Designers: Charles and Ray Eames. The lounge chair and ottoman have their origin in Charles and Ray’s investigations into molding plywood and a desire to improve upon a familiar fixture in many living rooms: the lounge chair. Citing the English club chair as inspiration, Charles said he sought to design a modern version of that chair, one that had “the warm receptive look of a well-used first basemans mitt.� Almost immediately, the design became an icon of American design. Today, these pieces not only live in museums, but continue to offer comfort and style to interiors around the world. A universally recognized form, the set is available in a variety of veneers, multiple leather options, and two sizes. Whatever selection you make, you can be assured of the quality and authenticity of this design.
Cleaning & Maitenance
Hello -
My wife recently got me an Eames lounge. The crevasses of the leather have some dust and noticeable dirt, what is the best way to clean the leather?

There is a tab on the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman Product Page called “Care and Maintenance” which lists in detail how to clean each area of the Eames Lounge Chair. I have pasted the information we provide on cleaning and caring for leather below. If you have any further questions, please contact Herman Miller Customer Care at 888.798.0202 or hmstore@hermanmiller.com.
Leather
For normal cleaning, vacuum or dust frequently with a clean, dry cloth. If leather is soiled, it can be wiped with a damp soft cloth and a lather of any mild soap and a minimum amount of lukewarm water. Do not spot clean leather; clean the entire surface. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and dry with a clean, soft cloth.
For spots and spills, wipe excess liquid immediately with a clean cloth or sponge; let the leather air dry. If the spot is still visible, further cleaning may be necessary. Sponge the entire surface—seat, back, or chair arm—with clean, lukewarm water. Let the leather air dry; never use a hair dryer or other heat source to dry leather.
For stubborn spots and stains, apply a mild, nonabrasive soap solution with a clean, wet sponge. Rinse well and let air dry. For butter, oil, or grease, wipe the leather with a clean, dry cloth and let the remainder of the oil dissipate into the leather. Do not apply water or try to wash a grease spot.
Do not use saddle soap, cleaning solvents, oils, furniture polishes, varnishes, abrasive cleaners, detergents, or ammonia on leather; they will ruin the finish, causing it to become sticky and cracked.

Why does Slate Grey Back Finish look black, even though the same seat color appears lighter?
For the Mirra2 configurator, when you choose Slate Grey for the Back and Slate Grey for the Seat, the back looks almost black and the seat looks light grey. are they truly matching in reality and the online picture just looks different?
The Mirra 2 seat is an Airweave suspension seat material that allows more airflow to prevent heat buildup. This causes the color to look slightly lighter in our images than the seat back material which is fused to the butterfly back. The black and slate grey are different colors, and we would be happy to provide free material samples.

Designers: Bill Stumpf and Jeff Weber. Form doesnt just follow function with Embody. Function is on full display. This ergonomic office chairs highly technical structures—such as the spine-like Backfit, with its visible H-flexors—show how it bends to encourage seated movement. Embody is purposeful design that creates harmony between your mind and body, and between your body and work.
What is the height from floor to top of arm rest when the arm rest is at its minimum height?
The Embody Chair arm height adjusts as well as the seat height. When the arm height and seat height are at their minimum height, the height from the floor to the top of the arm rest is 22.5 inches. The height from the top of the floor to the top of the arm rest can range from 22.5-32 inches.

Aeron Chair
Designers: Bill Stumpf and Don Chadwick. Its the most well-known ergonomic office chair ever made. With good reason. As the first to replace fabric and foam with a breathable, woven suspension membrane—its innovative Pellicle seat and back—Aeron distributes your weight evenly, eliminating pressure points and heat buildup. The Kinemat tilt lets you recline fluidly, and PostureFit puts support where you need it most while seated—at the base of your spine.
Change from Aeron Posture Fit to one with Lumbar Support
I recently purchased an Aeron Chair with Posture Fit adjustment. Is it possible to change to one with the Lumbar Support later?
Yes, it is possible to switch to our PostureFit lumbar Support after purchasing a chair with the Adjustable Lumbar support.

Mirra Chair
Designers: Studio 7.5. A happy union of seemingly incompatible concepts: More support and less material. High performance and attractive price. Fewer adjustments and better fit. Does more and requires less.
is the adjustable lumbar support worth the extra cost
Is it necessary to add the adjustable lumbar support? also what is the difference between Mirra 1 and Mirra 2?
The type of back support is closely linked to the activities you do while seated. Since Mirra has a choice of either Adjustable Lumbar support or just the standard PostureFit sacral support, it is important to know how you move in your chair. If you recline, your head carries forward, rounding out the natural S shape of the spine. You can see that in the center graphic below. The Lumbar support will help guide the spine back into proper alignment while reclining. If you lean forward into your technology you can benefit from sacral support, or the region of the lower back that connects with the pelvis. Posturefit targets the sacral region and works like a hand to gently keep the pelvis supported and tilted forward. So, Adjustable Lumbar support if you recline, and PostureFit if you lean forward into your technology.
With the workplace always evolving, Studio 7.5 revamped the Mirra Chair to be more personal with the Mirra 2.
Mirra 2 moves with you and supports even your slightest movements. While Studio 7.5 retained the athletic attitude and intuitive adjustments of the original, they advanced the material and form of this idea in virtually every aspect of Mirra 2.

Dismantling
I understand that the everywhere table comes broken down and needs to be assembled. Would it be correct to assume that one could also disassemble it fairly easily later on in order to store it more easily?
Yes, the Everywhere Table can be taken apart and reassembled. If you are looking for a table that is easier to store, the Everywhere Flip Top Table is a good option. The table has locking casters, which allows the table to move easily across floors. The Everywhere Flip Top Table also has the ability to flip vertically for quick and easy storage with no disassembly required.

Designer: Tom Newhouse. A flexible, economical, and lightweight task light for your home that leaves a very small carbon footprint on the earth.
Wow, 200 lumens of light. Is that the best you can provide. What is that equivelent too, a 75w bulb?
The Flute Personal Light is designed for accent light use, such as a desk lamp, and does not provide as much light as a primary light would. 200 lumens of light is equivalent to a 10 watt bulb, but the lamp uses LED chips that last for 24 years, consuming 30-50% less energy than traditional light bulbs.
