The Knoll Studio Tulip Chair is a classic design by Eero Saarinen. The jumble of table legs and chairs found in most interiors was a thorn in Saarinen's side. With the 1957 Tulip chair, he attempted to recreate a chair as a single, flowing whole. His idea to mold the entire chair from fiberglass proved unfeasible, so it was ultimately made in two parts: a molded fiberglass seat reinforced with a layer of plastic and a cast aluminum base with a Rilsan coating. Despite this, the chair appears to be a single piece, its undulating shape reminiscent of a tulip leaf. An additional advantage of the two separate parts is their flexibility, making the chair fully rotatable. Together with the armchairs and tables, also known as the "Pedestal Collection," the chair is a paragon of 1950s modernism.
