When architect Tadao Ando first opened his Osaka office in 1969, he purchased four Hans Wegner Wishbone Chairs.

The Sezz Collection was conceived when French designer Christophe Pillet and Pennsylvania-based Emeco collaborated on a seating line for the Sezz Hotel in Saint-Tropez, France. Made of 80% recycled aluminum, the pieces in the line, including stools and swivel, side, and lounge chairs, are treated, welded, and brushed in the same 77-step, handcrafted process used since the 1940s to create the original 1006 Navy chair.
