Casters
- Three different caster options can accommodate any style of flooring:
- Standard casters – work well on most low pile office carpets (wheels 2 ½” diameter)
- Deep-carpet casters – loose design and larger size (3” diameter) help the user avoid snags and move easily across thicker carpets
- Hardwood casters – thin rubber coating prevents damage to flooring and provides greater traction on non-carpeted surfaces

DESIGNERS DON CHADWICK AND BILL STUMPF
Herman Miller turned to designers Don Chadwick and Bill Stumpf to design a totally new kind of chair. Chadwick's and Stumpf's previous collaboration had produced the groundbreaking Equa chair.
The two designers began this development process with a clean slate, with no assumptions about form or material, but with some strong convictions about what a chair ought to do for a person.
Ergonomically, it ought to do more than just sit there. It should actively intercede for the health of the person who sits in it longer than she should.
Functionally, it ought to move and adjust as simply and naturally as possible. It should support a person in any position he cares to assume, at any task his office job serves up.
Anthropometrically, it ought to be more inclusive than its predecessors. It should do more than accommodate small or large people; it should really fit them.
Environmentally, it ought to be benign. It should be sparing of natural resources, durable and repairable, designed for disassembly and recycling; made largely of recycled materials, the Aeron Work Stool is designed to last a long time, with parts that get the most wear easily replaced and recycled. It’s just what you would expect in a well thought-out design.
The design that fulfilled these criteria met all expectations and shattered some of them. It wasn't upholstered. It wasn't padded. It was dimensioned in three models that looked exactly alike and that had nothing to do with their users' job titles. It didn't look like any other office chair. And its revolutionary concept incorporated more patentable ideas than any previous Herman Miller research program.
