Finally, we have a set in our collection! The coveted Warren Platner chairs were designed in 1966 for Knoll. This model is called Platner side chair, made in 1966. Monogrammed fabric replaced. Description. Characteristic of the design within this series is the repetition of vertical steel wires, which together provide a phenomenal appearance. Platner produced a furniture collection that has become an enduring icon of 1960s modernism. The production was complicated. The sculptural bases were made from hundreds of rods, and some chairs required more than 1, 000 welds. An intricate cylindrical steel base, creating a unique architectural play between the interior and exterior space, supported the upholstered seat. The collection has been in continuous production since its introduction, highlighting the growing interest of collectors in mid-century modern design. He is also famous for designing several prominent new york city interiors, including the headquarters for the ford foundation building and the original windows on the world restaurant, atop the world trade center.
