1.29.15 | Cerritos, CA | Casual seating takes on a new perspective with the introduction of Clipse, a striking family of lounge, love seat and sofa offerings from Encore that illuminates its surroundings.  Characterized by its remarkable versatility, Clipse forges a bold path that intersects between the residential and contract markets and elevates the visual appeal of a wide variety of multi-use spaces and non-traditional work environments.
 
Designed by David Ritch and Mark Saffell of 5d Studio, the series features subtle design details across all models such as a back cushion cradled within the frame, tapered arms, and generous proportions that exceed expectations for its deceptively small footprint. Equally at home in corporate and higher education environments or lobbies, healthcare and hospitality settings, Clipse provides a welcome place to wait, collaborate or simply relax.
 
Lounge models can be specified with fixed legs, casters or a swivel base with self-return, and select versions are offered with functional accessories such as power and data units with optional USB connectivity. All bases are available in standard Metallic Silver, Graphite, Satin Black and Chrome finishes, as well as premium finishes to satisfy a range of aesthetic preferences.
 
When freedom of movement and flexibility are a priority, on-trend mobile lounge chairs deliver, particularly when equipped with the available rotating tablet which can be specified for right or left arm positions and features a full 360-degree turning radius.  An assortment of durable surface options, including laminate and Corian, further enhance performance for demanding environments such as universities, libraries, touchdown areas and training spaces.
 
“David Ritch and Mark Saffell have done it again,” states David Logsdon, Encore’s Director of Sales. “With the launch of Clipse, 5d Studio has managed to create an exceptional lounge seating collection that aligns perfectly with the trend we’re seeing in the contract and residential markets, where the lines between them are being blurred seamlessly without compromising on comfort or performance.  It’s a match made in heaven.”
