"In 1962, Warren Platner approached Knoll with an idea. It was a difficult design, requiring precise alignment to ensure the bent steel rods were both structurally sound and visually pleasing. Four years later, this graceful masterpiece made its debut... In the 1960s, Warren Platner saw an opportunity. “I felt there was room for the kind of decorative, gentle, graceful kind of design that appeared in period style like Louis XV, but it could have a more rational base instead of being applied decoration,” he said. By welding hundreds of curved steel rods to circular frames, Platner achieved his goal to create a form that simultaneously serves as structure and ornament. His iconic side table has been a celebrated focal point in living rooms since 1966. A graduate of Cornell University, architect Warren Platner worked with Raymond Loewy, Eero Saarinen, and I. M. Pei before opening his own practice. He designed the Georg Jensen Design Center and the Windows on the World restaurant—both in NYC—but it was his furniture collection for Knoll that earned Platner worldwide renown.
