Herman Miller ® Eames Aluminum Group Management Chair

Charles Ormond Eames, Jr (1907–1978) and Bernice Alexandra "Ray" (née Kaiser) Eames (1912–1988) were American designers, who worked in and made major contributions to modern architecture and furniture. They also worked in the fields of industrial and graphic design, fine art and film.

• Aluminum Group chairs were originally developed in 1958 as a special project by Ray Eames for a private residence being designed by Eero Saarinen and Alexander Girard.
• At the time, the furniture was called the "leisure group," or "indoor-outdoor group" since it was meant to address the lack of quality outdoor furniture on the market.
• The seat-back suspension was a major technical achievement and represented a departure from the concept of the chair as a solid shell.
• Wonderfully comfortable, the chairs became the basis for several other Eames designs, including the Soft Pad chairs.

• Unique Suspension
• Continuous piece of seat-back upholstery is stretched tautly between aluminum side ribs
• Firm and flexible "sitting pocket" subtly conforms to body's shape
• Sitting Comfort
  • Layered vinyl cushioning within fabric or leather upholstery
  • Cygnus™ mesh material designed specifically for Eames Aluminum Group seating
  • Cygnus is a self-contouring, flexing material that provides aeration, even weight distribution, and long term comfort
• Quality Standards
• Fabrics perform to industry standards and pass all
  applicable testing
• Five criteria assure fabrics perform optimally
• Crocking Resistance (colorfastness)
• Ultra-Violet Light Resistance (fade resistance)
• Physical Properties (resistance to pilling, seam slippage, and tearing)
• Abrasion (ability to withstand surface wear)
