The pieces of the Platner collection, distributed by Knoll, are composed of hundreds of individual welds, all hand-welded following traditional processes to achieve the delicacy and purity of the piece. Platner is considered one of the designers who stood out the most in the 60's with his furniture pieces and interiors that renewed the vision of American aesthetics. In his pieces, Platner used the steel wire rod to create the collection of sculptural furniture featured here that would become a design icon. Behind each of his works, there was always a clear architectural concept, as demonstrated in the interior of the Windows on the Word or the North Tower restaurant in New York. Warren Platner studied at Cornell University, graduating in 1941 with a degree in architecture. He worked with legendary architects Raymond Loewy, Eero Saarinen and I. M. Pei before opening his own studio. Notable contributions throughout his career in architecture include the Georg Jensen Design Center and the Windows on the World restaurant at the World Trade Center, both in New York. It was the collection of furniture designed for the Knoll brand that brought Platner worldwide recognition. The collection in question, named after its designer, is an icon of modern furniture. Platner personally formulated production techniques for each chair, which feature more than a hundred steel rods.

In his pieces, Platner used the steel wire rod to create the collection of sculptural furniture featured here that would become a design icon. Behind each of his works, there was always a clear architectural concept, as demonstrated in the interior of the Windows on the Word or the North Tower restaurant in New York. Warren Platner studied at Cornell University, graduating in 1941 with a degree in architecture. He worked with legendary architects Raymond Loewy, Eero Saarinen and I. M. Pei before opening his own studio. Notable contributions throughout his career in architecture include the Georg Jensen Design Center and the Windows on the World restaurant at the World Trade Center, both in New York. It was the collection of furniture designed for the Knoll brand that brought Platner worldwide recognition. The collection in question, named after its designer, is an icon of modern furniture. Platner personally formulated production techniques for each chair, which feature more than a hundred steel rods.
