Platner Lounge Chair

Designed by Warren Platner


Starting from €6259


Designed by Warren Platner and introduced by Knoll in 1966, the Platner Lounge Chair is one of the most recognised icons of Modernist furniture — a sculpted base formed from hundreds of vertical cold-drawn steel rods, finished in Polished Nickel or Bronze, supporting a deep, generously proportioned seat that places you in the unhurried, reclined posture that a great lounge chair demands.

Hotel lobbies & premium hospitality

The Polished Nickel or Bronze finish gives the Platner Lounge Chair a strong sculptural presence suited to luxury hospitality interiors and executive lounges.

Corporate reception & workplace lounge

In leather upholstery, the Lounge Chair signals permanence and quality in reception areas and workplace breakout environments.

Soft seating groupings

Pair with the Platner Coffee Table and Arm Chair to create a complete lounge arrangement in either available finish.

Residential interiors

The sculptural rod-wire base and broad upholstery programme allow the Lounge Chair to sit naturally in both residential and contract environments.

The Platner Lounge Chair works in almost any setting where the brief calls for a piece that announces itself without dominating — where a seat needs to be both a significant object and genuinely comfortable. The low seat height and deep proportions place the sitter in the relaxed posture of a lounge rather than the upright readiness of a dining chair.

The rod-wire base — in either Polished Nickel or Bronze — catches and reflects light differently throughout the day, which is why architects and interior designers have continued specifying the collection for nearly sixty years. Paired with the Platner Coffee Table in the same finish, the arrangement reads as a unified sculptural composition rather than individual furniture pieces.

✦ Designed by Warren Platner for Knoll, 1966.

Warren Platner worked in the offices of Raymond Loewy, I.M. Pei, and Eero Saarinen before establishing his own practice. His ambition for the Platner Collection was to create furniture in which the ornamental structure itself became functional. The collection has remained in continuous production since 1966.

Care Instructions

Polished Nickel Base

Wipe regularly with a soft lint-free cloth. Mild soap solution is safe for marks — dry immediately after cleaning. Avoid abrasive products and acidic cleaners.

Bronze Base

Clean with a soft dry cloth. The Bronze finish develops a subtle natural patina over time. Avoid acidic and abrasive cleaners.

Fabric Upholstery

Vacuum or brush regularly to remove dust. Blot spills immediately and avoid rubbing. Use fabric cleaners appropriate to the selected textile.

Leather Upholstery

Wipe with a dry or lightly damp cloth. Condition periodically with a leather conditioner suitable for full-grain leather.

Sustainability

Enduring Design

The Platner Lounge Chair has remained in continuous production since 1966 — designed to be maintained, reupholstered, and kept in use for decades.

Hotel lobbies & premium hospitality

Финиши Polished Nickel и Bronze придают Platner Lounge Chair выразительное скульптурное присутствие для luxury hospitality и executive lounge interiors.

Corporate reception & workplace lounge

В leather upholstery Lounge Chair создаёт ощущение долговечности и высокого качества в reception и breakout-зонах.

Soft seating groupings

Сочетайте с Platner Coffee Table и Arm Chair для создания целостной lounge-композиции в любом из двух доступных финишей.

Residential interiors

Скульптурная rod-wire база и широкий выбор upholstery options позволяют Lounge Chair одинаково органично работать как в residential, так и в contract interiors.

Platner Lounge Chair работает практически в любом пространстве, где нужен объект с выраженным характером, который при этом не доминирует над интерьером. Низкая посадка и глубокая пропорция создают расслабленную lounge-позицию вместо вертикальной посадки dining chair.

Rod-wire база — в Polished Nickel или Bronze — взаимодействует со светом по-разному в течение дня, именно поэтому коллекция почти шестьдесят лет остаётся востребованной у архитекторов и interior designers. В сочетании с Platner Coffee Table композиция воспринимается как единый скульптурный объект.

✦ Designed by Warren Platner for Knoll, 1966.

Warren Platner работал в офисах Raymond Loewy, I.M. Pei и Eero Saarinen до открытия собственной практики. Его целью для Platner Collection было создание мебели, в которой декоративная структура одновременно является функциональной конструкцией. Коллекция непрерывно производится с 1966 года.

Инструкции по уходу

Polished Nickel Base

Регулярно протирайте мягкой безворсовой тканью. Для загрязнений допустим мягкий мыльный раствор — после очистки поверхность необходимо полностью высушить. Избегайте абразивных и кислотных средств.

Bronze Base

Очищайте мягкой сухой тканью. Bronze finish со временем приобретает естественную патину — это нормальная характеристика материала.

Fabric Upholstery

Регулярно удаляйте пыль пылесосом или мягкой щёткой. Пятна необходимо промакивать сразу после появления, избегая растирания ткани.

Leather Upholstery

Протирайте сухой или слегка влажной тканью. Периодически используйте leather conditioner для поддержания мягкости кожи.

Устойчивость и наследие

Enduring Design

Platner Lounge Chair непрерывно производится с 1966 года — объект, рассчитанный на десятилетия использования и reupholstery, а не на замену.

Knoll & MillerKnoll

Knoll является частью MillerKnoll collective, поддерживающего широкий спектр экологических и sustainability initiatives.

Modernism Preservation

Knoll — founding sponsor программы World Monuments Fund Modernism at Risk, направленной на сохранение модернистской архитектуры и дизайна.

—— QUESTIONS

Everything you might ask before buying.

Yes — the Platner Lounge Chair has been in continuous production since 1966 and is deployed in some of the world's most demanding contract environments, including hotel lobbies, corporate reception areas, and premium hospitality settings. It is produced by KnollStudio® to the exacting standards of the original designer. Contact our team for specification and contract support.

Both are electroplated finishes applied over the steel wire rod base. Polished Nickel is a bright, cool-toned mirror finish — highly reflective and visually light. Bronze is warmer and darker in tone, and develops a subtle patina over time as the finish ages. Both are extremely durable under contract conditions. The choice between them is largely one of interior palette — Polished Nickel suits cooler, more minimal schemes; Bronze reads as warmer and more material.

The full range of KnollTextiles fabrics and Spinneybeck leathers is available for the Platner Lounge Chair. Contact our team in Almaty to receive current swatches and discuss your upholstery selection before placing an order.

The seat height is 387 mm (15.25 in) — a low lounge position. This is significantly lower than a standard dining chair and is designed for relaxed, informal seating rather than upright task seating. Most users find it exceptionally comfortable for lounge use, though those with limited mobility may find rising from this height more effort than from a higher seat. For a higher seat option in the same collection, see the Platner Arm Chair (seat height 457 mm). 

The Lounge Chair pairs naturally with the Platner Coffee Table in the same or contrasting finish. Alongside the Platner Arm Chair, the two create a comfortable mixed-height lounge grouping. All Platner pieces share the same rod-wire base construction and the same two finish options, making the collection visually cohesive when mixed.

Yes — the Platner Lounge Chair is available in our Almaty showroom. We strongly recommend seeing the Polished Nickel and Bronze finishes and upholstery samples in person before specifying, as the quality of the rod-wire base and the depth of the electroplated finish are not fully captured in photography.
