PortalMill for Herman Miller Ltd – Grand Opening

Herman Miller’s new manufacturing and distribution facility, known as PortalMill, was officially opened by Sir Nicholas Grimshaw on Tuesday 17 November 2015.

The project was concept designed by Grimshaw Architects, with input from Stephen George & Partners, at the briefing stage to provide guidance on the industry standards and parameters for the building. Stephen George & Partners were then commissioned to deliver the project with First Industrial as Development Managers and Winvic Construction as the Main Contractor.
The scheme required significant value engineering post tender to bring the project within budget but the potency of the original concept has been maintained without detriment.

Brian Walker, CEO of Herman Miller and other senior figures from Herman Miller were also invited to the opening, and feedback was extremely positive.
