The Saarinen (or Tulip) by Knoll is an iconic table from the famous Finnish-American architect and designer Eero Saarinen, from whom the name is also inherited. Known for its minimalist and distinctive form, it is one of the most recognizable pieces of 20th-century design, designed in 1956 as part of a search to create a timeless design that would challenge the transient trends of the era

Eero Saarinen designed the famous table in 1956 within his “Pedestal Collection” series, with the main aim of creating a piece of furniture that was extremely functional and versatile, yet elegant and without superfluous components. It is characterized by a top that seems to float in balance on a slender pedestal base shaped like a tulip, hence the name Tulip, designed to eliminate the “problem” of table legs and to offer a sense of lightness and visual continuity.

One of the distinctive features of the Saarinen is its ability to adapt to a variety of environments thanks to its timeless design and elegant versatility. This table is particularly suited for modern and minimalist spaces, but it can be used in a wide range of contexts, from residential to commercial or even institutional spaces.

Over the years, Tulip products, or Saarinen as you may call them, have evolved into a collection that also includes chairs, armchairs, and coffee tables, all united by the same idea of visual and functional freedom.

In case of shipment the table will be packed and placed on a custom-made wooden crate.
