INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors of the
The Knoll Group Retirement Savings Plan


We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits
of the Knoll Group Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 1994,
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for
the year then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.  The financial statements of The Knoll
Group Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 1993 were audited by other
auditors whose report, dated June 17, 1994, expressed an unqualified opinion on
those statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1994, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The additional information included in
the supplemental schedules is presented for purposes of additional analysis and
is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974.  The fund information in the statement of net assets available for
benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is
presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net
assets available for Plan benefits and changes in net assets available for
Plan benefits of each fund.  The supplemental schedules and fund information
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN                            

The following brief description of The Knoll Group Retirement Savings
Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. 
Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description or the Plan agreement
for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

                                                      
GENERAL

The Plan, established January 1, 1992, is a defined contribution plan
for all U.S. employees of The Knoll Group (the Company) who are not covered by
a collective bargaining agreement and who have completed 30 days of service.
The Plan merged assets of Company employees covered under the former Knoll
International, Inc., Employees Savings and Protection Plan, the former
Shaw-Walker Gain Plan and Company employees who previously participated in the
Westinghouse Personal Investment Plan. Participants in these former plans were
eligible for the Plan on January 1, 1992.  The Company is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Westinghouse Electric Corporation (Westinghouse).  The Plan is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974 (ERISA).

                                                      
CONTRIBUTIONS

Plan participants can elect to defer up to 16 percent of their
compensation, subject to certain limitations, for the purpose of making
contributions to the Plan. The Company will match 40 percent of the first 6
percent of such participant contributions.  Participants may also make
after-tax contributions to the Plan, subject to provisions in the Plan.  In
addition, the Company may make discretionary contributions based on the
Company's performance.  No such contributions were made during 1994 and 1993.

                                                                             8

                                                                 THE KNOLL GROUP
                                                         RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

                                                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                              
PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
contribution, the Company's matching contribution, and allocation of Plan
earnings. Administrative expenses not paid by the Company are allocated to each
participant's account. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account
balances, as defined in the Plan Agreement. Forfeitures of participants'
nonvested Company contributions are used to reduce future Company contributions
to the Plan. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that
can be provided from the participant's vested account.

                                                      
VESTING

Amounts contributed by participants are fully vested and nonforfeitable. 
Company contributions are vested in accordance with years of services.  A
participant is 100 percent vested after five years of service.  Plan
participants in the former Shaw-Walker Gain Plan and the Westinghouse Personal
Investment Plan are 100 percent vested in their accumulated Company
contributions as of January 1, 1992.  Thereafter, vesting for Company
contributions is subject to the aforementioned vesting schedule.

                               
INVESTMENT OPTIONS

Upon enrollment in the Plan, a  participant may direct contributions in any of
four investment options.

Westinghouse Fixed Income Fund - Funds are invested in shares of a
trust that invests in a variety of U.S. government securities and guaranteed
investment contracts (GIC) with insurance companies or other financial
institutions that guarantee a fixed rate.

MAS Balanced Fund - Funds are invested in shares of a registered
investment company that invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of common
stocks and fixed income securities.

ADMINISTRATION

The Knoll Group Retirement Plans Administration Committee (the Plan

exclusive right to interpret the Plan and to decide any matters arising in

BENEFITS

Any benefits provided by the Plan are paid by the trustee from assets
available for benefits.  Plan members are entitled to benefits to the extent of
the balance of their account on any applicable valuation date. Each
participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution plus his
or her pro rata share of earnings (losses).

                                                                             10

LOANS

Subject to limitations of the Plan agreement, the Plan may make loans
to participants. Principal and interest must be repaid over a period not to
exceed five years, unless the loan is used for a residential purchase. Interest
rates are established based on the prime rate provided by the Plan's trustee on
the last business day of the prior calendar quarter when the loan is requested,
plus 2 percent.  All loans are collateralized by the participants' vested
account balance in the Plan and are repaid from payroll deductions.

7. INVESTMENT IN MASTER TRUST

At, December 31, 1993, the Knoll Group Retirement Savings Plan had a 
beneficial interest in the assets of the Westinghouse Savings Program Master
Trust.  In 1994, Knoll's parent, Westinghouse Electric Corporation,
restructured its Westinghouse Personal Savings Plan and Westinghouse Personal
Investment Plan into the Westinghouse Savings Plan.  Upon completion of the
restructuring on September 30, 1994, the operations of the Westinghouse Savings
Program Master Trust were discontinued.  The Knoll Group Retirement Savings Plan
continues to have a beneficial interest in the Fixed 


                                                                              14

Income Fund maintained by Bankers Trust, through its trustee, Wachovia
Bank of North Carolina, N.A. (see note 2).

8. TAX STATUS                        

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on September 18, 1986, 
in which the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) stated that the Plan, as then
designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code (IRC).  The Plan has been amended, effective January 1, 1992,
since receiving the 1986 determination letter. An application for an updated
determination letter has been filed.  The Plan administrator believes that the
Plan, as is currently designed and being operated, is in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the IRC, and, as such, believes the Plan was
qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of December 31, 1994.
