2.4.10 | Zeeland, MI | Intent furniture extends from private offices to open plan workstations. Its design features and materials choices complement those of Vivo interiors, as well as other Herman Miller systems. Its concise set of parts combines in many ways for choices in matching furniture layouts to the ways people work. And, lots of choices mean you can make Intent as affordable as you need.

Industrial designer Joey Ruiter thrives on constraints. "Without constraints, you can't be creative. You have to ask how good can I make it despite the constraints." That has been Ruiter's defining challenge as founder and principal designer of JRuiter + Studio in Grand Rapids, MI. At
the same time, he strives for simplicity. "I take complex problems
and make the solution as simple as possible. I like the people to
stand out more than the furniture." That made Ruiter the perfect
choice to partner with us in developing Intent furniture.

Intent has a concise set of parts. Combine them into everything from
a single- or double-pedestal desk to returns, credenzas, and storage.
With Intent, you can scale price, application, and aesthetics based
on what you choose. Laminate surfaces and closed legs are your most
economical option.

Intent furniture meets Herman Miller's Design for the Environment
(DfE) protocol. This ensures that it is made of safe materials and
recycled content, and recycles easily at the end of its useful life.

Intent components contain 67% recycled content, both post-industrial
and post-consumer. They're under evaluation for MBDC and GREENGUARD
certification, which may contribute to LEED credits. And Intent
furniture products carry a 12-year, 3-shift warranty.
