Seating unit

A seating unit, comprising:

• a support structure including a contoured seat and back support, said support structure being comprised of a plurality of separate and independent sub-units, each contoured to include a portion of the seat and back support;
• a plurality of separate and independent pieces of resilient foam covering the seat and back support portions of each of said sub-units, said resilient foam having a non-seat and back shaped outer seating surface which is in non-conformity with the contour of the sub-unit, said resilient foam including a plurality of apertures shaped and arranged to provide the foam with sufficient flexibility whereby the foam upon being deformed by an occupant assumes a seat and back support shape corresponding to the contoured seat and back support of the support structure and the occupant is supported by the support structure;
• fabric covering each foam covered sub-unit;
• and means for supporting the individual fabric and foam covered sub-units in a spaced relationship to each other to form the seating unit of a plurality of individual spaced fabric and foam covered sub-units having spaces therebetween, whereby the unoccupied seating unit has a dismembered non-seating unit visual appearance, which provides a pre-determined seating contour when occupied.
