Received these photos from Emeco.
We made one “20-06†chair for Norman Foster’s 75th birthday – hand polished – it took about 26 hours! The profiles are so slim, that the slightest wrong movement and the entire chair has to be done again. We never offer the chair in polished, just brushed anodized – but you can see its magnificent! If we had charged for it, it would have been 10, 000$
Its still in the Foster Office, I think. No one sits in it…
Thanks Emeco for this “Chair in the Air”!

Wow, talk about creativity. This is certainly more than what people anyone would expect, even as a birthday present.
