AERON CHAIR

The 'Aeron chair' is a product of Herman Miller, designed in 1994 by Don Chadwick and Bill Stumpf. It is an ergonomic chair which is expensive but regarded by many as very comfortable. The chair became a symbol of the rise and fall of the dot-com industry in the late 1990s. However, its breakthrough design has gained it a spot in the New York Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection.
The chair is not upholstered. Instead, the seat and back are made of a semi-transparent and flexible mesh called a pellicle. Another noteworthy feature is that the Aeron is manufactured in three different sizes, A, B and C for Small, Medium and Large respectively. You can check the size of a given chair by feeling the number of dots (1, 2 or 3) under the handle at the top of the back.

The initial struggle to find a market for the chair is discussed in Malcolm Gladwell's book ''Blink''.
