PRODUCT FOCUS
All the Office Is a Stage
Drawing from its hospitality and theatrical set design
background, Rockwell Group conceives a comprehensive
collection of workplace furnishings for Knoll
1
Rockwell Group established its reputation as a leading practice in the
design of hotels, restaurants, and theatrical sets. While not as well known
for workplace interiors, David Rockwell's firm has brought its hospitality
expertise into the office with the Unscripted collection. An ambitious
debut for Knoll, Unscripted offers 30 products across six categories.
With elements that are freestanding and movable, Unscripted
is designed to allow improvisation and cultivate community within
the workplace. "Our interest is in getting people to look at their work
environments as a stage on which movable furniture can be arranged
in endless configurations," says Rockwell. "You can craft the scene
around what it is you're doing that day."
The Unscripted collection spans seating, tables, storage, border
and step elements, and accessories. Seating options include individual
and modular upholstered lounge pieces, swivel seats, unstructured
poufs, stools, and benches. Tables range from long library formats
to sawhorse versions, as well as drink rails, tall tables, easy tables,
desks, and wire-base occasional tables with wood tops incorporating
curved touchpoints. Included within the collection's storage solutions
are modular elements, credenzas, consoles, lockers, hospitality carts,
and mobile carts. Unscripted also features accessories, such as a lap
tray, canvas bins, down pillows, and seat cushions.

To create varying degrees of visual and acoustic privacy,
Unscripted offers border elements, called the Creative Wall and Puffy
and Telly screens. Providing transitions between different types of
spaces, step elements are cubic forms with plywood, metal, or upholstered
finishes that can take the form of bleachers, amphitheaters, or even
what Rockwell refers to as pocket parks.
"The collection is very much open to what people will do with it,"
says Benjamin Pardo, Knoll's director of design who worked closely
with Rockwell. "It's truly an invitation for workplace designers and their
clients to personalize their own space." -MURRYE BERNARD
