Eero Saarinens new dimensions

The creator of the ubiquitousKnoll Tulip chairs and tables,Eero Saarinen(19101961) was one of the20th centurys most prominent space shapers, merging dynamic forms with a modernist sensibility across architecture and design.

Among Saarinens greatest accomplishments areWashington D.C.s Dulles International Airport, the very sculptural and fluidTWA terminal at JFK Airportin New York, and the 630 ft. (192 m) highGateway Arch of St. Louis, Missouri, each of them defining structures of postwar America. Catenary curves were present in many of his structural designs. During his long association with Knoll, Saarinens otherfamous furniture piecesincluded the Grasshopper lounge chair and the Womb settee. Married to Aline Bernstein Saarinen, a well-known critic of art and architecture, Saarinen also collaborated with Charles Eames, with whom he designed his first prize-winning chair.
