Knoll Unveils 'Konzert': The Future of Private Office Design

From May 19 to 21, 2026, at Clerkenwell Design Week, Knoll introduced 'Konzert', an innovative private office system designed by renowned Italian architect Paolo Dell'Elce. This new offering reflects a deep understanding of contemporary workspace demands, merging precision with diverse design possibilities. 'Konzert' embodies Knoll's mission to revolutionize interior design and redefine the future of work by ensuring all design elements work in harmony.

A Commitment to Holistic Design

The concept of 'Konzert' anticipates the evolving needs of modern office environments, allowing designers to curate aesthetically cohesive spaces. This system consists of a comprehensive range of products, including panels, desks, seating, and storage solutions, which can be combined in numerous ways to fit any workplace style. Architects and designers are empowered with the ability to reimagine every aspect of a space thanks to what Dell'Elce describes as "tectonic planning"—a creative approach that enables cabinets and shelves to be configured variably in heights and depths, tailored to individual client specifications.

"It's the ultimate design toolkit," Dell'Elce states. "It gives planners and designers the freedom to play and realize all their visions in various configurations."

With a focus on the user experience, 'Konzert' addresses comfort and functionality, showcasing various sophisticated details, from integrated lighting solutions to customizable fabric direction, ensuring that human factors remain at the forefront of its design philosophy.

Elegance Through Quality Materials

Knoll transforms environments with a broad selection of high-quality materials like veneer, laminate, and Techgrain, offered in a variety of colors and finishes. Consistent with Knoll's legacy, this emphasis on materiality is rooted in the belief that furniture design requires thoughtful integration of color and texture to create a complete vision. This allows designers to provide each environment with its unique character while maintaining functional elegance.

A Thoughtfully Designed System

Each element of the 'Konzert' system is intentionally designed to work in relation to the others, knitting a seamless aesthetic narrative throughout the interaction of components, such as drawer handles with cabinetry or desktops with wall panels. This principle underscores Knoll's holistic design philosophy, which champions a unified visual experience throughout any workspace.
