Embody is Good for You
Embody lets your body move and keeps you well supported, becauseyour mind works best when you move freely and stress is minimizedon your muscles, bones, and tissues. Blood circulates better, heartrate goes down, more oxygen flows to the brain, and there is nodistracting discomfort or physical constraint. That's critical inour idea economy where innovation drives success and people getpaid for their thoughts and creativity.

Healthful Movement
New tilt technology. Embody's rotation points are within the seatand back, and the base of the back remains fixed relative to theseat; this encourages the body to move naturally into the mostpositive seated postures.

Consistent support. Whether you lean forward or recline, your lowerback support remains constant--no adjustments needed; users of allsizes can easily assume and maintain a reclined position.

Working recline posture. Embody encourages this most healthfulposture for computer users; working recline reduces compression ofthe spine and slows fluid loss from discs; plus, your head stays inline with your computer display.

Narrow backrest. Your arms move unimpeded, adding comfort andencouraging additional air movement into the lungs to feed yourbrain.

Supporting You Naturally
Mimics the spine. The back is "alive," adapting to the shape andmovement of your spine; it automatically adjusts to your shiftingpositions and supports you through the full range of workingpostures.

Backfit adjustment. No matter what your spinal curvature, thisadjustment lets you achieve a neutral, balanced posture and stayaligned with your computer display.

Gentle contact. Embody has no hard, rigid frames; edges flex sothere is no pressure on your legs and arms.


Conforming to You
Pixelated support. A matrix of pixels creates dynamic seat-and-backsurfaces that automatically conform to your every movement anddistribute your weight evenly.

Reduced stress. By fitting your form and reducing seated pressure,Embody increases blood circulation, which improves the flow ofoxygen and decreases heart rate.

One chair size fits every body. Embody automatically adapts to thewide variation in people's size, shape, posture, and spinal curve;seat depth adjusts to different thigh lengths; armrest motions fitthe broadest ranges.

Form = Function
The look communicates performance. The chair's profile, whichmimics the spine, is driven by its health-positive features.

Visual contrast and balance. When viewed from the back, thetechnology is exposed; when viewed from the front, you see organicshapes and curves.

Textiles add warmth. More like a skin than a covering; textiles aremeant to enhance, not cover up; they have "loft" for a cushy feel;light and air pass through; colors pair with two frame colors andthree base colors to simplify choice and appeal to universaltastes.

Helps the World Around You
Strict standards. The Embody chair adheres to the McDonoughBraungart Design Chemistry (MBDC) Cradle to Cradle protocol andsupports Herman Miller's commitment to the environment.

Certifications. Embody is MBDC Cradle to Cradle Silver certifiedand GREENGUARD certified; Embody can also provide credits for LEEDcertification.

Recylable. Embody is 95 percent recyclable, has 42 percent recycledcontent, and contains no PVCs.

Design Story

The Embody story began in the design studio of Jeff Weber and thelate Bill Stumpf. They had an idea: 'What if a design could gobeyond just minimizing the negative effects of sitting? What if wedesigned a chair that positively impacts your life so you can workand live better?"

Stumpf, designer or co-designer of Herman Miller's Aeron, Equa, andErgon work chairs, came to Herman Miller with the idea and said, "Ithink I have one more in me." Stumpf passed away in 2006. Workingclosely with a cross-functional team from Herman Miller, Webercarried on. As Embody's designer, Weber gave the chair its functionand form, building on Stumpf's inspiration.

Their idea arose out of their approach to design. "You can't designwithout empathy," says Weber, who also designed Herman Miller'sCaper chair. "Since design has become more technology based, we'vehad to sit in our chairs in front of computers for longer periodsof time--just like everyone else. We identify with the problemspeople have as a result of sitting, and we identify with their needto produce ideas."

Throughout the development of Embody, over 30 professionalscontributed a range of expertise. Physicians and PhDs in the fieldsof biomechanics, vision, physical therapy, and ergonomics helpedtest hypotheses, review prototypes, and conduct studies that helpedguide the development of the first health-positive chair.

In the earliest discussions with the experts, three hypotheses weretested on them:

Expert input on these hypothesis fueled Weber andStumpf's early thinking about the chair and formed the basis ofexperiments designed to establish if such a chair was possible.Prototypes followed, with experts sitting in them and offeringappraisals of what was good and what wasn't. Researchers conductedlaboratory experiments involving kinematics, preferred postures,pressure distribution, seated tasks, and metabolics. These guidedthe development of Embody and confirmed its health-positivebenefits.
