Broom Chair by Starck, Emeco
tl.mag is always keen to defend some sustainable designs and the Broom Chair by Philippe Starck for the famous US so-called Aluminium Chair Company Emeco is part of them.
Shown on Milan Furniture Fair in April, this chair is made of 75% reclaimed polypropylene, 15% reclaimed wood fiber and 10% glass. It clearly reveals its qualities and lightness without abandoning the fact of being a very nice, functional and aesthetic stool. Let’s enter into the world of Starck with his exquisite english accent. We cannot doubt, he is really French but with an enlightened vision and using design as a tool for a better living. Click here
