Knoll introduced an oak chair, bench and stool series by Antonio Citterio called Klismos.

The klismos chair, an ancient Greek form with a wide, concave back and tapered legs, has seen many iterations—from ancient Egypt to midcentury England.

From the laid-back contours of the tufted, leather-clad sofas in the library to the formality of the dining room’s klismos chairs, it’s a dazzling mix.

Whether it’s a Klismos chair or an Arne Jacobsen Egg chair, good classic design lasts; trends do not.

Many of Soane’s most beloved furnishings, including the hand-forged-iron Stag table and the Quiver klismos chair, are on display in the new studio, along with the company’s complete fabric and wallpaper collection.
