Florence Knoll's profound impact on Mid-Century design is evident in every piece of furniture that bears her name, including this famed Florence Knoll Coffee Table. As a trailblazer in commercial interior design, Knoll founded the "Planning Unit" that serviced illustrious clients such as IBM and CBS, all while revolutionizing the modern American workspace.
During her tenure, Knoll often encountered spaces that lacked suitable furnishings, prompting her to design them herself. This initiative led to the creation of the iconic furniture collection we are familiar with today, renowned for its timeless aesthetic and functional elegance. Among these creations are her Sofas, Lounge Chairs, and Tables, which continue to adorn both homes and offices, always epitomizing the essence of modernism.
This particular Florence Knoll Coffee Table not only serves as a functional item but also as a piece of history. It was part of one of the Planning Unit’s major projects—the CBS offices in Manhattan's Eero Saarinen designed Black Rock building. This table features rarely seen Italian Verdi Alpi green marble—a robust, handsome color that has gracefully withstood the test of time. Supported by a polished chrome steel frame, characteristic of Knoll’s aesthetic, this piece merges durability with style.
As time passed, CBS would eventually redesign their interiors, moving away from the Planning Unit’s work. This table was preserved in storage, maintaining its original condition with only minor wear, a testament to its enduring quality. Notably, the table bears a "CBS" tag underneath its marble top, marking its significant provenance. This Florence Knoll Coffee Table is not just a piece of furniture, but a slice of design history, offering both utility and a story of Florence Knoll’s innovative design leadership.
