Knoll

Founded by Hans Knoll in 1938, the prestigious manufacturer was run by Knoll alongside his wife Florence after their marriage in 1946. After her husband’s death in 1955, Florence Knoll continued to lead Knoll Furniture Company to great successes. A former student of the Bauhaus, Florence Knoll orchestrated collaborations and partnerships with iconic designers and artists such as Anni Albers, Harry Bertoia and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, helping to shape the landscape of 20th century design.

Today, Knoll continues to be one of the design industry’s most revered companies. Constantly striving to explore the latest technology and innovation, Knoll remains firmly on the forefront of contemporary design. Boasting a portfolio that includes Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona Chair, the Warren Platner Lounge Chair and Eero Saarinen’s Tulip Tables, Knoll’s creations can be found in the permanent collections at New York’s MoMA, the Art Institute of Chicago and London’s V&A Museum.
