Konzert is a modular office furniture system developed by Italian designer Paolo Dell'Elce for US furniture brand Knoll. Designed for private office environments, the collection combines panels, tables, seating, and storage components that can be configured in multiple arrangements. The system draws on modernist principles associated with Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, incorporating clean lines and a structured approach to workplace planning. Components can be combined to create wall-to-wall installations tailored to different spatial requirements.
The system supports a wide range of storage layouts through adjustable shelves and cabinets available in varying heights and depths. Open and closed configurations can be created using optional doors and integrated storage elements. Konzert is designed to be reconfigurable over time, allowing layouts to adapt as workplace needs change. Finish options include veneer, wood grain, laminate, and melamine surfaces.
