Eero Saarinen designed the Tulip Chair (1957) at the peak of his career. His work in the 1940s began focusing on "organic furniture" in which he aimed to restore formal order to the typical interior setting. His vision was to free the interior space from the "sea of legs" that he saw creating "an unpleasant, confused and restless atmosphere." The Eero Saarinen Tulip Chair represents Saarinen's synergy of that vision and its embodiment in a tangible form. The Saarinen Tulip Chair continues to be one of the most popular items from this modern classic designer.
As an architect, Eero Saarinen represented the second generation of modernists.  He was critical of early modernism referring to it as “the measly ABC”.  For Saarinen, it was too simple and singular.  He preferred to create designs for specific clients, matching their needs to an environment.  With this philosophy, he created successful designs for such American corporate giants as General Motors, John Deere, and IBM.
