At MillerKnoll, the health of our planet drives us to find eco-friendly solutions. One great example: Herman Miller just introduced bamboo-based upholstery as a new option for the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman. Upholstering Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman in material derived from bamboo helps reduce the materials carbon footprint of the chair by up to 35%. Soft, durable, and more scratch-resistant and colorfast than any other material, it has already been used in fashion and in automotive design. Now it’s available on this Eames classic. Same design, lighter carbon footprint. Click to learn more: https://mlkn.co/6044lXqis

Spaces to gather are one of the bigger benefits for people coming into the office. Multi-use community settings like forums or cafés adapt to support people when and where they work. They’re ideal for sharing information, networking, hosting, or socializing. With Design with Impact settings, you’ll find planning ideas and products to bring these community spaces to life: https://mlkn.co/6047lnxoZ

For more than 10 years, Herman Miller and now MillerKnoll have partnered with our neighboring Outdoor Discovery Center (OCD) to support conservation and nature-based learning in West Michigan. Now with a new MillerKnoll Foundation grant, ODC will bring 5,000 native plants, a new greenhouse, and more to our community. ODC has protected thousands of acres of habitat so far and hosts several unique programs. We can’t wait to see what they do next.
