Eames 2500 Series Executive Desk

Overview

The Eames 2500 Series Executive Desk combines the T-leg developed for the earlier multi-use table series with a raised desktop derived from a limited-edition custom Eames design. Herman Miller introduced this executive model in 2022.

Construction

Steel columns and parallel aluminum feet form the universal T-leg. The upper case provides a broad worksurface, a secondary shelf for flat storage, and basic cable management. Premium veneer choices can be specified with an optional leather inlay.

Representative dimensions

The smaller listed configuration measures 48 inches wide, 24 inches deep, and 29.5 inches high. A larger 60 by 30 inch desktop is also listed in the official Product Sheet.

An iterative Eames design

Herman Miller describes the desk as an extension of Charles and Ray Eames' iterative practice. The designers' 2500 Series multi-use tables were introduced in 1961, but the current Executive Desk is a distinct later product rather than the original table.

A new introduction

The company's official timeline records the Eames 2500 Series Desk among its 2022 introductions. The new model combines the established T-leg idea with a raised executive worksurface based on a limited-edition custom design, preserving the relationship without assigning the 1961 series date to this product.
