Warren Platner (1919–2006) was an American architect, interior and furniture designer known for transforming modernism into something warm and glamorous. His 1960s wire furniture for Knoll, combining structural steel rods with upholstered comfort, became icons of mid-century design and helped define the era’s luxurious, sculptural interiors.
Condition:
Very good vintage condition, the upholstery totally renewed some years ago.
