  • Stackable, interlockable furniture modules
    Patent number: 8297206
    Abstract: A furniture module having a support surface and at least three legs extending therefrom. A first leg is placed adjacent a first edge of the support surface; while two second legs are placed adjacent a second edge of the support surface that is opposite to the first surface edge. The two legs are spaced apart by a distance that is substantially equal to the width of the first leg, and the first leg is spaced apart from the two second legs by a distance that is substantially the same as or greater than the width of the support surface. The outside edges of the first leg are configured for parallel alignment with the inside edges of the second legs to facilitate interlocking of the second legs of one module around the first leg of another module. Multiple modules may be combined to form various furniture designs.
