Pattern 513

Emu's latest challenge is called Pattern, a family of chairs and tables in pressed and molded sheet metal designed by Arik Levy. The chair shell is made using the deep drawing process, starting with a single sheet of steel with mechanical properties speci

ally designed to obtain the desired shapes. The legs are also made by the deep drawing of a metal sheet, which is then joined to the structures with an advanced welding process (TIG). The final effect is that of a monolithic steel structure. A distinctive

hexagonal pattern decorates the seat and backs of the chairs, and is repeated on the table tops as well.
