Knoll lands in lobbies, executive floors, and client-facing space, so it moves with the firms that care how the front of house reads.
Moffett Park and the Mathilda corridor. Hardware companies, labs, and the occasional office that needs to survive a forklift. Commercial-grade matters more here than it looks like it should.
A design house since 1938. Mid-century modern that became the canon: Barcelona, Saarinen, Bertoia, Womb. Pieces that still set the standard.
The brand page and the city page both tell you half of this. These are the parts that only apply where the two meet.
Knoll lands in lobbies, executive floors, and client-facing space, so it moves with the firms that care how the front of house reads. In Sunnyvale that plays out through Moffett Park, the Mathilda corridor and Peery Park. Hardware, robotics, aerospace suppliers, and labs. Office furniture here shares a floor with test benches and pallet jacks, and it gets treated accordingly. Heavy-duty is the whole spec. Steel-frame task seating, laminate over veneer, ESD-safe surfaces where the bench work spills into the office. Delicate lounge does not survive its first quarter in this submarket.
Flex and R&D buildings with grade-level roll-ups and real dock height. Access is the easy part. The hard part is that the office sits inside a working building, so installs schedule around production, not the other way round. That matters more for lounge, tables and seating than people expect. Bulk seating clears most access constraints here. Panel systems, casegoods, and anything over eight feet do not, which on this line means the Barcelona Chair gets an access check before it gets a price.
Knoll sits in the premium tier new, which is exactly why second life is worth the trouble: 40-55% off, second life, on a piece that carried a 12-year manufacturer warranty from the factory. Installs happen around production schedules and shift changes. A Saturday here is often easier for everyone than a Tuesday afternoon.
A design house since 1938. Mid-century modern that became the canon: Barcelona, Saarinen, Bertoia, Womb. Pieces that still set the standard. Set that against what Sunnyvale actually asks for — Hardware and lab space, Heavy-duty commercial grade and Moffett Park coverage — and the Barcelona Chair and Saarinen Table are the two pieces we place most often here.
Same brand, same network, one market over. We move stock between these regularly.
Open line means we are not boxed into one catalog. We have access to second life inventory from almost every commercial furniture brand on the planet. If you can name it, we can probably find it.
