Charles Pollock

Pollock, born in Philadelphia, began his design education at Cass Technical High School in Detroit. He later won a scholarship to study at Pratt Institute, where he graduated in 1953. After serving in the US Army for two years, where he was art editor for INFANTRY Magazine; Pollock worked with George Nelson at Herman Miller. In 1958 he left Nelson's office and began a fruitful relationship with Florence Knoll until his retirement in 1965. Vincent Cafiero, a member of the planning unit, saw great promise in the designer and early prototypes of his 657 Lounge: an elegant essay in leather, steel and plastic. Pollock's 1250 series, an innovative collection of management chairs with anstructural aluminum rim, was an instant classic and is still sold today.

Their approach, where craftsmanship joins technology through the use of design, sets the perspective and shapes the values that live today. 80 years of historical collaborations, with pioneering modernists and daring contemporary designers, define not only the past but the future through active, recent and future collaborations with Antenna Design, Don Chadwick, Formway Design, Jehs & Laub, Joseph D'Urso , David Adjaye and OMA.
