2012 Florence Knoll 3 Seat Leather Sofa w/ Custom Leather

About the Item

This is a classic Three Seat Sofa designed by Florence Knoll and produced by Knoll in 2012. The sofa was custom ordered for the executive suite of a corporate office in New York City. The client specified a two-tone leather with cognac color piping and ivory or off-white leather. Condition overall is terrific with only light signs of wear from use. See photos. The satin chrome frame is in nice shape and leather is supple. As can be seen in the photos, there is some light bleeding from the cognac color to the ivory. We have a leather specialist we work with who can professionally address this if desired. It looks terrific as/is, though if you wanted the piping to look perfectly crisp again, feel free to inquire about this. The sofa measures 90.5 inches wide by 32.25 inches deep and 31.25 inches tall. The seat height is 17.5 inches and arm height is 23.5 inches. One sofa is included in this listing. We also have two matching armchairs with custom piping from the same original owner.

  • Pristine Florence Knoll Sofa for Knoll International
    By Florence Knoll, Knoll
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    Pristine Florence Knoll sofa for Knoll International. Upholstered in gorgeous Sina Pearson fabric. Florence Knoll was a pioneering designer and entrepreneur who created the modern look and feel of America’s postwar corporate office with sleek furniture, artistic textiles and an uncluttered, free-flowing workplace environment. To connoisseurs of Modernism, the mid-20th century designs of Florence Knoll, were — and still are — the essence of the genre’s clean, functional forms. Transcending design fads, they are still influential, still contemporary, still common in offices, homes and public spaces, still found in dealers’ showrooms and represented in museum collections. Ms. Knoll learned her art at the side of Modernist masters. She was a protégé of the German-American architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Eliel Saarinen, the Finnish architect and teacher and the father of the architect Eero Saarinen. And she worked with the renowned Bauhaus architects Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer. Throughout her career, influenced by the German Bauhaus school of design, she promoted the Modernist merger of architecture, art and utility in her furnishings and interiors, especially — although not exclusively — for offices. In the 1940s, she married and became a business partner of the German-born furniture maker Hans Knoll, and over 20 years she was instrumental in building Knoll Associates into the largest and most prestigious high-end design firm of its kind, with 35 showrooms in the United States and around the world. While her husband handled business affairs, Ms. Knoll was the design force of Knoll Associates. It grew to become the leading innovator of modern interiors and furnishings in the 1950s and ’60s, transforming the CBS, Seagram and Look magazine headquarters in Manhattan, the H. J. Heinz headquarters in Pittsburgh and properties across the United States, Europe, Asia and South America, including American embassies. Her “total design” favored open work spaces over private offices, and furniture grouped for informal discussions. It integrated lighting, vibrant colors, acoustical fabrics, chairs molded like tulip petals, sofas and desks with chrome legs...
