Herman Miller Opens NYC Flagship Store

Exciting news for Gothamite design lovers: This month Herman Miller opened their new NYC flagship store at 251 Park Avenue South, right next door to the Flatiron Building. The location was likely chosen for more than its excellent light; the address used to house the offices of George Nelson & Company, Designers and Planners, in the 1970s.

The Herman Miller Store spans the first and second floors; the Showroom spans the second and third; Herman Miller and Design Within Reach’s offices are on the fourth, and subsidiary Geiger’s showroom are up on the fifth.

The store’s floorplate follows that of a modern home, with rooms that demonstrate problem-solving designs for living, working, dining, and more. The display and inventory blend new and vintage Herman Miller furniture, lighting, and accessories with a curated set of products from like-minded vendors and skilled artisans from around the world.

The Showroom is business hours only: Monday through Friday, 9am - 5pm. The Store, however, is open seven days a week (Monday through Saturday 11am - 7pm, Sundays from noon to 6pm).
