Abstract: A ready to assemble furniture construction, such as a chair, includes frameless, self-supporting panel members which easily collapse into a flat configuration and expand into a self-supporting volumetric structure. In a preferred chair construction, a seat panel, back panel, and a skirt panel are supported between two, spaced panel members each of which are defined by two like-shaped flexible sheets which are secured together in a predetermined configuration which allows the sheets to expand from the flat configuration to their self-supporting volumetric form. Each of the sheets forming the panel member is generally square and has four generally linear peripheral edges which are secured together to form a closed panel structure. The sheets further include arcuate, inwardly curved, living hinges extending along the length of each peripheral edge of the sheet.
