A portable seating apparatus and method for easy assembly/disassembly of the same is described. The apparatus is designed for easy display of theme based design components which may be easily changed with minimal effort and complication. The assembly includes standing and swing type embodiments. The apparatus comprises seat, side support, and back rest components. The seat component generally comprises one or more substantially horizontal seat members and a front frontboard member to be removably attached with the front of the seat component. Right and left side support components include integral seat support, arm rest and back rest support portions. The backrest component includes at least one backboard member. Outward facing component members including frontboard member with or without optional faceplate, seat component members, side support component members and backboard members having design elements (for example indicia, designs, 3 dimensional molded design elements) are easily changed by swapping out one or more members with similar component members containing different design element. Example embodiments includes inside and outside side support members that are combined at the right and left side support components to allow the outside side support members to be changed while keeping the inside side support members attached to the other seating and backrest components. Example embodiments include and inside and outside backboard members allowing an inside backboard member containing design elements to be changed without detaching the outside backboard member. Example steps for easily assembly and disassembly of both standing and suspended embodiments are described.
