The chair's name comes from the Japanese word for clam and features an [organic form](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/altherr-dsile-park) that is both organic as well as stylish to fit in well with existing office decor. The chair incorporates the sophisticated design philosophy of Fukasawa, while also fitting in neatly with Miller's existing core range of pieces. Priced starting at $1,395, the chair comes in two back heights and eight color options to choose from. Fukasawa spoke on the Herman Miller x Naoto Fukasawa Asari chair saying, "My goal was to inspire joy and create a new form, ultimately becoming the next upholstered icon. A core part of my design ethos is to simplify the way we live, imbuing each creation with an attraction that makes people feel dear to it, a timelessness and longevity that enhances a human process.” Image Credit: Herman Miller, [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2023/5/herman-miller-naoto-fukasawa-asari-chair-info), [hermanmiller](https://www.hermanmiller.com/products/seating/office-chairs/asari-chair-by-herman-miller/) ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.2/10 - Popularity: 84% | Activity: 86% | Freshness: 16% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Organic Office Furniture:** Design and create more office furniture with organic shapes and styles to fit in well with existing office decor while remaining functional. - **Collaborative Furniture Design:** Collaborate with designers to create unique pieces of furniture that fit in well with existing offerings for a broader appeal to customers. - **Ergonomic Seating:** Design comfortable and supportive seating options that promote good posture and overall health for office workers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Manufacturing:** As the demand for more organic and ergonomic office furniture increases, there is a lucrative market opportunity for furniture manufacturing companies to capitalize on these trends. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can take advantage of the rising trend of organic office furniture by incorporating these designs into clients’ offices and improving workplace ergonomics. - **Office Supplies and Equipment Distribution:** Distributors of office supplies and equipment can offer a wider range of ergonomic and stylish office chairs to their customers, meeting their growing demands for healthier and more visually appealing workspaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Comfortable Artful Sculpted Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asari.md) - [Supportively Stylish Office Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knoll-newson.md) - [Stylish Ergonomic Office Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-ergonomic-office-chair.md) - [Sustainable Ergonomic Corporate Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summa-x-maribo.md) - [Mid-Century Ergonomic Office Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zeph-chair-1.md) - [Minimalist Ergonomic Office Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ergonomic-office-chair1.md) - [Stylish Executive Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-executive-chair.md) - [Ergonomic Office Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-ergonomic-office-chair.md) - [Sleek Posture-Correcting Seats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ayur-chair-1.md)
