    I was doing my thing in London in the late 90’s – you know, hanging at the Met Bar, getting fussy about pin-stripe suits and enjoying the exchange rate (20 to 1 when I left, can you believe it!). But one thing stood out during my time in London, and that was the chairs my banker mates had behind their desks. They intrigued me no end! I could never get my head around how expensive they were – something like R15,000 a chair I was told at the time! Granted, they looked gorgeous, but that’s a little steep…

    I recently did some investigating, with a view to getting myself one for the new 2oceansvibe Media premises. You’ll never believe how much I found them for…

    Ok first I want to tell you that I found out the name of the chair – it is a Herman Miller Aeron chair and it turns out there is only one place to buy them in South Africa – All Office. Seriously.. I gave the guys a tinkle and quickly learnt that this particular piece of furniture has been voted the ‘Design of the decade‘ and is featured in New York’s Museum of Modern Art.

    What’s more, it’s not NEARLY as expensive as it used to be.

    I acquired one in a snap and will gladly enjoy the 12-year 24-HOURS-A-DAY-USAGE Warranty. Did you hear what I said there? They are guaranteeing you it won’t break if you sit on it for 12 years, without ever leaving the chair. But don’t worry about getting piles – this thing isn’t known as ‘the most comfortable chair in the world,’ for nothing!

    All I’m saying is they’re going for less than R6,995 at All Office. But that’s not the reason why All Office has partnered 2oceansvibe as our preferred supplier of office furniture. Oh no, it’s more than that. Besides the fact that we get on with the owner and his team like a house on fire, they just happen to be the EXCLUSIVE supplier of Herman Miller furniture. And Herman Miller is not just for the office, my friends.

    Oh no…

    Remember this design?

    Yes, of course you do!

    It’s called the Herman Miller Eames Lounge Chair. Follow that link and check out how many big movies the chair features in. Even Joey and Chandler had one in their apartment in Friends. I swear!

    We’re big fans of anything ‘iconic’ here at 2oceansvibe…

    Head on down to All Office and see what’s happening. Mention 2oceansvibe to the owner, Bernard, and I’m sure he’ll give you an even bigger discount than what he’s giving already.
