Aeron Chair







Designed in 1994 by Bill Stumpf and Don Chadwick for Herman Miller, the Aeron chair revolutioned task chairs. Given the extreme emphasis on creating an ergonomically accurate and mass producible office chair, I have no doubt that CAD was both integral and necessary to the design and development of the Aeron Chair.






I think that there is a unique aesthetic synthesis between form and function in the Aeron chair. I have yet to use this chair for any significant amount of time but do think that it is a good example of CAD enabling new and potentially revolutionary modes of design.

I just purchased an Aeron Chair from www.OfficeDesigns.com and I can't be happier. They shipped the chair for free and gave me a break on the pricing. They had many models to choose from, but the product specialist I spoke to helped me get the perfect one for my home office.
