The Aeron chair, the next generation of work chairs from Herman Miller, embraces diversity—the diversity of human form and function in today's offices.

Consider all the sizes and shapes of men and women at work around the world today. Clearly, one chair designed for an "average" user can't fit all. In fact, traditional work chairs are often not suited to a worker's individual physique.



Consider, too, how most workers today must handle a variety of responsibilities, their work activities ranging from social interaction to technical administration. Chairs designed to support one posture for one task are not adequate. People need a chair that supports them in all postures as they move from intense work to formal meetings to relaxed conversations.

Bill Stumpf and Don Chadwick kept such diversity foremost in mind as they designed the Aeron chair. It's sized to fit more people more comfortably. The chair's sophisticated Kinemat tilt, a breakthrough in tilt dynamics, provides a smooth ride and proper support from forward-upright to reclining postures. Active adjustments are second nature, allowing the user to easily customize the chair to suit the particular task at hand.

The Aeron chair offers true cross-performance capability—the first successful union of management, task, conference, and lounge seating.

The Aeron chair also features a unique Pellicle suspension, which evenly distributes weight over the seat and back and conforms to each person's shape. The Pellicle material lets air pass through, adding to long-term comfort by preventing body heat build-up.

The distinctive appearance of the Aeron chair is an expression of its unique capabilities and innovative materials.

The Aeron chair: a new global standard in a new working world.
