“Geometry Girard Environmental Enrichment Panel by Herman Miller. For Action OfficeÑthe worldÕs first open-plan furniture systemÑAlexander Girard developed 40 decorative silkscreen designs released in 1972. His aim was to personalize and add an element of Òaesthetic functionalismÓ to Action Office installations. Unlike the designerÕs usual printed textiles, the fabric panels consisted of single stand-alone images that range from abstract patterns to figurative pictograms. Large, vibrant, and filled with personality, the Environmental Enrichment Panels epitomized GirardÕs belief that design should bring beauty, fun, and sensuality to our lives.”
