As anyone who’s worked in an office would know, Herman Miller’s Aeron is the chair to have at your desk for both comfort and status. As a guy who’s worked at his share of Silicon Valley startups the net boom and bust, I’ve only had the privilege of stealing Aerons from coworkers when they weren’t looking; never actually being actually senior enough to sit on one full time. Things are different now, my fellow prisoners, with Herman Miller’s latest creation, the Embody. Its $US1600 body was designed by Bill Stumpf, who was also responsible for—among other projects—its famous predecessor, the Aeron. It’s no surprise that the Embody feels very good.
