Institute of Architecture and Design at KADK and Lifestyle & Design Cluster, invites you to the lecture of Gregg Buchbinder / CEO of Emeco.
Emeco is an American furniture manufacturer, based in Hanover - Pennsylvania.
In 1944 they started to build chairs for the US Navy. This was the beginning of a company, that has been around for 75 years and their Navy 1006 Chair has been declared to last forever!
Today, Emeco stands on the forefront of reusing waste materials to make new chairs – still to last.
“Thoughts from a chair”
Reuse. Recycle. Re-imagine. Begin with what’s left over. Turn it into what will last. 75 years on, that still feels pretty fresh.
