Knoll collection - Buro International

Knoll is an iconic furniture brand with a rich history in American furniture design.

Knoll was founded in New York City in 1938 by Hans Knoll and later carried on by his wife Florence Knoll. The couple's vision was to combine modern furniture design with functionality and aesthetics. Since its foundation, Knoll has had a lasting impact on the furniture industry and is recognised worldwide for its groundbreaking designs. Over the years, Knoll has worked with well-known architects and designers such as Mies van der Rohe, Frank Gehry, Eero Saarinen and Massimo Vignelli.

Modernism and Bauhaus influences

A key feature of Knoll is the influence of modernism and the Bauhaus movement on its designs. The brand embraced the principles of simplicity, functionality and minimalism, creating furniture that is timeless yet contemporary. Knoll believes that modern furniture should complement architectural space, not compete with it.  

Collaboration with leading designers

Knoll has worked with some of the world's leading designers and architects. Florence Knoll played a crucial role in attracting talented designers to the brand. Thanks to these collaborations, Knoll has produced some of the most iconic and timeless designs, such as the Barcelona Chair, the Tulip Table and the Womb Chair.  

Ergonomics and comfort

Knoll places great emphasis on ergonomics and comfort in its furniture designs. The brand understands the importance of good posture and comfort for the people who use its furniture. Knoll furniture is designed with attention to details that contribute to an optimal seating experience and support the body. 

Innovation and sustainability

Innovation and sustainability are core values for Knoll. Knoll has been investing in energy efficiency initiatives since 2004. The brand invests in research and development to keep discovering new materials and technologies that improve the quality and durability of its furniture. Knoll pursues sustainability by using environmentally friendly materials and production methods, and by meeting strict environmental standards.
