Designed by Yves Behar
According to the American Cancer Society, the chance of a woman having breast cancer during her lifetime is about 1 in 8. In 2007, approximately 180,000 people will be diagnosed with breast cancer. However, with early detection through screening, increased awareness and improved treatments those numbers are decreasing, and with the introduction of the Limited Edition Pink Leaf Personal Light Herman Miller is becoming an active force in raising awareness for breast cancer.

Adding a new dimension to the Leaf™ Personal Light, Herman Miller has modeled a limited edition version of Yves Behar's awarding winning Leaf design fashioned in pink and each signed and numbered by Behar himself in order to increase awareness and raise funds for breast cancer research and treatment. Just as in the original Leaf Light, the Limited Edition Pink Leaf Light uses innovative LED technology to bring the human touch to lighting. Individuals can now manage lighting intensity, color, and on-off functions by simply touching the intuitive controls. Sleek, energy-efficient, and very adjustable, the Leaf is designed for the office and living areas. It is a cool and compelling way to illuminate work or set the mood, and now to promote breast cancer awareness in your community.

The Design

The Leaf offers maximum lighting options with minimal mass in an intriguing, organic form and with controls that invite human connection. The proprietary technology also addresses the most vexing problems in existing LED solutions--light intensity and heat build-up.

"The Leaf is designed to give the user a full spectrum of choices to express light's magical and sensory variations," says Behar. "It allows the human senses to become engaged by allowing the user to choose the intensity and color of light which best suits a functional need, mood, or location."

Additionally, the Leaf was developed according to Herman Miller's demanding Design for the Environment (DfE) protocol, emphasizing sustainable processes, materials, and recyclability. Therefore, Leaf's environmental impact is perhaps most profound through its use. On average, Leaf's LEDs consume approximately eight to nine watts of power, carry a lifespan up to 100,000 hours, and cut energy use by 40 percent compared to compact fluorescent bulbs.

What you make is important.
Design is an integral part of the business.
The product must be honest.
You decide what you will make.
There is a market for good design.

While fashion and style have their place, the main criterion for a Herman Miller product has remained constant: Does it truly solve a problem that people care about in a way that improves upon other solutions, or pioneers a new and better answer altogether? The answer is Yes. More on Herman Miller ®...
