Flickr Find: Herman Miller Brochure from 1966

041009 herman miller broc.jpgFor us here at unplggd, a vintage Herman Miller brochure pic is as good as a stretched Marimekko fabric. Easy on the eyes and wall worthy. Weird huh? There is just something so inviting about this image. The empty Eames executive chair and the organizer/ wall unit is definitely a spot I wish I was writing this post from right now. At first glance, I didn't see it, but after taking a closer look I noticed a thoughtful feature that made me appreciate this design even more.

 
 

The built in telephone! Not to mention the TV nicely tucked into one of the shelves. The beginning of the modern cube farm? I don't know, this is way too stylish.

Herman Miller did start the whole cubicle thing, it wasn't meant to be quite as soul crushing as they are now though.

The first thing I noticed was the telephone. Of course, I still *heart* a telephone with a cord.
