Hudson armchair
Philippe Starck
The Hudson, designed for the Hudson hotel in NYC, is Emeco and Starck's first collaboration.
Starck described the chair as "washing the details from the Navy Chair". It takes an additional 8 hours to polish each Hudson chair.
Hudson is in MoMa's permanent collection.
"Working with Emeco has allowed me to use a recycled material and transform it into something that never needs to be discarded - a tireless and unbreakable chair to use and enjoy for a lifetime. It is a chair you never own, you just use it for a while until it is the next persons turn. A great chair never should have to be recycled. This is good consideration of nature and man kind."
