Tom Newhouse continues to focus much of his energy on two "passions": the study of emerging office issues and the implementation of "green" design concepts. He's also committed to designing products and utilizing manufacturing technologies that place highest priority on preserving the environment. "I have been passionate on this issue for the past 25 years," he says, "and I will continue to be. That's one reason why I love to work with Herman Miller."
Herman Miller was a West Michigan businessman who helped his son-in-law, D.J. De Pree, buy the Michigan Star Furniture Company in 1923. De Pree had been working at the company, which opened in 1905, since he was hired in 1909 as a clerk. De Pree knew his father-in-law was a man of integrity, so he decided to rename the company after him. By the middle of the 20th century, the name Herman Miller had become synonymous with “modern” furniture. Working with legendary designers George Nelson and Charles and Ray Eames, the company produced pieces that would become classics of industrial design.
