Aeron Chair — Herman Miller

A standard, refined over time.

Designed by Bill Stumpf and Don Chadwick, Aeron redefined what a task chair could be.
Support is built into its structure. Air moves through it. Posture is guided, not forced.

It responds to the body in motion, maintaining comfort throughout the day.

Material innovation continues to evolve the piece.
Now composed with over 50% recycled content, including ocean-bound plastic, Aeron reflects a broader commitment to responsible design.

Color enters with intention.
New finishes, Nightfall and Jasper, extend the palette into deeper, more grounded tones—functioning as near-neutrals that bring warmth and continuity to a space.

Refinements continue beneath the surface.
A lighter aluminum base reduces material without compromising performance, while lower-impact resins further reduce the chair’s overall footprint.

Performance expands as well.
The C-size now supports up to 400 lbs, maintaining the same standard of comfort and durability across a broader range of users.

More than an icon, it remains a benchmark.
A study in performance, precision, and restraint.
