Company background
Knoll was founded in New York City in 1938 by Hans Knoll, joined soon after by his wife, architect and designer Florence Knoll, who became company president after Hans Knoll's death in 1955. Operations moved to East Greenville, Pennsylvania, in 1950, which remains a Knoll manufacturing site today. The brand is closely associated with modernist furniture, including Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona chair, for which Knoll holds exclusive manufacturing rights, and Eero Saarinen's Womb and Tulip chairs; more than 40 Knoll designs are held in the Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection. Herman Miller acquired Knoll in 2021 for $1.8 billion, and the combined company was renamed MillerKnoll, which trades on Nasdaq as MLKN and reported about $3.63 billion in revenue and 10,200 employees in 2024.
