Model 51 Parallel Bar Slipper Chair by Florence Knoll for Knoll

Florence Knoll for Knoll International
Design: 1960

Orange is the new black! This classic original design for Knoll Inc. got quite a transformation. This piece is fully reupholstered from the tensioning straps to the foam interior. The high-end, padded fabric on both cushions emphasizes the square-shaped model.

Florence Knoll was an American architect and designer credited with bringing modernist design to office interiors. She and her husband built Knoll Associates into a leader in furniture and interior design. She didn’t view her designs as standalone items but as pieces of a holistic interior design. Her modernist aesthetic was known for clean lines and geometric shapes. Still popular today not only in public spaces but in residential interiors as well.
