Founded in 1938 by Hans and Florence Knoll, Knoll is a design firm known for creating elevated, modern interiors with the guiding principle that modern furniture should compliment architectural spaces, not fight them for the spotlight. The company produces seating, storage, tables, and more for offices, homes, and other environments, collaborating with pioneers in design and recognized architects. Many of Knoll’s works are showcased in museums, with some designs included in permanent design collections (such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York City). The company also sponsors exhibitions and scholarships in relation to modernist architecture.
