Global furnishings showroom MillerKnoll is opening two new flagship locations in London and New York this month, including contract showrooms and stores from across the company’s collective of brands.
“This is truly an exciting milestone for our collective. We’re thrilled to showcase the full breadth of our design portfolio in such creative and innovative locations in London and New York,” said Andi Owen, CEO of MillerKnoll. “We’re taking the approach of locating brands next to each other based on feedback from design partners, dealers and customers. We look forward to the collaboration these spaces will facilitate as we continue to redefine modern design.”
Now occupying 11 floors and more than 77,000 square feet at 251 Park Avenue South, MillerKnoll New York is the first flagship location in the United States to combine contract showrooms and retail stores from across the portfolio. The space includes Knoll, Herman Miller, Geiger/DatesWeiser, Muuto and Maharam, corporate office space and a MillerKnoll Studio that will highlight additional brands like HAY and NaughtOne.
“MillerKnoll New York offers our customers, A+D partners and dealers a convenient and unparalleled experience to engage with the best of our collective under one roof,” said Ben Watson, chief creative and product officer at MillerKnoll. “We’re immensely proud of this new design hub and can’t wait to use it as a forum to share insights, innovations and ideas that meet our customers’ most pressing needs and inspire the future through design.”
The Herman Miller and Knoll retail stores are now open. The contract showrooms will open for scheduled customer tours beginning in late-September.
Located in The Sans at 20 St John’s Square in the London design neighborhood of Clerkenwell, MillerKnoll London is the first major MillerKnoll destination outside of the United States. The location includes three floors spanning 1,700 square meters of contract showrooms and retail stores from brands including Knoll, Herman Miller and Maharam. A dedicated MillerKnoll Studio serves as a working showroom, bringing together the collective of brands, to showcase a unified approach for the modern workplace.
“We believe there is substantial opportunity to grow internationally,” said Ben Groom, President, International Contract at MillerKnoll. “The opening of MillerKnoll London is just one step we’re taking to offer an enhanced experience to our customers across the United Kingdom and Europe.”
