The Builders

The Builders refers to a social movement founded in 1951 by Florence Knoll and other design professionals to promote good architectural and interior design practices. They emphasize creating functional, aesthetically pleasing spaces that enhance quality of life, sustainability, and community well-being. By setting high standards for structural integrity, materials, and design principles, The Builders aim to elevate the profession, foster innovation, and ensure that built environments serve both practical needs and cultural values. Essentially, they focus on responsible, thoughtful design that positively impacts society and the environment.
