Model 55 Parallel Bar Armchair, Set of 2

The Model 55 Parallel Bar Armchair by Florence Knoll is a mid-century modern classic. It embodies the designer’s philosophy of functional, understated elegance. Designed in 1955, it is part of Knoll’s broader Parallel Bar Collection, which features a minimalist yet refined aesthetic.

This set of timeless armchairs is the perfect example of comfort without compromising design. Reupholstered in a soft, plush, off-white bouclé fabric, it is irresistible. In addition, the geometric shape maintains its aesthetic to fit contemporary interiors.

Florence Knoll was an American architect and designer who brought modernist design to office interiors. She and her husband built Knoll Associates into a furniture and interior design leader. She didn’t view her designs as standalone items but as pieces of a holistic interior design. Her modernist aesthetic was known for clean lines and geometric shapes. Still popular today not only in public spaces but in residential interiors as well.
