Bringing together Saarinen's distinctive modernist approach to form with a utilitarian and highly functional chrome base, this iteration of the Knoll Studio Conference Side Chair is a wonderful example of the subtle luxury that marks the Finnish designer's work out. Magnificently upholstered in a wide range of colours and fabrics, the Conference Relax Chair immediately elevates its surroundings, whether that be the home or a more professional setting. Forms part of Eero Saarinen's range of Conference chairs.
Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen (1910-1961) was incredibly influential in shaping the postwar American modern design movement. Born in Finland Eero Saarinen was the son of architect Eliel Saarinen, one of the founders of the Cranbrook Academy of Art.
Saarinen is best known for designing the Tulip dining table and tulip chairs as well as the Organic chair which he designed in collaboration with Charles Eames in 1940.
