product is the Eames Chair, model number 670.  It has some variants that include the word chair, like "Eames Lounge Chair Wood", but this article isn't about them in particular. "Chair" is a disambiguator that some sources are adding, and we don't seem to have a reason to capitalize it.  I would otherwise, but too many sources indicate it is not actually a part of the formal name of the product/design.  Similarly, my MacPro is a MacPro computer, not a MacPro Computer, despite the fact that I can find some sources that refer to it with such over-capitalization.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  11:33, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Discussion
Another option is Eames Lounge, in which Eames appears to use "lounge" as a noun, perhaps purposely eschewing "chair". Joja lozzo  01:39, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Perhaps, but "lounge" is ambiguous. It is usually a room, but some people use it to mean chair. Let's not change an unambiguous article title to an ambiguous one. Ground Zero | t 16:57, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
