Moderated by Alice Blackwood, the discussion highlighted how Florence Knoll’s Total Design approach continues to shape design thinking across the workplace, residential and hospitality sectors. From pioneering corporate interiors in the post-war era to influencing today’s integrated environments, Knoll’s contribution remains foundational to the language of modern design.

“Knoll represents integrity, innovation and creating environments that endure,” says Aidan Mawhinney, CEO, Living Edge. “Those same values sit at the heart of Living Edge, which is why representing Knoll feels like such a natural alignment. Together we’re committed to bringing authentic, lasting design to the Australian market.”
