Herman Miller introduces a look at its New Mexico collection, which is designed with inspiration from Georgia O'Keeffe's home in collaboration with the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum. The collection aims to really celebrate the friendship and legacy of iconic designers, including Alexander Girard, and Charles and Ray Eames.
The collection is comprised of the 100 Girard Snake tables and 300 Eames Wire Chair Low Base. The New Mexico collection is set to launch in North American markets on May 20th and in Japan later in May.
