Emeco Navy Chair Catapult Test

Icona di stile, madre di tutte le sedie, interamente fatta a mano in alluminio riciclato per l'80 percento, peso piuma per una solidità senza eguali, la prima Emeco, l'inizio di una grande storia. Nata per la marina militare americana la ritroviamo in tutti i film e telefilm americani 

ed è bello cercare tra le scene i nostri pezzi di design preferiti, così come è facile ritrovare lei che è davvero onnipresente: buona visione
