Zapf, Otto
  Otto Zapf arrived at Knoll in 1973, having designed numerous products in the European market, but chose to work for Knoll because “they are still an island of humanitarianism.” Seeking to design office products that improve the feel of workplaces, Zapf designed furniture that is user-friendly, comfortable and welcoming. The Zapf System represented the major Knoll foray into the systems business. Otto Zapf resides in Konigstein, Germany.
