Even Better

While it’s true that iconic designs are best left unaltered, you can still improve on perfection – as in the case of the new Aeron office chair.

While it’s true that iconic designs are best left unaltered, you can still improve on perfection – as in the case of the new Aeron office chair. With over 7 million sold worldwide, the Aeron was designed by Bill Stumpf and Don Chadwick in 1994 and became an instant hit with its sleek and ergonomic design. For its new update, Don returned to the drawing board and spent two years studying how to include even better features in the chair. A new forward angle now lets your back keep closer contact to the chair, while supporting the natural S-shape of the spine. With custom reclines and moveable armrests, as well as an improved fabric that distributes weight evenly, you’ll probably not want to get up once you’re seated. 

THE NEW AERON IS AVAILABLE IN THREE SIZES. CARBON (GREY) RETAILS FOR $2,099, AND GRAPHITE (BLACK) FOR $1,999. THEY ARE AVAILABLE AT XTRA, #02-48 MARINA SQUARE, TEL: 6336-0688.
