Guest seating takes a new spin with the introduction of Twirl from Encore. Characterized by a distinctive form and versatile palette of upholstery styles and base options, Twirl refashions vintage design elements to forge a contemporary guest chair that is sure to become an instant classic.
Purposefully designed, Twirl’s striking open backrest and angular seat geometry are key details to what makes this collection stand out. Available fully upholstered with tailored stitching or with a molded shell in an assortment of Ash wood finishes or glossy laminate colors, Twirl invites guests to experience continual comfort, whether in executive offices, waiting rooms or other multipurpose spaces.
The chair’s mix of wood and metal component options lend a sophisticated touch while also providing a myriad of combination possibilities – especially considering Encore’s plentiful selection of standard and premium finish choices. Four base styles, including wood and metal swivel versions with a convenient self-return feature, lend further appeal to Twirl’s upscale aesthetic and contribute to the successful makeup of the collection.
When faced with the challenge to create a distinct, versatile tub chair, product designer Christopher Panichella took inspiration from the architecture of Daniel Libeskind, Preston Scott Cohen and the late Zaha Hadid, whose structures commonly feature faceted and planar shapes. “This form language influenced the tapered ridgeline of the seat that elegantly meets the wrap-around back”, says Panichella. “The coupling of these two components gives the collection its signature dynamic character, while the reveal between them lends a visual lightness to the form.”
“With its sophisticated design language and variety of back shell materials and upholstery choices, Twirl represents yet another successful collaboration between Encore and Christopher Panichella, who has been responsible for other successful product series’ in the past such as Cielo, Particles and Playground,” states Tammie Alciatore, Brand Development Manager for Encore. “We anticipate this stunning guest chair to be a head-turner across corporate, hospitality and higher education markets alike.
Equally beautiful and comfortable, Twirl is as unique as they come, offering designers an uncommonly flexible seating option to complement virtually any decor.
