About the Designer:
Florence Knoll (1917–2019) was a pioneering architect, designer, and businesswoman whose innovative approach transformed the landscape of modern interior design and furniture production. As a protégé of iconic figures such as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Eliel Saarinen, she brought architectural principles into furniture design, emphasizing clean lines, functional elegance, and harmonious layouts.
Her work as the creative force behind Knoll Associates helped establish the company as a global leader in modernist furnishings. Beyond her groundbreaking furniture designs, Florence Knoll was renowned for her "total design" philosophy, which approached interiors as holistic environments where architecture, furniture, textiles, and lighting worked together seamlessly. Her legacy continues to inspire contemporary design and remains a cornerstone of mid-century modern aesthetics.
