In 1966, Warren Platner designed a collection of furniture, characterised by its sculptural profile, that became iconic. By transforming simple steel rods, the architect and designer created an elegant collection of chairs and tables with a base formed from bundles of steel wire. Produced by Knoll, the Platner footrest perfectly complements the easy chair of the same collection, providing optimal comfort. Platner Ottoman is available in many fabrics and colours.
Founded in 1938 in the United States, Knoll is a manufacturer of designer furniture and office furniture equipment whose focus is placed firmly on excellence. Knoll has always sought to modernise design ever since it was founded. For furniture manufacturer Knoll, beautiful design is synonymous with a profitable business model. Today, the company is convinced that its principle works, as Knoll International has been a leading design company for over 70 years. Hans and Florence Knoll have developed one of the most creative and prolific companies of the post-war period. The couple imposed their design vision thanks to the Planning Unit, combining interior architecture, design, production, textiles and graphic design.
