Furnishings retailer Herman Miller has expanded its presence with the opening of a new store in New York City, US.

The 6,000ft² store occupies the ground and second floors of Herman Miller's multi-storey building at 251 Park Avenue South in Manhattan.

Herman Miller chief executive officer Brian Walker said: "We've made great progress with a consumer strategy that allows us to engage with the communities we serve across multiple channels and touch points.

"Having our own physical retail presence in a major US market will further cement Herman Miller's position as a premium lifestyle brand."

"In addition to growing the Design Within Reach studio footprint and our global e-commerce platform, having our own physical retail presence in a major US market will further cement Herman Miller's position as a premium lifestyle brand with unrivaled multichannel capabilities.

"Our goal is to create fans, not customers, and this store will connect us with new fans in a tangible way."

The new store features a modern home design plan on its ground floor, with rooms that display designs for living, working, dining, socialising, and sleeping purposes.
