Form + Function Embodied in a Chair

Not only is it a delight to the eye, (well, my eye anyway, your taste may vary) but the new Herman Miller chair is, like it’s predecessor, built to function. Some may question the wisdom of paying $1600 for a chair (and I have certainly not purchased one at this time), but if you are like me and sit in front of a computer for a living, the purchase of a chair might be one of the most important purchases you make, next to your bed and your shoes.

Wired’s Review of the Embody Chair

I can image an alternate me, in a an alternate life that owns nothing but a memory foam bed, a computer, a closet with a few beautifully tailored (& comfy) clothes, a desk with ample light, and this chair. I am no where near that level of asceticism, yet maybe there’s a good balance between here and there.
