The Florence Knoll designed square coffee table was originally released in her classic 1954 coffee table collection. It captures the essence of postwar modernist architecture, with its clean lines and rational design approach she adopted from her Bauhaus mentors and colleagues, including Mies van der Rohe.
Florence Knoll's approach was to ensure every piece fit harmoniously within the larger space. This coffee table is slightly taller and has a smaller footprint than other coffee tables from the line, giving it a balance between a low-profile coffee table and an end table.
Shown in Matte Black Oak Veneer on Mirror Chromed Stainless Steel Base.
Tabletop Finishes: Real Wood Veneer Tops available in Matte & Glossy Finishes, Marble Tops in Satin & Polished. Select "None" for Glass.
The Archetype Forms 1954 Moyenne End Table: Square is a faithful reproduction of the original Florence Knoll Square End Table Model 2517T - 35.5" x 35.5".

This 1954 coffee table features a minimalist design with a square surface choice of stone, glass, or wood veneer, supported by square tubular steel legs and rails. It is based on the Florence Knoll archives and measures 35.5" x 35.5" x 17" high.
Florence Knoll's Coffee Table design was created to furnish the new interiors of postwar America. It translates architectural lines, gestures, and materials into a functional domestic form, influenced by Mies van der Rohe's principles.
This table is slightly taller, with a smaller footprint than the coffee tables from the series. It is a balance between low-profile coffee tables and occasional tables, making it practical for holding drinks, books, plants, and decorative items.
Florence Knoll's original design of this coffee table was featured at the Philadelphia Museum of Art's "Florence Knoll Bassett: Defining Modern."
