Herman Miller Caper Stacking Chair

Caper chairs and stools were designed by Jeff Weber of Studio Weber + Associates. His goal, and ours, was to create comfortable, mobile seating that’s also affordable. “Too much good design seems expensive,” Weber says, “I wanted to break that cliché.”

Weber believes that design is “the connective tissue” between people and the environment, and that the quality of that design—whether of a building or a chair—has a profound effect on quality of life. Caper seating, he says, achieves its high level of performance and comfort by “using standard materials in novel ways.”
