The Warren Platner Collection

Monday, February 1st, 2010
It looks as though it will break out into song at any moment or clamp its jaws around your body as you sit in it. 

Lounge chair by Warren Platner, 1966 for Knoll

Atop of an unusually small pedestal base for such a large seating surface, the Platner lounge chair is an impact maker in any environment.    A beautiful mixture of metal rods and soft cushy textile make for a sculptural look and a cozy sit.   Designed in 1966 by Warren Platner, for Knoll, this chair has potential for retro glam and sophisticated modern.  

 When accompanied by its coordinating side table, this chair becomes parent and small tot.

The side table also features metal rods with a glass disc that perfectly fits inside the circumference of its top.  It is sweet and subtle yet the light bouncing off the torso of this table has the making for a small but sparkly dance party.  The Grandmother of this collection of course is the dining table that allows the dinner guest to gaze inside a tunnel of arched metal stems through its glass top surface while enjoying their meal.
