MillerKnoll Brings Design Works to Life for Fulton Market Design Days
With over 70,000 square feet of showroom and retail space, MillerKnoll’s Collective of Design Brands are set to launch new products, share insights and exhibits, inspiring Design Professionals and Enthusiasts
ZEELAND, Mich., June 1, 2023 – MillerKnoll (NASDAQ:MLKN), a global leader in design, is bringing its collective of brands to life through Design Works, a multiple day event including product launches, exhibits, and engaging programming. This year’s event will take place from June 12-14, 2023, during Fulton Market Design Days in Chicago, Illinois.
As one of the early anchor tenants, MillerKnoll has helped shape Fulton Market into a premier design destination, taking the lead in creating the ‘Neighborhood of Brands,’ a group of more than twenty-five design-led companies with showrooms and trade spaces in the Fulton Market area of Chicago.
Today, MillerKnoll’s collective of brands comes together with over 70,000 combined square feet of showroom and retail space across locations at 811 and 1100 West Fulton Market. Throughout these two locations, MillerKnoll will host engaging events and exhibits, share insights, collaborating with the design community and clients to solve relevant questions around the future of work and home. Highlights include:
Herman Miller will continue its celebration of the 100th anniversary of its brand name with a visual journey that kicked off last month in Milan during Salone. Throughout its history, Herman Miller has worked with many graphic designers and artists who came to define the look and feel of their respective eras. The graphic design exhibit celebrates their work, and the boldness, rigor, and joy innate to the brand. New products will also be highlighted, including the Naoto Fukasawa designed Asari Chair by Herman Miller, Sayl with ocean-bound plastic, the Passport Work Table, and the reveal of an upcoming nesting chair.
Knoll will debut a re-mastering of the brand under new creative leadership, and its Fulton Market showroom will feature a complete re-design. The brand will re-introduce archival design Models 31 and 33 by Florence Knoll, as well as a new Saarinen Lounge Height Table. Knoll will also debut the Antenna Bench, the Cove Collection by Knoll, and continue its celebration of the 75th Anniversary of the Womb Chair.
Muuto will feature new designs such as the Wrap Lounge Chair and Couple Coffee Table, Fiber Conference Chair with new bases, and the Fiber Armchair and Side Chair, now made with 80 percent recycled plastic. The brand’s Linear System Series brings a fresh perspective to the evolving needs of the modern workplace, now available in a new finish with additional accessory and lighting options. Muuto’s Outline Highback will be exhibited in a newly launched cabin version and additional height, while the Workshop Table will be on display in an all-new finish.
Design Within Reach will showcase a variety of newly introduced and exclusive pieces in their ground-level retail space including the Pastille Sofa by Hlynur Atlason, the Soffi Swivel Chair by Gabriel Tan, and Sarah Ellison’s Chromeo Lounge and Ottoman, Muse Sofa and Arch Chair. Other highlights will include HAY’s Balcony Collection and a preview of the brand’s Chisel Chair (launching this fall), along with the Pumpkin Chair from Ligne Roset, and DWR’s new exclusive headboard program featuring cane and wood designs.
