Phil Cater, a young British designer, has created the cantilever Whisper Wingback Chair
via CONTEMPORIST.
Update:
As per the discussions in the comments (thanks Phil for teaching us) I add a photo of the Bute Tweed fabric.

Another felt chair? 🙂
The fabric used was not felt but a great fabric called Bute Tweed from Scotland.
Hi Phil
Thank you for your comment. Now we all are curious what Bute Tweed is:-)
To quote the manufactures “an unashamedly retro fabric which has a simple woven structure and is made of pure new wool”. I just loved it as specks of colours in it and doesn’t look flat.
Thanks Phil
I take it that our textile guru Li Edelkoort will appreciate it:-)
