Modular contoured furniture

A modular furniture construction comprising a first group of similar spaced apart parallel slat members of substantially equal length and of a first predetermined curved side profile, a second group of similar spaced apart parallel slat members of substantially equal length and of a second predetermined curved side profile, said second group of slat members being interlaced with said first group of slat members and being hingedly interconnected therewith where they interlace, means rigidly interconnecting said slat members in spaced relationship at each end thereof, and at least one tension bar member rigidly holding said first group and said second group of slat members in a predetermined relative angular disposition relative to the area of interlacing, said tension bar member being attached at each end to said means interconnecting said slat members in spaced relationship, wherein said first and second groups of slat members are interlaced intermediate the ends of each group, said means interconnecting said slat members at each end thereof comprises a rod passing through aligned apertures disposed proximate the end of said slat members, annular spacers disposed between consecutive adjacent slat members in each group for maintaining said consecutive adjacent slat members spaced apart at a substantially constant distance from each other which is at least equal to the width of said slat members, said rod passing through said annular spacers, and means at the end of said rod for anchoring together said rod, said annular spacers and said slat members, and wherein the opposite ends of the slat members of each of said groups define multiple legs for directly supporting said modular furniture structure.
