Mobile folding restaurant booth style benches are provided, which may be arranged in opposed pairs to form restaurant style booths. An individual bench incorporates a mechanism for shifting the weight of the bench between a mobile base, which may be supported by swivel casters, and a stationary base, which may be supported by non-slip feet, actuated by pivoting a bench seat down from a folded storage position to an unfolded seating position. The weight shifting mechanism may include an engagement member, which is initially spaced apart from an actuator at a folded angle of the seat, and which contacts and begins transmitting force and movement to the actuator at a partially unfolded angle of the seat. Preferably, the bench further includes a biasing component that biases the stationary base upward relative to the mobile base, a locking mechanism that resists a force provided by the biasing component to retain the bench seat in the unfolded seating position, contoured shells or other covers for the seat and a seat back, and a back panel extending vertically above the seat back.

A modular furniture unit can be configured to provide power distribution in conjunction with other furniture features. Embodiments of furniture arrangements may utilize one or more modular furniture units to provide one or more of such features (e.g. storage, seating, privacy, work surface, lighting, etc.). In some embodiments, the modular furniture unit includes an elongated upper member having an upper slot that has a first end and a second end opposite its first end. At least one leg is attached to the first end and at least one leg is attached to the second end. The elongated upper member may have a channel through which power cabling passes and outlets that are connected to such cabling. Different elements can be connected to the upper member via the upper slot or a downward facing opening of the upper member and/or to the legs to provide different furniture arrangements.

A seating system with an elastically moveable backrest capable of being arranged in different configurations in a settee area of a bowling center is disclosed. The seating system includes a configurable seating arrangement including at least one bench seat configured to accommodate one or more users and a respective number of elastically moveable backrests for each of the one or more users. The configurable seating arrangement further includes a bracket assembly which attaches the respective number of elastically moveable backrests to the at least one bench seat.

A portable desk apparatus that allows a user to enjoy a complete office experience is provided for. In a preferred embodiment, the portable desk is comprised of a separably attached desk portion and seat portion. The desk portion is preferably constructed out of a desk member, a slip light, a foldable cup holder, a desk support member, a desk attachment mechanism, a desk extension member, and at least one ground support member. The chair portion is preferably constructed out of a seat member, two pairs of legs equipped with two support members, and a foldable seat back member. The entire apparatus may be collapsed for each transportation or storage, and may be extended to be used as an office.

Disclosed is a novel furnishing assembly. The assembly is comprised of multiple components, which are nestable or stackable in relation to one another. The components may be of different sizes and may mimic each other in structure. Each component is comprised of a top panel, two opposing legs, and one or more handles. A smaller component can be stacked on a larger component to form a stand up desk or lectern or the like. Each component can be used for various purposes, including as a stool, desk, or chair. Each leg includes two feet, which can be covered with glides. Each component can be secured to a substructure or include a crossmember for added stability. The components can include other components for improved functionality, including a magnet, a door, a drawer, a keyboard tray, or a storage box.
