Herman Miller Annual Reports

Herman Miller Annual Reports

Setting new precedents in corporate communications.

Before digital financial reporting, these printed books were a collaboration with the CEO, designers, and writers to express the current state and spirit of the organization. For ten years, Peopledesign creative director Yang Kim collaborated with world-famous Herman Miller designer Steve Frykholm on these printed books. They garnered awards and acclaim from nearly every design competition and served as a touchstone for many designers to this day.

Of the 30-plus annual reports I designed for the company, I feel that for the ten years when Yang and I were collaborating on them, I really hit my stride. She would always bring a certain spirit and challenge our assumptions.
