Herman Miller has always been a giant in the work chair industry, with a massive catalogue of beautiful, iconic, comfortable, ergonomic, and yes, expensive chairs all having received their due on the national and international stage. However, the modern moment has moved away in some respects from the monolithic furniture of the 20th century, and now flexibility, adaptability, and value are more and more important to businesses and buyers. That's why Herman Miller has invested in designs and designers that are interested in those things and more, who want to make useful furniture, but who also bear the unmistakable stamp of class and quality that has made Herman Miller and international name. Say hello to the Herman Miller Caper Chair.
The Herman Miller Caper Chair is a new arrival on the scene of flexible, playful office furniture. It's got a breezy feel and a curvilinear, engaging profile. The back of the chair is almost freestanding, relying very little on traditional support (poles or bars that run up the sides of the chair, all the way to the shoulder). The small holes that dot the seat and back not only look great, they allow air to pass freely between the user and the atmosphere, cutting down on heat buildup and discomfort. They also bring to mind a part of designer Jeff Weber's design philosophy; that industrial design items like chairs and desks should be the connective tissue between people and their environments. The holes make it seem as if the Caper Chair is both; a solid piece of design fading to the environment, and vice versa. Another part of Weber's design criteria, that every piece of material be both aesthetically pleasing and functional, is expressed in the simple materials of the chair. There are the legs, polished and elegant, and all one piece. And then the sweeping, gentle curves of the back and seat, which are separated but similar. The chair comes in a variety of colors and finishes, the better to accentuate our room, office, or floor. There is an element of partnership in the design, as there is with all of the products here at Smart Furniture; the customer is always the final designer, choosing the right finishes and colors for their taste and space.
