Abstract: A modular seating arrangement comprises a plurality of interconnected bases, each defining a pair of female sockets therein. A seat, disposed on the base, has a pair of releasable male fasteners secured thereon which engage within the female sockets. Each male fastener comprises an elongated member having a bifurcated end defining a pair of split locking portions which are expanded into interlocking relationship within a respective one of the female sockets. Back, arm and/or table components may be secured on the base to complete the modular seating arrangement.
Abstract: A furniture construction comprises a rigid frame having seat and back cushions removably mounted thereon. A rearward end of a support member for the seat cushion and a lower end of a support member for the back cushion meet at a common interface which forms an acute angle with respect to the planes of such members. A retaining member is secured on a back side of the support member for the back cushion to upwardly engage a retaining member secured on a back frame. The support member for the seat cushion is releasably attached to a bottom frame to provide the sole mechanical securance for both cushions to the frame.
