The Mirra Chair, by Herman Miller

When we think of the iconic executive chair manufacturer Herman Miller, we  generally tend to think of the Aeron™ and rightly so. The Aeron™ has certainly cemented it’s place at the very top of the ergonomic totem pole, with it’s unparalleled ergonomic design and standard of comfort.

However, the Mirra, also by Herman Miller, may be one of the few other ergonomic options that may be mentioned in the same breath as it’s big brother, the Aeron™.

The Mirra is a design that was achieved with international cooperation by Herman Miller and Studio 7.5, a German design firm. It’s also certified, 96% recyclable and 42% fabricated with material derived from recycled resources.

Here are just a few of the specs on this uber-ergonmic masterpiece…

Ode to The Aeron™

Like the tyrannical medieval kings, who reigned with black hearts and iron fists.
Like the emperors of old, who dominated the great civilizations of the past.
Like the mighty monarchs of  biblical worlds, who ruled with wisdom and kindness.
Like the ancient pharaohs, upon their thrones.
Like Solomon, King of Kings, who sat amongst the lions.
So stand the modern monarchs, they who sit upon the Aeron™  Throne.

Capitalist, entrepreneur, CEO.
The conquerors of today.
They sit upon the Aeron™.

Admiral of the executive board,
As he directs his commercial fleet,
He sits upon the Aeron™.

The corporate legal Baron,
As he wages epic battles,
He sits upon the Aeron™.

The Tech world wizards,
As they weave their programming spells,
They sit upon the Aeron™.

Just as there can be no ruler without his lavish throne.
There can be no chairman without his Aeron™.

Your Aeron™  is here.
Your Aeron™ awaits.

Aeron™ Chair, the Untold Story…

Yup, as the title so subtly suggests, we are back to my favorite topic – The Aeron™ ergonomic miracle chair by Herman Miller.

Today’s  post concerns a much lesser known aspect of the Aeron™ chair, it’s history and development. We are all familiar with the Aeron™ as the quintessential must have office accessory of the modern workplace. To those in the know, the Aeron™ is both an ultimate comfort item and coveted status symbol. To be an Aeron™ user, is to be the proud owner of an office chair that is sleek, stylish and on the cutting edge of ergonomic design.

News flash, it was not intended to be that way. Not at all.

Aeron™ Looking Good in Wood!

Good morning all,

By now you should all be familiar with my Aeron™ Chair obsession, and I will ask that you indulge me once more as I reflect today, on a slightly woodier version of the worlds most coveted office chair.

Just when you thought the perfect office chair model could not possibly be improved upon, along comes a design student at  UW-Madison, (which is actually the alma mater of Mr Bill Stumpf, co-creator of the Aeron™) and, using reclaimed barn wood, produces a wooden version of the classic office masterpiece.

The Aeron™ Chair by Herman Miller

 

Based in Zeeland, Michigan, Herman Miller, Inc., is a major American manufacturer of office furniture, equipment and home furnishings. Highly acclaimed and well regarded, it is likely the most prolific and influential producer of furniture of the modernist style. One of Herman Miller’s most influential contributions to the developing field of ergonomics and spine-friendly sitting, is the Aeron™ chair designed in 1994 by Don Chadwick and Bill Stumpf.
