Robin, a Boston-based startup that helps businesses book office and conference spaces, announced today that it received an investment from furniture design giant Herman Miller in a previously announced round.
As part of the partnership, “Robin gets to be helpful earlier in the office design and planning process, which means a better experience and more thoughtful setup,” said Robin CEO Sam Dunn.

Last week, Robin announced that it had raised $7 million led by FirstMark Capital, with the VC firm’s partner Amish Jani joining the startup’s board as part of the deal. That $7 million figure includes Herman Miller’s contribution.
