Jorge Pensi established his Barcelona-based multidisciplinary design practice with Alberto Lievore in 1977 after studying architecture in his native Buenos Aires. Pensi also collaborates with his wife, Carmen Cesares, on graphic design projects. He has lectured on design in Spain, the United States and at the Royal College of Art in London.
The Design
Barcelona architect and industrial designer Jorge Pensi brings his forward-looking aesthetic to Knoll with the Toledo chair, which stands out among coffeehouse chairs. The Toledo chair is a fluid combination of cast-aluminum back and seat sections joined by tubular aluminum arms and legs. The chair's material makes it versatile in application, appropriate for indoor and outdoor use.

With a long history of design innovation for the home, workplace, and in textiles, Knoll continues to play a large part in the foundations of Modern Design. Founded in 1938 by Hans Knoll and continued after his death by his wife Florence Knoll, the company has produced a long line of award-winning and museum worthy designs from virtually every top designer in modern design.
Knoll believes good design is good business. Since its founding, Knoll has been recognized as a design leader worldwide, with products exhibited in major art museums spanning the globe, and more than 40 pieces in the permanent Design Collection of The Museum of Modern Art in New York. Legendary designs such as the Womb Chair, the Tulip Chair, and the Barcelona Lounge Chair and Ottoman are instantly recognizable icons of the company.
In addition to Knoll’s commitment to design, Knoll is an industry leader in environmentally responsible practices. All manufacturing facilities in North America are ISO 14001-certified, and all Knoll architecture and design managers are required to attain LEED® Professional Accreditation, a rating system of the US Green Building council that is a voluntary, consensus-based national standard for developing high-performance sustainable buildings.
