Abstract

A segment and frame for furniture and a method of assembling the furniture are provided which allow easy installment and removal of the segment by an individual. The segment preferably has rib-like side portions which are received into channels formed on the frame. The length of the segment is substantially the same as the distance between the frame members, so that the need for heating, stretching, and cooling of the segment for attachment to the frame is eliminated, and the assembly or disassembly can easily be performed by a single person. That is, one person can easily attach and secure the segment to the frame without special equipment or using fasteners such as screws or rivets. A single, wide segment or a plurality of segments may be used for the furniture, and decorative surfaces and cutouts can be included in the segments to create a stylish look.
