The design inspiration for the Herman Miller Sayl chair is Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco where the famous designer, Yves Behar, lives. At the heart of this ergonomic office chair is the full back suspension support which is molded in a 3D Intelligent™ material. The suspension material is stretched from the Y-Tower at the back of the chair just as cables are stretched from the towers of a suspension bridge. The tension is greater in the transition areas, from the thoracic to the lumbar areas and between the lumbar area and sacrum. "Hinge points" allow these areas to flex and support the healthy, forward rotation of the pelvis. At the same time, less tension in other parts of the back encourages a full range of seated movement.

The rear of the Herman Miller Sayl chair is built around the Y shaped Y-Tower™ central support and this in turn connects into the other main component known as the ArcSpan™ that effectively forms the lower part of this ergonomic office chair's frame. The ArcSpan™ brings together the arm structure and tilt mechanism into a single component and the design has great strength as well as saving on materials and the overall weight of the Herman Miller Sayl chair.
