Curbed, an online source of all things home from interior design to real estate, included Knoll in a recently published list of the best home goods and furniture stores in New York City. The article lists thirty-one stores ranging from small, vintage goods shops to larger, more iconic brands.
Dedicated to bringing his modernist vision to America, Hans Knoll founded Hans G. Knoll Furniture Company in 1938. Since its inception, Knoll has been recognized internationally for creating workplace and residential furnishings that inspire, evolve, and endure. Today, Knoll’s commitment to modern design, understanding of the nature of work, and dedication to sustainable design have yielded a unique portfolio of thoughtful products that respond and adapt to changing needs.
Since its founding, Knoll has had a significant presence in the furniture landscape of Manhattan, with the first Knoll showroom located on East 72nd Street. In 2013, Knoll returned to Midtown with its first direct-to-consumer showroom and retail store, entering the competitive market of home goods stores in the city. Fittingly, the Knoll New York Home Design Shop is located next to the Museum of Modern Art, in which several Knoll designs can be found in the museum’s permanent collection.
