Story
The soft version
Knoll's shop says the relaxed chair differs from the standard lounge chair by the polyester fiberfill and by cushions that are not welted, and that it has deeper seats and softer cushions.
In the 1954 collection
The design-plan page heads the chair "Florence Knoll 1954" and says the lounge collection now stands as a defining example of modern design.
