Landscape Forms, North America’s leading designer and manufacturer of high-design site furniture, structure, lighting and accessories, appoints Michael Dura, Sales Manager – Central Region, to the sales leadership team. 

Dura joins Landscape Forms following 13 years at Herman Miller and MillerKnoll, where he served in various sales leadership roles across North America and most recently managed the Great Lakes Region. He succeeds Laura Flannery Sachtleben, who was recently promoted to Chief Strategy Officer at Landscape Forms.

“What ultimately inspired me to make the career leap was the collection of great people at Landscape Forms who are committed to Design, Culture and Craft,” says Dura. “The organization’s growth is exciting, and I’m looking forward to leading the Central team and helping accelerate the already strong efforts as we look to double our business over the next six years.”

Dura holds a bachelor’s in advertising and public relations from Michigan State University and an MBA from Grand Valley State University. He currently serves on the Board of Directors for Lions & Rabbits Center for the Arts, a nonprofit focused on public art and placemaking.
