The methodology Herman Miller arrived at, Living Office, recognizes that all people and all companies have things in common (like those fundamental needs), and that they are also all unique. In response to this, it moves away from a one-size-fits-all standardized solution for office spaces, to a customizable landscape made up from ten different settings that are attuned to the specific purpose, character, and activities of the people working in them. In a single day, an employee might spend time in a “haven”— a private space ideal for concentrated work; a “cove”—an easily accessible area optimized for casual group collaboration; or a “plaza”— a large open setting in a well-trafficked area that offers a multitude of gathering points and attractions, like coffee or a library. It’s an office landscape designed for an era in which business success is increasingly driven by creative innovation. Today’s workplace, shaped by the culture of Silicon Valley start-ups and co-working spaces, brings talented people together and nourishes their creativity. “Work is less and less about repetitive, administrative tasks, and more about changing, creative paths,” Parsons says. “What are the right ways to manage people doing that work? What are the right tools to give them? And what are the right kind of places to support them? The answer is they’re all new and different.” Living Office balances the needs of the individual and the organization by supporting workers as individuals while letting the company customize its workplace landscape in a way that best suits its corporate culture and workday needs. By working together with architects and interior designers to apply its methodology, Herman Miller offers a way for companies to arrive at an ideal mix of settings, creating spaces suited to the character of the workers who use them and the activities they pursue. Within those settings, an ideal arrangement of surroundings, tools, and furnishings helps to deliver on the needs of people and offer an elevated experience of work. The resulting Living Office will be a place where people want to be—because it helps to facilitate better work. “We think this is a moment for design to reestablish itself as a force that enables business leaders to create places that are powerful tools to help realize their goals,” Parsons says. The end result will be energetic, higherperforming offices that stimulate innovation through a more humane way of working. Parsons believes design will lead the way in creating vibrant workplaces that do as much good for the people who work in them as they do for the bottom line.
