Knoll ® Florence Knoll Settee - 1205S2

Designed by Florence Knoll
Considered a seminal leader of 20th-century design, Florence Knoll grew up among designers. In partnership with her husband, Hans, she championed the Bauhaus approach to furniture design at Knoll: to offer objects that reflect design, technological innovation and mass production. Her intellect and keen eye brought Knoll to the forefront of modern design, thus creating the legacy that continues today.

The Design

As a pioneer of the Knoll Planning Unit, Florence Knoll created what she modestly referred to as the “fill-in pieces that no one else wants to do.” She refers to her own line of lounge seating as the equivalent of “meat and potatoes,” asserting, “I needed the piece of furniture for a job and it wasn’t there, so I designed it.”

Like so many of her ground-breaking designs that set the industry’s gold standard, the 1954 Lounge collection has made it into the pantheon of modern classics. Consistent with all of Knoll’s designs, the Lounge collection has a spare, angular profile that reflects the objective perfectionism of modern design in the early 1960s. This settee is perfect for both formal and casual settings, including reception areas, universities, museums and private homes. Upholstery is available in quality leather for a classic look, or in dozens of both bright and neutral fabric options for a more casual space.
