Walter Knoll designs living spaces – with consummate craftsmanship, valuable materials, and an aesthetic of lasting validity. For 150 years, Walter Knoll has been renowned as a furniture brand for modern times, its history originating in 1865 with a leather shop in Stuttgart. The firm continually set standards in design history, created classics, and icons of the avant-garde. Since the end of the twentieth century, the manufacturing concern for upholstered furniture has been growing constantly and today is one of the foremost producers in the international high-end segment of interior furnishings and design. For the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK it will present in Haus Grünbeck design classics from its Classic Edition, Turkish design by Sadi and Neptun Ozis, and new handicrafts by EOOS.
