Steelcase, Herman Miller and the cubicle
1968
Zeeland, Michigan
West Michigan makes most of the world's office furniture. Herman Miller hired Charles and Ray Eames and George Nelson, then in 1968 shipped Robert Propst's Action Office, an open plan of movable panels meant to liberate workers, which the industry promptly cheapened into the cubicle. Propst called the result monolithic insanity.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
