Last week on Bones Booth was at war with the other FBI agents in his office for the ultimate chair. A throne if you will. Unfortunately his quaint little leather chair is a meek plebe in comparison to the Embody Chair by Herman Miller. This is the true ultimate sitting experience. Unfortunately at a $1,600 asking price it is out of reach of those who’d benefit most: the cube jockeys. Still, there it is in the picture to the right. We’ll get to the claims in a moment, but it sure does look like a nice office chair.
The Embody is 96% recyclable, made of non-toxic materials. The chair is awash in knobs and levers for you to adjust it any way you see fit, or just to pass the boring office hours away twisting and turning things. The seat –the heart of the chair—is comprised of four layers: plastic bands for suspension (helpful during office chair races), coils for support, hexagonal rings that shift with your weight, and finally a layer of mess that allows air circulation.
From there the maker of the Embody go into slightly loony marketing speak by claiming it can lower the sitter’s heart rate or help oxygenate the blood stream. Yeah, so can getting up and taking a walk outside. Or not flipping out when a coworker forgets to include a coversheet on an important fax. I don’t think you need a chair to help you with that. But you can’t argue with the fact the Embody will make you look and feel like the supreme ruler of the office.
The Embody will be available in 13 colors and three finishes starting in early 2009. Start saving now.
