Emeco Barstool
The Museum of Modern Art asked Philippe Starck and Emeco to make a simple stool for the “Mies Van der Rohe in Berlin” retrospective. The museum selected these barstools as pieces that might have been chosen by Mies van der Rohe today. The result is one of our best selling stools, a circle in a square – at once practical and sophisticated.

Emeco
Emeco was founded in 1944 in Hanover, Pennsylvania, to build a chair for the U.S. Navy that was light, strong and able to survive life at sea. The 1006 Navy Chair is still made there by hand, from recycled aluminium, in seventy-seven steps.
Philippe Starck
One of the most prolific designers of the past fifty years, and a long-time collaborator of Emeco. His Broom chair turns factory waste, swept from the floor, into a stackable chair, which gave it its name.
