Details

Designed by Michael Hirst in Melbourne, circa 1960, this mid-century armchair references classic safari chair aesthetics within the campaign furniture tradition. The form reflects the typology’s focus on sturdiness, portability, and straightforward assembly associated with travel.

Seat and backrest are finished in black vinyl, paired with full-grain leather armrests for tactile support. Clean, understated lines emphasise the design’s pragmatic character.

Hirst worked as a designer from 1955 to 1983 and was posthumously inducted into the Design Institute of Australia in 2017.

Dimensions: 54 cm W x 46.5 cm D x 82.5 cm H; Seat height: 44 cm.
