A foundation for modern furniture design
Timeless eleganceIt's amazing how a chair designed in 1958 for the outdoors can remain contemporary yet classic in 21st-century indoor spaces. With clean, streamlined lines, it's at home, in elegant offices, and in cutting-edge startups.
Innovative Comfort Never one to put appearance over substance, Charles and Ray Eames developed an innovative suspension system that creates a "sitting pocket" that is highly supportive and flexible. The suspension is achieved by tautly stretching seamless upholstery over a lightweight aluminum frame.
Designed to Last This flexible chair from the Eames Aluminum Group has been a perennial favorite since its introduction in 1958, and for good reason. Its graceful silhouette blends seamlessly into any home or office decor. Available in a variety of material options, you can create your own style with a distinctive shape that will stand the test of time and create a design that stands the test of time wherever you place it. 
A major technological achievement Known for their commitment to using materials with precision, the Eameses used die-cast aluminum for the seat frame.
He designed a chair with taut upholstery that had no seams . The resulting back and seat suspension was a highly technical achievement, breaking away from the traditional concept of a rigid shell chair. These chairs became the Aluminum Group chairs, and Herman Miller began producing them in 1958. While still popular, the chair has continued to be refined and evolved over the years. 
Charles and Ray Eames
Charles and Ray Eames , a husband and wife duo with a strong sense of adventure, curiosity and boundless passion, created a formidable husband and wife design team. Their collaboration has allowed them to take furniture to a new level. Clean and modern. Playful and functional. Sleek, sophisticated, beautiful and simple. That is what makes Eames unique, now and always.
The pair loved working to combine art and science, design and architecture, process and product, style and function. "Details aren't just details. They make the product."
This unique concept didn't come about overnight, but was developed over time.
Design is about solving fundamental human problems
Founded in 1923 (its predecessor, Star Furniture Company, was founded in 1905), Herman Miller bet its survival on contemporary furniture during the Great Depression of the 1930s. This gamble was a huge success, and in 1945 Herman Miller stopped producing traditional furniture and focused its business on contemporary furniture, which would later be called modern furniture. In 1960, the company began exploring the true needs of office workers and the needs of companies and organizations. They realized that office productivity was a major issue in business. The "Action Office" that was developed in this way became the standard for subsequent office systems.
Herman Miller considers innovation to be the result of research, not a goal. Innovation comes from research into customer needs, exploration of materials and processes, and design in response to social and economic innovation. Of course, designers add inspiration on top of that. Charles and Ray Eames' plywood chairs, Robert Propst's Action Office, Bill Stumpf's Ergon and Aeron chairs, and Ayse Birsel's Resolve system are all born from such interactions. What connected them to Herman Miller is the shared belief that "design exists to solve fundamental human problems." It is the passion to create new designs from research into the human body structure and the environment surrounding humans, rather than designing for the sake of design.
The quality control department repeats the industry standard 100,000 seat tests 1 million times. The unparalleled research and development department develops from the material, and the manufacturing department realizes the most advanced manufacturing process. In all of these, Herman Miller never forgets its idea of creating new designs by researching the human body and the environment. Herman Miller's products are the inevitable form that was born from researching the problems related to the act of sitting. In order to save global resources and reduce the environmental burden, Herman Miller's products strive to improve the durability and reliability of its products, and the product warranty period for work chairs is 12 years. Another aspect of innovation, "taking risks," is equally important. Herman Miller strives to always maintain a willingness to take risks. As the company expands and the responsibility for capital increases, the pressure to minimize risk has also increased. However, Herman Miller continues to take risks to bring out new products that it is confident will be successful - and sometimes products with revolutionary qualities that will change the times.
