Exciting news. Herman Miller announced today that we will be the exclusive distributors for Magis in the US and Canada. So, what does that mean for you? Well, here’s Jack Schreur, the Vice President of Herman Miller Classics and Retail on that very subject:  “The move is an exciting step toward offering more choices. Choice is key because technology is changing how people are working and living, and blurring the line between the two. Magis products provide more ways to support how people live and work today, and they do it with beauty, style, and quality.” Sounds pretty good doesn’t it? We’re thrilled to be able to mix classics from the Magis collection with our own pieces.

Magis works a lot like Herman Miller in that they partner with outside designers. Who have they worked with? The list is a who’s who of the design world – look out for pieces by Richard Sapper, Jasper Morrison, Stefano Giovannoni, Marc Newson, Konstantin Grcic (his Chair_One is pictured above) , Ron Arad, the Bouroullecs, Robin Day, Pierre Paulin, Jerszy Seymour, Naoto Fukasawa, and Thomas Heatherwick. Come check out the Herman Miller booth at Neocon (June 13-15) to see just how our pieces will work with Magis’ designs.
