Chairs, Chair Design and Chair Designers
French designer Philippe Starck
If you are into chairs and design like me, you will love to hear this not so new but still valid explanation by designer Philippe Starck on his collaboration with Emeco.
Emeco itself has another video, Citizen, where you can see him at work with Gregg Buchbinder, the current owner of Emeco. Note how Philippe pronounces Buchbinder 🙂
