Herman Miller History
At Herman Miller, design starts with the person - the products and how to apply them follow. Their goal is to enable individuals to live and work at their most safe, effective and motivated levels. Their furniture creates health-positive environments that go beyond “fitting” people to their equipment, to actually helping them thrive.
Founded in 1923 and recognized today throughout the world as an innovator in office and residential furniture design, Herman Miller has been ranked since 1986 among the top ten in Fortune Magazine’s annual list of the 500 most admired companies.
In the 1970s, Herman Miller was deep into research in the field of office ergonomics and work seating and challenged designer Bill Stumpf to rethink traditional designs of office chairs. Ten years of research produced the award-winning Ergon chair in 1976. Building upon what they had learned, Stumpf, in collaboration with designer, Don Chadwick, created the Equa chair in 1984 and began working in the early 1990s on a design for the world’s most comfortable office chair. Keeping in mind Charles Eames’ point that chairs should be designed for how people sit rather than how they should sit, they set about designing a chair that would: (1) Promote the health of the person sitting in it (2) Move and adjust as simply as possible (3) Support a person in any position (4) Really fit large or small people (5) Be environmentally responsible. In 1994, Don Chadwick and Bill Stumpf introduced their new office chair called Aeron (derived from the word aeration, which describes how the mesh suspension promotes comfort), which became an immediate worldwide success and earned a spot in the New York Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) as well.
In 1933, new furniture designs created by Herman Miller designer Gilbert Rohde exhibiting the smooth lines and unembellished shapes of the emerging mid-century modern furniture style were exhibited at the Chicago World’s Fair. In 1944, Rohde’s successor George Nelson designed such enduring icons as the Platform bench, and was famously responsible for teaming the company with such influential design artists as Alexander Girard, Isamu Noguchi and Charles and Ray Eames. Their famous partnership with Herman Miller produced an incredible, innovative body of work, from the iconic Eames Lounge chair and ottoman, to the Aluminum Group, to the Eames Plywood lounge and dining chairs.
Today, Herman Miller continues to attract world-famous designers like Jeff Weber, Jerome Caruso, the Studio 7.5 Design Team in Berlin, Yves Behar, Mark Goetz and many more. Herman Miller’s pioneering research into producing environmentally responsible furniture has earned them GreenGuard Indoor Air Quality certification for most of their products. Aesthetically, many of Herman Miller’s iconic designs, particularly from the 1940s and 1950s, are valuable collector’s items and on permanent display in museums such as the New York Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the Smithsonian Institution.
