Florence Knoll played a central role in shaping modern interior design, yet her influence is often discussed indirectly or absorbed into the legacy of the company she helped build.

Trained as an architect, Florence Knoll applied planning principles to interiors at a time when interior design was still associated primarily with decoration. Through her work at Knoll Associates, she helped establish a systematic approach to space planning that treated furniture, circulation, and organizational structure as parts of a unified architectural system.

This video traces Florence Knoll’s career chronologically, from her education and early influences to her leadership at Knoll and the development of the Knoll Planning Unit. It examines how her methods reshaped corporate interiors, professionalized interior design, and helped define the visual and organizational language of the modern workplace.
