Walter Knoll 369

As part of the Classic Edition, the armchair from 1956 stands for design of timeless validity. The compact shell chair captivates with its elegant form and still blends harmoniously into the most varied living and hospitality settings today. At the time of its creation, the small shell chair set new impulses in the formal language of an entire era. Inspired by influences from Scandinavia, the Bauhaus and the avant-garde, it countered the straight lines of the day with flowing contours and sculptural verve. New materials and advances in plastics made this characteristic shape possible.
