Eero Saarinen was known for his neo-futuristic style: sleek, simple, and shiny. It was the hallmark of his most iconic creation, the Gateway Arch, as well as his forays into furniture.

To pay tribute to the Finnish-American architect and industrial designer as the Arch turns 50, we asked local interior designers to share their favorite Saarinen-style chairs—seats with a certain futuristic flavor.
