Good Design is Good Business

Knoll believes well-designed, adaptable products are the best response to the evolving contemporary workplace. Simplistic solutions lack the sophisticated capabilities that new conditions demand, while exotic furnishings tend toward obsolescence. At the heart of our company is an unwavering commitment to the ideal of good design: products imagined not as fashion statements or novelties but carefully considered tools. Of course, aesthetics are an important part of the Knoll tradition. But to fulfill our idea of good design, our products must function beautifully as well. The elegant simplicity of design classics, such as Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona Chair or Bertoia’s Diamond Chair, defy the vagaries of fashion. But good design means improved performance as well. The best products satisfy existing conditions and anticipate future possibilities. We stand by our faith in the principles of modern design and a dedication of the ideal of enlightened functionalism. Our vision of an expansive modern design is neither narrow nor dogmatic. We pursue form that not only follows function, but form that adapts to the demands for new functionality and enhances the experience of the user.
