New Sofa from Herman Miller presented during NY Design Week 2013

Herman Miller, Inc., continues to embrace the blending of life and work with the introduction of the Wireframe Sofa Group, a newly-commissioned design by Sam Hecht and Kim Colin of London-based Industrial Facility. This addition to the Herman Miller Collection is being presented during New York Design Week 2013.

Minimalist and modern with a visible lightness, the Wireframe Sofa Group features an external structure that uniquely holds its cushioning in place. Made from steel wire, the durable frame ensures that Hecht and Colin’s design is lightweight. Moreover, because this frame is separate from the upholstery, the cushions are easy to remove, clean, and maintain. The first sofa to employ suspension technology developed by Herman Miller for the healthcare industry, Wireframe evenly distributes sitting pressure, making it a comfortable and versatile choice for home, working, and hospitality environments.

“We wanted something that was visually light, that spoke of the contemporary conditions of moving a sofa from one position to another, and having to pass it through a small door frame,” said Sam Hecht. “These conditions may seem strange as inspirational starting points, but from them grew the idea of a wired frame that contains its cushions in a manner that feels comfortable to the eye as well as the body.”

About The Herman Miller Collection

In 1948, George Nelson created the first Herman Miller Collection, with the goal of “a permanent collection designed to meet fully the requirements for modern living.”  He understood that the Collection would evolve as human behavior changed and new materials and manufacturing technologies emerged. Today’s modern living embraces the blending of life and work, with greater appreciation for contemporary design and mobile and ubiquitous technologies offering new freedom of choice in where and how people express their lifestyles and pursue their professions. The Herman Miller Collection welcomes and enriches this new era, as we endeavor to realize Nelson’s vision for the modern home, office, and public spaces.
