Herman Miller has announced the first Living Office Awards, which have been designed to raise awareness of the importance of good workspace design as a tool for companies to achieve their organisational goals. “We believe the workplace should increase engagement and productivity, creating a total experience of work that’s more natural, more desirable and more rewarding,” says Rob Keddie, Regional Director – Herman Miller Middle East and Africa.

The panel of judges includes: Christian Vasquez, Director of the American Institute of Architects, Middle East; Esra Lemmens, Ambassador APID; Hani Asfour, Associate Dean at the Dubai Institute of Design and Innovation; Janet McAvinnie, CBIFM – The British Institute of Facilities Management; Kate Rube, Vice President, Market Solutions, The International Well Building Institute; Lucy Bolton, Assistant Professor in Business Psychology, Heriot-Watt University, Dubai Campus; and Chris Morley, Head of Design, Herman Miller Middle East and Africa.
