[take a memo] october 2020

Memorable furniture manufactured right out of Seattle!

Happy October - my birthday month! 

A new season and the final quarter of the year always gives me the urge to both reflect and prepare.  I love to write down all of the fun and success I've had during the year so far.  It's also time to start planning for my birthday trip - and, don't freak out - the holidays!  Although this year doesn't offer a lot of options for travel, I'll still be headed to Missoula to celebrate and enjoy those bright yellow tamaracks!

Take a stab at your own reflection and just feel good about yourself!

  • What memories did you make this summer?

  • What habits or mindsets are you ready to let go of?

  • What are you most proud of this year?

And now, here is the story of Memo!

MEMO

Memo is a new company, but its founders are a group of long-time industry leaders, designers, and entrepreneurs. Their relationships began in 2002 at Seattle-based Brandrud Furniture, where they partnered to transform a small regional furniture company into a highly successful brand known for its focus on design and innovation. In 2008, Brandrud was acquired by Herman Miller and relocated to the Midwest. In 2018, Memo was created. The vision was to harness the chemistry, experience in furniture, and passion for design, to do something memorable that could enrich peoples’ lives. The name Memo, in fact, is shorthand for the word memorable; always reminding us of our vision and inspiring us to remain true to our purpose.

The furniture pieces are subtle and sophisticated.  They offer opportunities for contrasting materials and textures.  They fit into a variety of categories - healthcare, workplace, education, and even home.  Take a look!
