Via @eamesoffice ~ In 1947, the Museum of Modern Art invited textile and graphic designers to submit textile designs to "The Competition for Printed Fabrics." Ray Eames submitted two entries: Crosspatch and Sea Things. Ray's most famous fabric design, Dot Pattern, was completed but not entered into the competition. In 1999, the #Eames Office revived the Dot Pattern using Ray's original drawings.
The Dot Pattern has been reproduced on this skateboard, manufactured by @globebrand. Made of Canadian maple, the raised-ink Dot Pattern print is on the bottom of the deck, while a dark maple veneer and archival print are on top. Each board has a custom-designed "Eames" wall mount and a certificate of authenticity.
