Aeron demonstrated a pioneering step in ergonomic and material innovation, offering a comfortable solution without the standard use of foam, fabric, or leather. It changed people&#8217;s perception of what an office chair could be\u2014and, in doing so, soon found a place in popular culture.  <\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1750677457 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_1529499384\">\n\t\t<div class=\"bg section-bg fill bg-fill  bg-loaded\" >\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_904181313\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-21.jpg\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-21.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-21-650x366.jpg 650w, https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-21-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-21-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-21-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-21-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_904181313 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1529499384 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_2089499439\">\n\t\t<div class=\"bg section-bg fill bg-fill  bg-loaded\" >\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"is-divider divider clearfix\" ><\/div>\n<div class=\"row align-center\"  id=\"row-292180879\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-558104239\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_516747991\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner image-cover dark\" style=\"padding-top:75%;\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-20.jpg\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-20.jpg 450w, https:\/\/design.novoambiente.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aeron-20-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_516747991 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1145040147\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h2 class=\"mb-5\"><strong>Remastered by Don Chadwick, 2016<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Fast-forward to today, and the same criteria serve as the foundation for an all-new Aeron.
