The New Global Standard That Fits
People of All Sizes and Postures
A chair designed just for people of average size will
never satisfy
everyone. Nor will a chair designed for a single posture
suited to a single
job activity ever be enough. What we need is a chair
that fits people of
all sizes and postures. The Aeron, the next-generation
work chair from
Herman Miller, accommodates the full variety of postures
we require in our offices.

Styling and Features
 |
Bill Stumpf and Don Chadwick considered diversity to be of the greatest
importance in their creation of the Aeron chair. The Kinemat tilt that is a distinctive feature of the chair supports the full
range of motion from forward leaning through reclining. The chair is built
so that users can take advantage of the many adjustment features to easily customize it for a particular job. The height and depth of lumbar support may also be adjusted to fit the natural shape of a user's spinal column. |
Unique Functionality and Comfort
The Aeron chair is characterized by its unique Pellicle
suspension, which
adjusts itself to the user's posture to distribute weight
evenly across the
entire seat. The Pellicle material also enhances airflow,
providing comfort
even over extended periods of use. The arm adjustment
dial allows the user to set the arm to the height desired,
and the adjustable arm angle supports a wide range of
work activities.
In this way, the Aeron chair succeeds as the first
chair endowed with
universality, in the true sense of the word: it is adaptable
to a wide
range of environments, from the executive office, specific
work stations
and conference rooms to the home lounge. The Aeron chair
is indeed the new global standard for new office environments.
Aeron Side Chair
Combine Aeron chairs with Aeron side chairs to create
the perfect office
seating conditions.
