KNOLL
Employing a thorough creative process in which objects are pared down to reveal a clear and concise design concept, the Shelton Mindel Collection includes an innovative wood side chair, two lounge seating collections and a table series.
Leading the Collection is the Shelton Mindel Side Chair, which reinterprets the traditional “banker’s chair” to create a streamlined, unassuming contemporary chair for private offices, open plan workspaces and dining applications.
The SM1 and SM2 Lounge Collections, characterized by quiet geometries, a novel, elegant simplicity and exceptional comfort, are equally ideal for reception areas and living rooms. The SM Table is a dynamic form: a continuous, non-concentric extrusion with no apparent beginning or end, which is enhanced visually by a floating glass top.
“Our approach to furniture design comes from the pursuit of architecture—asking questions, solving problems, searching for the essential,” said Lee Mindel. The Shelton Mindel Collection reflects the KnollStudio® commitment to timeless, enduring design, continuing the Knoll legacy of producing furniture to the exacting standards of the designer and affirming our unwavering belief in the power and utility of modern design.
Shelton Mindel Side Chair
Peter Shelton and Lee Mindel removed mass, tweaked proportions and simplified lines to reinterpret the traditional banker’s chair, creating a contemporary chair that echoes the stance and stature of another era.The chair is exceptionally comfortable with a full, curved back available with or without an upholstered inner shell.
SM Collection
Inspired by M.C. Escher, the SM Table features a continuously looping base with no apparent beginning or end. The dynamic frame supports a floating top, evoking notes of Mies and Florence.
Sm1 COLLECTION
The quiet lines and chic simplicity of the Shelton Mindel SM1 Lounge Collection create a unified landscape of order, enclosure and intimacy. The integrated cushions add to the cohesive appearance and make for easy maintenance, ideal for heavy use applications.
SM2 COLLECTION
The Shelton Mindel SM2 Lounge Collection creates an optimally-scaled furniture landscape based on the cube. The contrast between the geometric, tailored outer shell and the relaxed interior cushions distinguishes the design and helps bridge the gap between hard and soft aesthetics.
