Wood and metal are furniture staples, but they have been classically rethought by Michael Young for their roles as components of the Lancaster chair. The cast aluminum seat and back are created to be indestructible, without compromising their chic, wearing either dark anodized or machine polished finishes. The wood legs are available in natural ash-wood and dark stain ash-wood. Emeco’s debut of the chair collection by the British designer will introduce the company’s first foray into component-based design. The Lancaster chair is brought together with materials meant to age richly, and maintain its stance as a good, sophisticated standard.

The craftsmanship of Murano’s master glass blowers inspired the design of this contemporary light created by Ronan & Erwin Bouroullec. Their idea to use traditional know-how from Venini, Italy gave birth to a lamp that balances the vulnerable nature of classically blown glass with the industrial look of hardware at the base, which is instead supported with a more delicate aluminum cylinder. The Murano glass color palette varies in function to the lamp, and ranges from pale pink to vibrant orange. Throw marble into the mix, and there shines a sophisticated display of light.
