I think it’s rare and beautiful when… “what you are” and “what you want to be” line up to be the same thing [my latest deep thought]. Then, on top of that… do a stellar job marketing it. Meet Emeco (Hanover, PA). I was amazed by their chair designs, their story and their presentation. It was utterly inspiring. That’s when I thought to myself, they know exactly who they are.
Here it is [direct from their site]…
We make chairs. That’s what we do.
Handmade from 80% recycled Aluminum.
It’s not easy. In fact it takes 77 steps to get there.
Designed to last for 150 years.
Now that’s what we call sustainability.
Now that is beautiful [and rare]. I am very proud that a business like Emeco exists in Pennsylvania. They are a real inspiration.
Kate, along with her husband, bring together farm, food and design at The Steel Fork. They also design and create sculptural metalworks using recycled farm machinery – Gatski Metal. Kate is also the mother of two busy little children.
Incredible! What an amazing place right in my hometown. I drive by this place all the time and never knew what it was.
