Yellowstone: Making Good on a 1953 Promise

By


Our 1953 promise to “be a good steward of the environment” put Herman Miller on a path toward helping Yellowstone Park. As the first national park, Yellowstone is often referred to as “America’s best idea.” A national treasure, it faces the complex challenge of balancing environmental preservation with public enjoyment.

Addressing this, Yellowstone Park and the Yellowstone Park Foundation recently gathered fellow leaders in environmental advocacy—including Toyota, the University of Michigan, and National Park Service—to beginning thinking how to balance its objectives.

We were honored to join the discussion and help facilitate a session that began mapping a sustainable future in which Yellowstone remains as beautiful as it is today.

It is Herman Miller’s forward thinking that sets the company above other manufactures of office furniture. Herman Miller needs to continue to place the environment, and function before form. Value and recycleability will continue to pay dividends for winning projects. As a independent office furniture dealer I am proud to represent Herman Miller.
