Design Furniture Brand

Knoll

Knoll, founded in 1938 by Hans Knoll, is synonymous with modern design and exceptional quality. Inspired by Bauhaus and modernist principles, Hans Knoll created a company dedicated to the production of functional and aesthetic furniture. With the arrival of Florence Knoll, Hans' wife and an influential designer, the company expanded significantly. Florence introduced innovative concepts in office design, promoting open, collaborative working environments.

Knoll stands for quality, innovation and timeless design. The brand strives to create products that are not only beautiful, but also functional and sustainable, integrating art and design into every room while respecting the environment. Knoll's artistic direction is characterized by a blend of boldness and sobriety, with particular attention to detail and materials.

Among Knoll's most iconic creations are Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona chair, Eero Saarinen's Tulip chair and Harry Bertoia's Diamond chair. These pieces have become icons of modern design and feature in the collections of many museums around the world, including MoMA in New York. Knoll continues to collaborate with renowned designers and promote emerging talents such as Frank Gehry, David Adjaye and Piero Lissoni.

Knoll has received numerous awards for its contribution to design, and its creations have been exhibited in prestigious museums. The brand is also renowned for its innovative use of materials, notably metal, glass and leather. Knoll is committed to sustainable manufacturing practices, to minimize its impact on the environment.

Despite merging with Herman Miller to form the MillerKnoll Group, which includes many brands such as Muuto, Knoll has retained its identity and integrity over the years, continuing to thrive as a leader in modern design. Knoll furniture combines robustness and elegance, while remaining true to its roots and values.
