The Three Seater Sofa is available in a selection of contemporary colours, all upholstered in the luxurious Knoll Cato fabric, while a stylish exposed metal frame with chrome legs forms the base of the highly sculptural object.
The KnollStudio logo and Florence Knoll’s signature are stamped into the base of each frame, guaranteeing authenticity, while the expertly stitched cushions exude a simple yet memorable aesthetic. Forming part of the much loved Florence Knoll collection, the three-seater sofa will make for the ideal base from which to produce an inspiration and modern setting in any home space.
While a student at the Kingswood School on the campus of the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, Florence Knoll Bassett (nee Schust) became a protege of Eero Saarinen. She studied architecture at Cranbrook, the Architectural Association in London and the Armour Institute (Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago). She worked briefly for Walter Gropius, Marcel Breuer and Wallace K. Harrison.
In 1946, she became a full business and design partner and married Hans Knoll, after which they formed Knoll Associates. She was at once a champion of world-class architects and designers and an exceptional architect in her own right.
