DESIGNER
Philippe Starck
Philippe Starck helped transform Emeco from a military supplier into a top design brand. In 1999, after Starck used the Navy chair in the Paramount Hotel, he met Gregg Buchbinder, Emeco's new owner. Surprised to learn the company wasn't "owned by a bunch of old army guys," Starck proposed designing a chair for them, starting a long and fruitful collaboration.
