The work of this husband-and-wife team has been featured in such MoMA shows as New Furniture Designs by Charles Eames (1946), International Competition for Low Cost Furniture (190), the Good Design exhibition series (1950-1955), and, more recently, Plywood: Material, Process, Form (2011–2013) and The Value of Good Design (2019).
