"I wanted to reflect the modernist spirit of Knoll... the designs are minimal, providing exceptional comfort capable of elevating any interior and creating a moment for relaxation." -Piero Lissoni

the KN high-back lounge chair offers extended and neutral positions, suitable for a quiet refuge. Its smooth reclining mechanism as well as its soft, supportive seat and back adapt to different postures, providing a remarkable freedom of movement. The KN high back chair features a 360° swivel equipped with return to center and suspension systems. It also integrates a practical manual mechanism built into the armrest that enables the chair to recline and to lock the back in any position. An embroidered circle underneath the right arm hides an integrated button that enables the user to operate the smooth reclining backrest. The KN02 model also includes a seat cushion padded with down, and an attached lumbar pillow for lower back support.
