- More Info - This chair is an icon of Australian design and is shown in museums all over the world. The design for the Contour Chair came to Featherston while sitting on a tram, casually bending his tram ticket around with his hand. He noticed the shape which was formed by the two ends arched towards each other. It is a very padded, comfortable lounge chair. The big body compared to the thin tapered legs makes the chair look very inviting. The upholstery is available in leather, wool and cashmere in a variety of colours. There is also a matching ottoman.
