Ellie is a synergy of a simple form and functionality. It is both a comfortable, soft chair and an ergonomic office chair. It can fit into any interior, making it all the more beautiful. The chair with its many configuration options, fashionable finish colors, and unique rounded-shaped seat, attracts your attention and fulfills all your needs.

It is user-friendly and its form is modern, elegant, and simple. Recline or lock out the back, Ellie offers a variety of different ways to get and stay comfortable. Precision and attention to detail are particularly important in joining the different colors of fabric. With Ellie, the choices of upholstery are endless.

You can upholster the back with a different fabric than the front which is the same for the seat. Mid-back and high-back models satisfy even the most demanding of users. Bases include 5-star, 4-star, wire, and wood. From practical to elegant and in between.

The versatility, minimalism, and functionality of the unique Ellie chair combined with its distinctive design is a recipe for the perfect chair. Thanks to a wide range of fabric, two back heights, and various bases, this one product will help you arrange any space. A unique feature of Ellie is the upholstery. Not only is there visible craftsmanship and attention to detail but the possibilities for mixing different fabric textures and color patterns are endless. Ellie is lightweight but its construction and bases are durable to hold up to the daily rigors of any number of multiple users across a variety of spaces. Whether commercial, healthcare, or education market, Ellie embodies the durable material or design to be a top performer.
