Abstract: A furniture assembly and its associated method of use. The assembly includes a plurality of lateral elements. Each of the lateral elements is held in parallel and forms the primary surfaces of the furniture. The lateral elements are held together in parallel by interconnected rigid linkage elements. Each rigid linkage element engages two adjacent elongated elements. The rigid linkage elements can fold into two configurations. In a first configuration, the rigid linkage elements lock together and form a first piece of furniture. In a second configuration, the rigid linkage elements either enable the assembly to be folded for storage or lock together to form a second piece of furniture.
