The First Nesting Chair for the Brand Allows for Easy Space
Reconfiguration for Different Uses
ZEELAND,
Mich., Sept. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Herman
Miller introduces Fuld Nesting Chair designed in collaboration with
Stefan Diez—a sleek, minimalist design that enables flexible
configurations for workspaces.
With its refreshing aesthetic, Fuld is a standout among nesting
chairs—enabling organizations to reconfigure space for different
uses such as breakout sessions, corporate training, and educational
events—without sacrificing style. Available in dipped-in-color
options consisting of the seat, seat-back, and legs in one hue and
dual-color combinations, Fuld elevates the experience of a nesting
chair.
Fuld eschews the typical X shape of a nesting chair for a
streamlined inverted Y with tubular arms. The back has a touch of
elasticity, which keeps you comfortable as you shift. With its
unique lines and variety of colors, the reimagined seating mainstay
enlivens any space, even when stored in the open.
"We're excited to welcome Stefan
Diez to the Herman Miller portfolio after his work for the
wider MillerKnoll collective," says Malisa
Bryant, Senior Vice President of Global Product, "Diez
prioritizes sustainability and innovation within his designs which
have long been core values for Herman Miller."
A long-standing commitment to the environment drove Diez's
design of Fuld. Its minimalistic design and pioneering one-piece
construction where the back rest, arms and back legs are one
continuous piece. The chair comprises just two materials for easy
recycling at the end of its lifecycle. An optional 3D Knit textile
seat is also available that is made from 50 percent post-consumer
recycled content, and because it's knitted to the chair's exact
dimensions, there's no fabric waste.
"I am thrilled to have designed the first nesting chair for
Herman Miller," says Stefan Diez.
"There's no other company that cares so much about engineering and
quality. It's very supportive, it's quite unparalleled, very
forward-thinking. The collaboration with Herman Miller never feels
like it's driven by constraints, but driven more by an idea. It's
clear what we're working for: The product that comes out from the
process is not a product that is a compromise, and that's what I
love.
The chair was previewed during MillerKnoll Design Days where it
was announced as a MetropolisLikes Award Winner. It will be
available to contract customers for purchase through Herman Miller
and MillerKnoll dealers. Visit the Herman Miller website
