Starck Icon Chair

Filed under: Decor

The spare and bare chair shown here is the latest Philippe Starck creation. It's the new Icon chair designed for Emeco, the Aluminum Chair Company. The new chair will be launched at Milan’s 2006 Salone Internazionale del Mobile this April and it is handmade of 100% aluminum. The stacking chairs have an estimated lifespan of 150 years and a lifetime guarantee. In the press release, Gregg Buchbinder, Emeco’s Chairman says that: “Working with Starck is like making love. I don’t know why it feels so good or works so well, I just follow my heart." Ah, Starck, he's so irresistible. Retails prices for the chairs start at $350 and there is also an Icon barstool (shown after the jump).
