Abstract: An article of furniture is disclosed. The article of furniture comprises a stool configured to be used on a generally horizontal surface such as a floor. The stool comprises a seat and a base comprising a rounded bottom surface configured to rest upon the floor. A mass is positioned beneath the seat so that the base is at equilibrium in a first tilted orientation relative to the floor. The base can be tilted to second tilted orientation relative to the floor by tilting the rounded bottom surface of the base relative to the floor.

Abstract: A furniture assembly comprising a first frame structure having front and rear portions and including at least a first leg member and a first rail member supported by the at least a first leg member where the first rail member has a first length dimension, second rail member supported by the at least a second leg member spaced apart from the first rail member wherein an assembly space includes the space between the first and second rail members, a first furniture sub-assembly having first and second ends, having a first depth dimension and a second furniture sub-assembly having first and second ends, a second depth dimension, wherein the combined first and second depth dimensions are less than the first length dimension.

Abstract: A hood assembly for use with furniture, the hood assembly comprising a frame structure including at least first and second rigid elongated frame members that are spaced apart by at least a first brace member and a fabric sock cover member that forms a passage that is open on at least one end, wherein the frame structure is slid into the passage to stretch the sock cover member over the frame structure and form an architectural structure including portions of the fabric sock cover member on either side of the frame member.
