Private Offices

Knoll creates inviting private offices with finely crafted desks, storage and companion tables in a wide selection of finishes.

Blending table desks and freestanding and wall mounted storage cabinets provides the flexibility to create private offices that meet the aesthetic and functional objectives of any organization.

Knoll products create offices that are individually tailored, yet remain part of a greater organizational whole. Integrated technology tools support day-to-day performance.

 

 

Seating

Knoll work and task chairs are beautifully designed, exceedingly comfortable and ergonomically advanced. The Knoll seating portfolio offers solutions for all areas of the office, from private office to café.

A person may sit in up to six chairs throughout their workday. From focused, 'heads down' individual work to casual, shared work between colleagues to more formal team work, Knoll's seating portfolio offers solutions that consider design, ergonomics, and materials for each of these occasions.

Knoll's research and approach to seating invokes holistic ergonomics, which integrates the physical considerations of engineering ergonomics and the mental considerations of cognitive ergonomics. The blend of the two addresses seating's functional requirements as well as its intangible ability to affect personal performance, company culture, and social interaction.
