NEW DIMENSIONS FOR SYSTEMS FURNITURE

摘要

Will the Resolve system make the office cubicle obsolete? It's an intriguing question—especially for Herman Miller, the company that introduced the panel-based Action Office~® system more than 30 years ago, as well as the frame-and-tile-based Ethospace~® system in 1984. If you ask Herman Miller, the answer is no. "We're not out to replace Action Office and Ethospace," says Rick Duffy, director of Herman Miller's Knowledge Resource Group. After all, these products account for hundreds of millions of dollars in annual revenue for the office furniture giant. Panel-based systems are indeed maintaining their relevance as they evolve to meet new needs.
