Knoll presents new collections and iconic furnishings at Milan's Salone del Mobile

30/03/2017

For the 56th edition of the Salone Internazionale del Mobile in Milan, Knoll will be showcasing both new collections and iconic pieces, once again reaffirming the kind of corporate vision that has turned the company into a world-renowned brand.

First of all, the collaboration between Knoll and Piero Lissoni continues with his design of Grasshopper, a collection of tables that expresses a perfect balance between modernity and tradition.

Each of these tables draws inspiration, in terms of its shape, from the insect that goes by the same name.

The grasshopper is referenced here for its lightness and, at the same time, its compactness. The vaguely rectangular shape of the tables comes across as innovative thanks to their rounded corners. Atop the table frame, however, sits such a thin surface that still offers the best in terms of performance and works perfectly with all the chairs of the Knoll range.

The range of new products from Piero Lissoni continues with Matrioska, a storage system of open and closed containers of varying geometries, where light and shadow confer lightness and simplicity to the volumes.

In addition to these introductions, Knoll presents enhancements to the Avio Sofa System, an innovative, modular design of upholstered furniture with a relaxed and informal style, incorporating a metal structure and soft cushions, with clean lines that conceal its complex workings. This year, Avio evolves by incorporating asymmetry in the original design and is also available in a compact version.

All in all, so many new things going on that it's definitely worth popping over to check out Knoll's unique stand.
