Charles Pollock (1930-2013) was a prominent American designer. During his studies at the Pratt Institute in New York he had the opportunity to meet the famous George Nelson, one of the noble fathers of American design, who was impressed by his qualities and was a sort of mentor for him. Pollock worked for many years in Nelson's studio, sharing with him several works for Herman Miller and specializing in the creation of furniture based on curved metal tubing, an elegant evolution of the principles of Modernism and Bauhaus. In the 1960s, after starting his own business, it was the meeting with another great protagonist of American design that gave a turning point to his career. Florence Knoll in fact decided to put some of her creations into production with her Knoll Inc. , including the Pollock Executive Chair, which soon became one of the group's flagship products, a real must for the executive offices of the 1960s , still used at institutions such as the Smithsonian Institution in Washington and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. After the move to Europe in 1965, a long period of creative silence followed, interrupted only by a few rare collaborations such as the one with the Bolognese company Castelli and the American Bernhardt Design.

Knoll International is an American company that is a world leader in the field of industrial design. Founded in 1938 by Hans and Florence Knoll, it produces furnishing items extremely appreciated for their modern, refined and refined style.
The brand continues to be faithful to the philosophy of the Bauhaus movement, which conceived modern design as an essential principle to connect people to their lives, their work, their world.
According to this idea, therefore, the furnishing accessories had to be aesthetically important but at the same time practical and functional and did not have to compete with the surrounding space, but merge with it as integral parts of a single large environment.
The company creates furnishing objects for homes and offices; It is precisely thanks to its founder that the professional figure of the interior designer and the concept of the modern office were traced. The international success of the brand is dictated by a constant dedication to design and a curious interest in technological developments, with particular attention to the needs of modern man.
Many of his cult pieces such as the Saarineen Tulip Table and the Barcelona Armchair are exhibited in the main international design museums.
