Metalworker Xavier Pauchard not only brought the art of galvanizing steel to France, but took the process to the next level by creating the Marais A Chair (1934), the quintessential cafe chair that was both elegant and robust enough to grace the decks of the S.S. Normandie ocean liner. "Xavier Pauchard's Chaise A is a perfect synthesis created by a man possessed of an understanding of raw materials – and the tools used to work them," said Serge Lemoine, former director of Musee d'Orsay, Paris. The...

Japanese Hinoki cypress is prized for its bacteria-resistant resin that prevents mildew and withstands humidity. This wood is highly rot resistant and its natural lemon scent is used in aromatherapy to reduce stress. Further encouraging a tranquil state is the knowledge that the wood is a responsibly harvested by-product of forest thinning, which is required to maintain healthy growth. For more than 30 years, designer Yoko Ueno Lewis has been creating original products shaped by practical materials...

After an eBay auction turned up a chair made by Emeco 50 years ago, the company decided to reinterpret the design. Originally made for Navy hospitals in 1951, the chair needed a few modifications. Emeco invited Adrian van Hooydonk and his team at BMW Group DesignworksUSA to join the project. In the same way that the original Mini Cooper relates the new Mini, everyone was in favor of maintaining the original 1951 Chair's simple utilitarian style and aluminum construction, but the lines and surfaces...

Charles and Ray Eames first designed the stools in 1960 for the lobby of the Time Life Building in New York City, but they soon became popular products and with time, one of the more charming classics of modern design.

Chantal Andriot took the helm of the French company Tolix in 2004, and through her passion for the brand and innovative approach, this iconic company has been revived. The new perforated collection (2009) was her idea - a brainstorm that came from seeing a piece of perforated steel in the factory. She challenged her team to design a chair that was perforated but still structurally sound. One year, and countless prototypes later, they succeeded. The perforated chairs and stools bring a unique twist...

The LC8 Swivel Stool (1928) represents the designers’ interest in exploring the structural possibilities of tubular steel and was designed to mirror the LC7 Swivel Chair. The LC Series was originally designed for indoor use, but after a visit to Villa Savoye, where some of the pieces were being used on the outdoor terrace, Cassina was inspired to create outdoor-safe models. The manufacturer spent 3 years working closely with the LC Foundation to develop a product that was within the foundation’s...

In production since 1953, this is the authentic Rimini Blu Collection, designed by Aldo Londi. Over the decades, there have been many products inspired by Londi’s work, but only the master ceramists at Bitossi know the formula for this stunning blue glaze. As the art director of Bitossi for more than 50 years, Londi built this collection over time, adding new animals, vases and bowls – each one showing a different approach to his intricate hand-embossed patterns. Even today, the master artisans at...

This Daybed (2004) was designed “to be seen in the round,” says Craig Bassam, by which he means that it can be seen and used from all sides. Such an approach isn’t surprising from a design team living in a glass house where furniture is visible from every angle, whether you’re standing inside or out. The house is the work of Philip Johnson, the architect who designed the Glass House for his own private residence in New Canaan, Connecticut. To see how seamlessly this Daybed (and all the furniture...

A functional product with a big personality, Hug (2009) is a comfortable chair designed by Marc Sadler. It’s made with long-lasting materials and finishes, including a white polyethylene base and durable fabric that’s UV resistant and highly water repellent. While it might resemble a large pouf, the way in which the cushion is attached to the base actually creates support for the spine and offers a comfortable seating position. This special attachment perhaps evolved from Sadler’s work in plastic...

Christophe Pillet brings simplicity, sensuality and a light touch to his internationally renowned work with Lacoste, Catherine Malandrino, Cappellini, Emu, Renault and others. This French designer was trained in Italy, where he assisted Martine Bedin and Michele De Lucchi, and returned to France in 2003 to launch his own agency. His collaboration with Emeco began in 2009 when Pillet was commissioned by Hotel Sezz to do the interiors for its new St. Tropez location. A contemporary interpretation of...

With a nod toward the iconic work of mid-century American masters – but updated to make use of today's most advanced manufacturing processes – the American Modern Collection (2008) has a straightforward aesthetic. Crafted out of solid walnut, this Side Table is made with soft-closing drawer glides that prevent interior contents from shifting to the back each time you close the drawer. The open cabinet is perfect for holding books and other bedside necessities. A bull-nose edge softly finishes the...

Craig Bassam was working on a project in Switzerland when he found a tractor seat on the side of the road. He was impressed by how the seat allowed him to sit in an upright, ergonomic position without the aid of a chair back, but unlike the metal seat that he found, he wanted to create this type of seat in wood. Bassam’s Tractor Stool (2000/2001) is carved out of a massive block of sustainably and locally harvested walnut or ash, the quality of which is in the top 10% of top-grade woods. No stains...

Designer Niels Bendtsen literally received his country’s stamp of approval when his work was featured on a Canadian postage stamp in 1997. About 50 years earlier, Bendtsen had emigrated from Denmark to Canada, where he apprenticed for his father, who designed and built Scandinavian furniture. Through working with his father, Bendtsen gained valuable skills and a respect for non-industrial, hand-built traditions. However, he was also intrigued by new technologies and ways to satisfy increasing demand...

Leave it to designer Philippe Starck to find inspiration in the furniture of Versailles when creating a chair for a Chinese restaurant in Paris. The Kong Counter Stool (2002) is hand crafted in Pennsylvania using the same 77-step process that Emeco first developed for its Navy Chair. While the shape of Kong recalls more delicate French designs, the manufacturing of this chair gives it an ability to stand up to even the most unruly of patrons. A proprietary heat treatment makes the aluminum three...
