MillerKnoll
Collective of design brands — including Herman Miller and Knoll — shaping the future of work and living through purposeful, enduring design.
MillerKnoll represents one of the most thoughtfully assembled collectives in the design world, bringing together Herman Miller, Knoll, and a constellation of complementary brands under a shared commitment to purposeful, enduring design. The combination of these two storied companies, each with its own deep design heritage and loyal following, has created an organization with unparalleled breadth of perspective and capability in the design of spaces for work and living. Rather than diluting the identity of its constituent brands, MillerKnoll has amplified them through shared resources and a unified design philosophy.
The collective's influence on the future of work is particularly significant at a moment when organizations worldwide are rethinking the role of the physical workplace. MillerKnoll's research into how people work, collaborate, and find meaning in their environments has positioned it as a trusted advisor to the companies and institutions navigating this transformation, offering not just furniture but a comprehensive understanding of how space shapes behavior and culture.
MillerKnoll's recognition as a 2025 Industry Icon honors the vision and discipline required to unite great design brands in service of a larger purpose. By stewarding some of the most important names in design history while investing in the next generation of products and ideas, the collective has demonstrated that legacy and innovation are not in tension but in productive dialogue. Its influence on how the world designs the spaces where people spend their working lives is profound and enduring.
