Not ‘looks like cardboard’ furniture, not ‘has a little piece of cardboard stuck somewhere’ furniture, not even ‘half made out of cardboard and the other half normal’ furniture; no! real, bona fide, start to finish and top to bottom CARDBOARD furniture!
Have you been biding your time, practicing the whole “patience is a virtue” thing all the while looking for that perfect opportunity to swoop in purchase your new Aeron Chair? Well, if you have then I’ve got some great news for ya, your virtuous mission of self-restraint is over! There has never been a better opportunity to purchase a new Aeron than right now at the Annual Aeron Summer Sale going on now at Madison Seating.
The brainchild of Industrial Product Designer and Jerusalem native Itay Kirshenbaum, the furniture you see pictured above is… wait for it… grown. Yes, that’s right, watered and grown.

Using east Asian techniques imported from Toyota, the Herman Miller manufacturing company has achieved incredible efficiency while empowering its workers.
As the days of summer progress and temperatures continue to rise, some of us (myself included) scramble for the air conditioned refuge of the indoors, and only venture out when absolutely necessary, and even then, only when the promise of an air conditioned vehicle awaits. For others, more tolerant of the heat than I, this is the time of year when it seems as if the great outdoors are calling them by name, and they seize every opportunity to bask in the warmth of the summer sun.
It is to the latter that I address this post.
Any conversation that begins with “office chair” must inevitably turn to the great and incomparable Aeron by Herman Miller. The very embodiment of ergonomic perfection and unanimously held to be the perfect office chair, the Aeron has been the gold standard for as long as it has been on the market. Loaded with incredible features and custom-crafted by the unrivaled masters of office chair design at Herman Miller the aeron continues to reign supreme and unchallenged in the world of office furniture.
“…the land of the free (shipping!) and the home of the brave!”.
