Brief Knoll Inc. Background

This helped him reach the young and influential furniture designer of the time, Florence Schust, who later became his wife and one of the most influential furniture designers of the mid-century style.

Florence and Hans founded Knoll Associates with the primary goal of providing people with optimal furniture pieces that facilitate interaction with their surroundings. They specifically wanted to revolutionize the field of office furniture, creating ergonomic and suitable pieces for their office work. This concept became known after the two furnished the Rockefeller family offices in Rockefeller Plaza. After this, their careers grew exponentially and they were able to launch optimal pieces that through the time became icons.
