Embody

 

 

 

For the past six years, Herman Miller has been working on the design and build of our next solution to workplace task seating; a solution that uses our deep knowledge of the modern workplace environment to bring to market a chair with improved levels of comfort and support; a chair with design features that would once again position Herman Miller at the forefront of task seating innovation, just as Aeron did 14 years ago. That chair, called Embody™ is due to be launched at Orgatec 2008.

 



Herman Miller rolled out a new luxury office chair called Embody. The chair features an exoskeleton, lots of levers and knobs and a price tag of $1,595.
The latest object of technophile lust is a sight to behold, with an exoskeleton climbing up its singular back and enough levers and knobs to land a Cessna. Herman Miller's much-anticipated office chair, the Embody (list price: $1,595), is finally rolling out this month. Six years and millions of dollars in the making, the Embody is ready to one-up its iconic predecessor, the Aeron, which in 1994 revolutionized the act of sitting down.

That is no easy task. The Aeron brilliantly anticipated the Digital Age by allowing workaholics to spend endless hours lashed to their computer screens without developing bedsores. With a mesh suspension system that conformed to a user's body shape, the Aeron generated more than $1.5 billion in revenue and looked so cool that it's still being used by Tina Fey on the sitcom 30 Rock and resides in the permanent collection of New York's Museum of Modern Art.

Embody Chair, or Aeron Part II

Can Man place a pricetag on the comfort of his rump? Yes. Yes he can. And the Embody chair—the sequel to the iconic, $1.5 billion grossing Aeron chair by Herman Miller—is probably way, way too good for your posterior at its $1,600 asking price. But that doesn't mean you can't gawk for a while.

Built from non-toxic and ecologically sustainable materials, the Embody is 96% recyclable. Though its mass appeal, of course, will be comfort. Packing seven different knobs and levers for every kind of adjustment you could desire, the seat is comprised of four layers—the bottom is a series of plastic bands providing suspension, the second is a sheet of coils for support, the third is a system hexagonal rings that shift with your weight and the final layer is a mesh that allows air circulation to keep the sitter cool.

The chair makes wild claims, like lowering a user's heart rate and helping oxygenate the blood stream. We can't affirm or deny such points, but we're pretty sure that the Embody is the snazziest looking office chair we've ever seen. And that's good enough for our butts.


Description

Embody has its own identity. Debuting yesterday, the Embody isn't as sleek as the Aeron but it's still quite a sight to behold as the back of the chair, with its 56 flexors, resembles a human spine flexing and bending to cradle the body. Designed by the late Bill Stumpf and Jeff Weber, the Embody was said to have been inspired by a pair of comfortable shoes, of all things. Even though it is meant to promote health and created to provide optimum support, the Embody still manages to look pretty damn cool.
