Furniture base with removable floor and storage

Abstract

A furniture base assembly is described in which a seat base defines a through cavity extending between opposite open ends. A seat pan is positionable at a top end of the cavity to provide a seating surface. A storage device, such as a container or a false floor, is receivable within the through cavity and is configured to establish a storage space below the seating surface. In certain embodiments, the storage device can hang from an upper region of the seat base or can be supported near a lower region of the seat base. The storage device can include an open-topped bin, a planar floor, or a molded structure that selectively closes off a lower portion of the through cavity. In additional embodiments, the seat pan can be arranged in multiple orientations, including pitched seating configurations, while the removable component remains installed within the seat base.
