Cercle | Visitor chair – Poltrona Frau

Designed by
Lievore – Altherr – Park

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.

In the Cercle office chair, ergonomic design is particularly refined. The synchronized mechanism is integrated into the monocoque and further optimized by Poltrona Frau for top comfort performance. The frame is made of polyurethane with a metal insert. The padding is made of polyurethane foam with differentiated density for enhanced comfort areas and quilted with polyester wadding. The polished or black-painted aluminum base has four spokes with swivel glides made of thermoplastic material and a protective Teflon tip. The Cercle office chair features a “return” mechanism that allows the chair to rotate and return to its original position via a thrust bearing. It can be fully upholstered in Pelle Frau^® or in a version combining leather on the shell with fabric on the inner surface.
