Herman Miller Herman Miller was founded 1923 and began manufacturing traditional residential furniture and became a leader in modern furniture in the 1930s and 1940s. By the early 1950s, although still a small company, Herman Miller had gained a worldwide following for its modern furniture designs. Herman Miller's belief in design as a way to solve significant problems for people, stemming from the pragmatic view of the Bauhaus, has been interpreted by all its designers working for them such as Gilbert Rohde, George Nelson, Charles and Ray Eames, Bob Prost and Don Chadwick. This belief continues with many other of today's leading designers from around the world. Some of their renown productions are the lounge chair LWC (1945), armchair DAW (1950), and the lounge chair 670 (1956) all designed by Charles and Ray Eames.
