Herman Miller has been in the vanguard of a growing movement to promote awareness and education of authentic designs.

Be sure to view the award-winning video that celebrates our design legacy (3.1MB Quicktime video).

To learn more about the roots of modern design, visit our online exhibit, Discovering Design.

To verify that you are getting a Herman Miller original be sure to:

Check the product.
You know the real thing when you see it. The time-honored design of an authentic piece is something you'd recognize anywhere. Still, you want to be absolutely certain.

Check the source.
Where do you go to find the real thing? Well, if it's a genuine Herman Miller product you want, manufactured according to designer specifications, then simply go to one of our authorized stores.

Check your conscience.
There's no question about it, you want original design, produced by the original manufacturer. Knock-offs don't pay royalties to the original designer, they aren't produced according to designer specifications. And they don't meet our standards of quality and durability. Now go, with a clear conscience, and get the real thing.

and one more thing, we manufacture everything to original design except when we substitute paint for stain. Thus you are getting an original design that has been painted. We have also made the black paint so universal, you can purchase any black paint to fix when easily scratched.

I thought you ran an upholstery shop, and recovered old chairs. Are you a H-M employee?

I think donsof is asking
because your post is cut and pasted off Herman Miller's website. You've just planted their advertising material in the forum. The "Get Real" campaign is now over 4 years old, so most of us have read this passage already. When you clip and paste ad material in the forum, people will wonder if you work for the company.

"nothing major to contribute"
My apologies. Cut and pasting a 4 year old advert was a definitely a major contribution, very enriching. Thanks.
