Artist Bio

Emeco is renowned most for handcrafted aluminum furniture, most famously the 1006 Navy Chair, still produced continuously since the 1940s in the same factory in Hanover, PA. First made for US Navy ships and submarines, the chair is handcrafted in 77 steps and built so strong it comes with a lifetime warranty. This ethos has extended to a wide collection of products in collaboration with international industrial designers spanning a breadth of sustainable materials.

Artwork Description

The 111 Navy Chairs at the Bureau are made from recycled PET from post-consumer stock. Emeco calls these their “Wabi Sabi” chairs that are structurally perfect but have an aesthetic mark that can arise due to the complex nature of injection molding recycled plastic. They grind any of the rPET chairs up and re-injection mold to a new chair, but even more prefer seeing them loved and saving the energy needed to do so.
