Cercle
In a changing world, the
word ‘sharing’ is a new point of departure for an original approach to the work
environment. The series of Cercle
office chairs exemplifies this concept starting with its name. In
fact, in Catalan a Cercle is a “circle of people that dialogue with each
other”. The project by Lievore,
Altherr and Park is perfectly consistent with Poltrona Frau’s new
vision of the executive office: forms and ideas that seek to promote
relationships and showcase designs that foster working methods more suited to
the contemporary manager who works in open spaces, sharing ideas and combining
his creative skills with those of his team. The ergonomics of the Cercle
office chair have been studied in particular depth. The synchronised mechanism
is integrated in the single shell and further optimised by Poltrona Frau to
offer high-quality comfort. The structure is made from polyurethane with
metallic insert. The padding is in differentiated-density polyurethane foam for
more comfortable areas and polyester wadding quilt. The polished aluminium or
black lacquered base has five spokes with the column connected to the cover
equipped with a gas spring and painted to match the finish of the base. The
automatic-braking “W” castors can be soft or hard. The Cuoio Saddle Executive
and Pelle Frau® leather covers, completely free of stitching, exalt the formal
beauty of the seat. Cercle can also be completely upholstered in Pelle
Frau® leather or come in a combination of leather or saddle-leather for the
structure and leather or fabric for the inside surface.
