Winners of the Global Sustainable Leadership Awards for Design and Development
Herman Miller, Inc., Texas Instruments and HOK were announced as winners of the Sustainable Leadership Awards, an international awards program presented by a consortium of The American Institute of Architects' (AIA) - Committees on the Environment and Interior Architecture, CoreNet Global and The International Interior Design Association (IIDA).

The awards recognize companies who lead by example and who make sustainable design and development a cornerstone of their business practices.

Awards were given in three categories: (1) architecture and interior, (2) for profit companies under five billion dollars in sales, and (3) for-profit multinational companies over five billion in sales.

Herman Miller received a Sustainable Leadership Award, which is given to a company with under $5 billion in annual sales.

Herman Miller traces its environmental roots back to the 1950s when company founder D.J. DePree declared that Herman Miller "will be a good corporate neighbor by being a good steward of the environment."

Consistently ranked as one of the most environmentally responsible companies in the United States, Herman Miller has worked in close partnership with its suppliers to continually pioneer new standards of eco-manufacturing.

Texas Instruments was the winner in the multinational category.
