Foster + Partners Industrial Design has designed '20-06', an aluminium chair and stool for Emeco, the Aluminium Chair Company. '20-06' recalls Emeco's classic 10-06 Navy ® Chair - the all-aluminium icon first made for submarines in WWII, while expressing a refined structure and modern inference. Both “20-06” and the classic 10-06 have an estimated 150-year lifespan. The sleek new chair features an ultra-slim, all-aluminium frame, tempered for strength and hand-made at the historic Hanover Pennsylvania factory using Emeco's proprietary “77 Step Process”.
