About Florence Knoll

Florence Knoll (1917–2019) was an American designer and interior architect who played a key role in shaping modern office interiors. At Knoll Associates, she led the Planning Unit, where projects were developed through drawings, models, and a precise layout of space. She approached interiors as a complete composition, working with partitions, materials, and furniture as one system.

Her showroom designs introduced a new way of presenting furniture, using freestanding elements and defined zones rather than traditional displays. She also developed a series of tables, desks, and storage pieces, often based on simple geometries and high-quality materials such as marble, steel, and wood.
