OUR STORY

Building on our purpose, positioning, and values, our story encapsulates who we are, what we do, and why we do it. There are three versions of our brand story— long, medium, and short. Your needs might be driven by your audience or the space available. Use whichever version best suits your needs.

MillerKnoll is a collective of dynamic brands that comes together to design the world we live in. Combined, we represent over 100 years of design research and exploration in service of humanity. We form an unparalleled platform from which to build a more sustainable, caring, equitable, and beautiful world. As a global leader, we apply our scale, resources, and expertise to make this future possible for all people and our planet. From our origins at the forefront of modern design in America, we’ve never been afraid to do things differently. This progressive spirit continues in our shared ambition to redefine what modern can be for the 21st century. We’re taking on the biggest challenges facing our customers, and our global community. We’re asking difficult questions, and proposing original solutions. We’re pushing design forward to build a brighter future—and making sure everybody’s included.

We do this because we’re driven to design for the good of humankind. Our brands are united by a belief in design as a tool for creating positive impact. Our care shows up in everything we do— from the spaces we make that help us live and work at our best, to how we manufacture our products, to the ways we think and the actions we take. For MillerKnoll, ‘design’ is not only furniture and placemaking—it’s our craft, curiosity, skill, intention, and ideas in action. It’s how we’re shaping the world for the better, for everyone. Together, we live the future we design.

MillerKnoll is a collective of dynamic brands that comes together to design the world we live in. From the spaces we make that help us live and work better, to how we manufacture our products, to the ways we solve challenges facing our customers and global community, design is our tool for creating positive impact. Our optimism leads us as we redefine modern for the 21st century, shaping a future that’s more sustainable, caring, and beautiful for all people and our planet.

The following ideas are central to the MillerKnoll brand. They represent our unique way of working together, and our distinct point of view on design. The ideas are meant to inform and inspire brand communications (both visual and verbal) and can be used word-for-word, or expanded to tell a longer story.​

The global leader of design.
Our brands have led the conversation on design for over 100 years, and we continue to drive our industry forward with our visionary thinking and purposeful approach.

Designing the world we live in. We come together to create positive impact at all scales, from perfecting the smallest detail to enacting global change.

We live the future we design. Our brands anticipate and shape what’s to come. Through the ways we think, act, and work, and the spaces we make, we design a brighter future for all people and our planet.

Design is a verb. It’s thinking and acting with intention. Design is our craft, curiosity, optimism, skill, and ideas in action. It’s the way we’re shaping the world for the better, for everyone.

Redefining modern for the 21st century. Our roots are in the modern idea of forward progress through design. We’re reimagining how design can advance the more beautiful, equitable, sustainable, and human world we need now.
