Creating the Perfect Living Space with Australian-Designed Contemporary Furniture

Discover the most exceptional contemporary furniture that Australia has to offer through Kett’s carefully curated collection of modern Australian- designed furniture. Your living space is the soul of your home—a place where we unwind, connect with loved ones, and create lasting memories. Every choice matters profoundly. When it comes to crafting a living space that resonates with timeless elegance and exceptional craftsmanship, Australian-designed contemporary furniture from Kett delivers both beauty and function, from selecting the perfect sofa and coffee table to curating inviting storage solutions.

Seating Collections: Define Your Space

When furnishing your living room, selecting the right seating is paramount. These pieces define the room’s style, comfort, and atmosphere. Kett’s contemporary seating offers versatile options suited to every space size and lifestyle need.

Sofas for Every Living Room

The Eriksen Sofa is designed for generously sized living rooms seeking contemporary elegance. Drawing inspiration from the graceful flow of waterfalls, it blends comfort with a modern aesthetic. Its sweeping, curved arms mimic natural forms, while ample cushioning ensures both engaging conversation and relaxed lounging are equally delightful experiences. Crafted with premium upholstery, Eriksen delivers both sculptural beauty and everyday comfort.

For more compact settings, the Johanna and Otway sofas offer elegant solutions. Both feature slim timber legs that provide warmth and visual lightness while preserving floor space. The Johanna and Otway are available as two or three-seater configurations, with the Otway also offering modular options for flexible living arrangements. Solid oak construction ensures durability and natural aesthetic appeal.

Lounge Chairs for Living and Beyond

Johanna Occasional Chair

The Johanna Occasional Chair combines beautiful curves with a low back, offering an inviting seat with timeless appeal. Fully upholstered and featuring timber legs, its curvaceous form seamlessly fits both formal and relaxed environments. Beyond the living room, this chair’s elegant profile and compact footprint make it perfect for bedrooms, studies, or accent placement in larger spaces. Its refined proportions visually expand the room whilst adding an unmistakable design presence.

Otway Lounge Chair

The Otway Lounge Chair offers a smaller yet equally comfortable accent option. Characterized by its soft timber profile and gentle arch in solid ash, it features tapered legs and refined upholstery available in fabric or leather. This versatile piece works seamlessly in living rooms, bedrooms, or as a side chair in an office. The Otway’s understated sophistication complements both minimalist and eclectic interiors.

Mixing Styles for Added Interest

If you’re looking to infuse a bit of diversity into your living space, consider mixing styles. While the Erskine and Johanna collection offers a lounge chair that match, combining different shapes and styles can create a more intriguing and visually captivating environment.

Storage Solutions for Organized Elegance

Contemporary living requires smart storage that doubles as design statement. Kett’s storage pieces combine aesthetic refinement with practical function.

Frame Living System

Modern living rooms demand organized solutions—TVs, sound systems, and countless cords can quickly overwhelm a space. The Frame Living System solves this challenge elegantly, concealing cords whilst providing efficient storage for all your living room essentials. This innovative solution eliminates the need for multiple bulky furniture pieces, creating a streamlined, gallery-like environment.

Otway Sideboard

The Otway Sideboard is a contemporary storage masterpiece. Seamlessly combining functionality with sleek design, it features minimalist groove handles and soft-close drawers for discreet yet intuitive operation.


Crafted from solid oak, the legs, outer frame, and top showcase the natural beauty of timber grain, adding warmth to your space. The doors, drawers, and shelving are meticulously veneered to match, creating a seamless, elegant composition. For those seeking additional refinement, an optional ceramic top elevates the Otway to luxury status whilst providing superior durability and ease of maintenance.

Selecting the Perfect Coffee Table

Your coffee table serves as the visual centerpiece of your seating arrangement. Beyond aesthetics, it must balance form and function—serving as a display surface for decorative items, a casual dining spot during movie nights, and a practical hub for daily living.

Size and Proportion

Ensure your coffee table’s dimensions harmonize with your seating area. A general guideline: your table should be approximately two-thirds the length of your sofa. However, adjust this ratio to suit your specific requirements and movement through the space.

Choosing the Right Shape

Kett’s designer living room furniture includes coffee tables in multiple shapes. The Otway round coffee table suits smaller spaces perfectly, whilst the Otway trestle coffee table complements longer sofas. If you prefer a round table but worry it might appear too small, pair it with the Johanna ottoman, which tucks neatly beneath for visual balance and adds multi-functional versatility. This layered approach to styling creates depth and flexibility without compromising floor space.

Durability and Maintenance

Kett’s pieces are meticulously crafted for enduring beauty. Timber surfaces develop a natural patina that enhances character over time. To protect delicate finishes, use coasters for cups and glasses. For those preferring hassle-free maintenance, our porcelain-finish options provide an extra layer of resilience and luxurious tactile appeal, combining easy care with sophisticated aesthetics.

Bringing It All Together

Creating the perfect living space means selecting contemporary furniture Australia deserves—pieces that flow seamlessly together whilst reflecting your lifestyle. Whether you’re starting fresh or refining an existing room, Kett’s collection of Australian-designed, beautifully-crafted furniture provides the foundation for a warm, inviting, and elegantly organized living environment.
