Perfectly designed stools.
By: Shawn S., Homeowner (New York)
I am renovating my kitchen and chose these stools for the island. Our design is simple and modern. The stools are even nicer than expected. The curve makes them very comfortable. They are lightweight and easy to move around. Wonderful modern design. Strength, form and comfort.
Excellent counter stool.
By: David, Homeowner (New York, NY)
One of the most comfortable, light weight, stylish counter stools on the market. Attention to detail is incredible!
Designer: Foster and Partners
"I appreciate the anonymous character of the new chair - it meshes seamlessly with our vision for interior space. The new '20-06' is the result of a genuine collaboration between the Foster Studio and the Emeco Team and will contribute to Emeco's remarkable history. We attempted to fuse modernist form with established craft. The Foster + Partners Studio combined advanced technology, inventive geometry, attention to detail, and sensitivity to ecological considerations with Emeco's unique manufacturing process to make a wholly new design. A Foster building and an Emeco chair are both modern in character, yet demonstrate a great respect for the past."
- Norman Foster (from Emeco.net)

Emeco. Timeless, handmade chairs, made in the U.S.A. from recycled aluminum.
Emeco has an interesting history beginning in 1944 with the 1006 Navy chair, the granddaddy of Emeco that was designed to withstand the harsh environment on a Navy ship. (Legend has it, the seat of the Emeco 1006 Navy Chair was modeled after the seat of actress Betty Grable.) Since then Emeco has had some new editions, designed by some good friends: Philippe Starck, Frank Gehry and Ettore Sottsass to name a few.
Emeco is a leader when it comes to chair fabrication. Committed to sustainability and protecting the environment, Emeco uses post consumer and post industrial waste to create chairs with ultimate strength, intended to last decades. Chairs admired today and indefinitely. Chairs that span generations and cultures.
