A stunning coffee table, Warren Platner’s iconic design remains as impressive today as it did some seven decades ago upon its introduction. The table is an eye-catching addition wherever is it placed, perfectly utilised for putting down a hot drink whilst deep in your latest read or placing down a small plate during a casual weekend breakfast.
The Knoll Platner collection also includes complimentary pieces for around the home.
Warren Platner studied architecture at Cornell University. Following his work with legendary designers Raymond Loewy, Eero Saarinen and I. M. Pei, he immersed himself in the creation of steel wire furniture, devising the method and tooling to produce the lounge chair in the line as well.
Notable among his residential and commercial projects are the Georg Jensen Design Centre and the Windows on the World restaurant in the World Trade Centre, both in New York City.
