He stated, "As one of the pioneering tenants of Fulton Market, we're excited to anchor another Design Days by showcasing innovative solutions for home and workplace environments."

Spanning across eight floors and nearly 70,000 square feet at two locations, 1100 and 1144 West Fulton Market, the exhibition is designed as a connected narrative, allowing visitors to experience immersive displays and product launches from MillerKnoll's diverse array of brands.

Building on their success at major exhibitions such as those in New York, London, and Milan, MillerKnoll is ready to establish a strong presence at Fulton Market. At 1100 West Fulton Market, the theme "Craft Work" will highlight the human touch that influences industrial design, featuring portraits by Balazs Gardi highlighting six MillerKnoll facilities. Simultaneously, the "Means + Methods" exhibit will delve into the tools, both historical and contemporary, that bring design concepts to life alongside live demonstrations of the new Planning AI tool. This tool aids teams in visualizing various work scenarios and styles more effectively.

In the realm of sustainability, the "Sustainability Spotlight" will showcase MillerKnoll's commitment to embedding environmental stewardship into their products' design and production processes, proving that responsibility can be a part of modern innovation. John Michael, President of North America Contract at MillerKnoll, stated, "Customers need their real estate to work harder and do more than ever before, making the positive impact of a well-designed, well-appointed space even more evident."

The MillerKnoll Workplace exhibit will present innovative strategies and environments, demonstrating the intersection of expert problem-solving and thoughtfully crafted products that fulfill organizations' space requirements for today and in the future.
