The Baughman-Lee showroom was located at 744 1/2 North La Cienega Blvd., Los Angeles.

"In a way, Thayer and Milo got their start together," according to Dot Coggin, Thayer’s wife and spokeswoman for the 59 year old, furniture business success story. "Milo came here when the company was in its organisational stage. Thayer was looking for a designer and their relationship began with a handshake agreement."

In an interview in Metropolis in 2001, Irving Harper also commented on this practice: "...there always had to be one name associated with the work. We couldn't just spread it around… that's fine. I'm grateful to George for what he did for me. While he was alive, I made no demands whatsoever, but now that he's gone, whenever the Marshmallow Sofa is referred to as a 'George Nelson design', it sort of gets to me. I don't go out of my way to set things right, but if anybody asks me who designed it, I'm perfectly happy to tell them."
