Description
Florence Knoll created the Florence Knoll High Credenza: 2 Door for Knoll International. Always defying convention, the late Florence was an American architect and designer remembered for revolutionising homes and workspaces with her radical approach to modern design. The Florence Knoll High Credenza, named after her is a good representation of her style and design abilities. She designed the Credenza to provide a space for files and other items in office desk drawers. At the time, there was no furniture designed for this purpose after she had replaced office desks with table desks. Updated to meet today’s needs, the Credenza has a base of welded square steel tubes that are finished with polished chrome. The body and cabinet doors are natural wood veneer, ebonised or grey-painted oak. The high Credenza is divided into two compartments. The front of the doors are made of the same wood veneer and have handles with a smart chrome finish.
The Florence High Credenza is 90 cm wide, 45 cm deep, and 109.9 cm high. It can be used alone in a home or office or with a matching standard Credenza from the same brand.
ABOUT KNOLL – A Legacy of Modern Design
Knoll embodies a belief in the power of modern design—a philosophy that has guided the brand for over 80 years. Rooted in the Bauhaus design principle that modern furniture should complement architectural space rather than compete, Knoll has consistently upheld this ideal, creating environments where form and function coexist harmoniously.
Founded by Hans and Florence Knoll, the company draws inspiration from the innovative spirit of the Bauhaus School and the Cranbrook Academy of Art. Their vision of a new kind of furniture and workplace design, where craftsmanship and technology blend seamlessly, continues to shape Knoll’s values and informs every piece produced today.
For more than eight decades, Knoll has collaborated with pioneering modernists and bold contemporary designers, pushing the boundaries of design. Partnerships, from Florence Knoll’s timeless works to the innovative creations of Antenna Design, Don Chadwick, and David Adjaye, have defined the brand’s legacy and will continue to shape its future.
Knoll is more than just furniture; it is about creating connections—between people and their work, their lives, and their world. Recognised globally since 1938, Knoll’s workplace and residential furnishings are designed to inspire, adapt, and endure. The company’s commitment to modern design, deep understanding of the evolving workplace, and dedication to sustainability have culminated in a unique portfolio of products that respond to the changing needs of its customers.
This is Knoll’s story—a story of design that not only stands the test of time but also continues to lead the way forward.
