The entertainment hub provides a sleek, aesthetic and easy to use mechanism for controlling the chair/sofa and interfacing with remote devices. One embodiment of an entertainment hub for a seating apparatus comprising a body with a plurality of planar surfaces, wherein one of said plurality of surfaces comprises a substantially flat control panel. The control panel comprises a plurality of visual touch buttons, a remote device wireless charging pad, and a speaker. Wherein said body is arranged to be mounted in a piece of furniture with most of the body embedded in said piece of furniture with said control panel being visible and accessible.

An apparatus that supports a user in a variety of positions to comfortably perform tasks, such as applying one or more tattoos to skin of a subject is herein disclosed. The apparatus can be reconfigured to optimally position and support the arms and/or chest of the user. The apparatus includes a vertically movable armrest assembly. Armrests can support the user's forearms while supporting the user's chest such that the user can comfortably perform tasks in front of a chest support of the stool. The armrest assembly can be translated vertically to accommodate the user's body to achieve desired positioning.

An apparatus that supports a tattoo artist in a variety of positions to comfortably apply one or more tattoos to skin of a subject is herein disclosed. The apparatus can be reconfigured to optimally position and support the arms and/or chest of the tattoo artist. A method for using a tattoo stool can involve rotating armrests of the apparatus from a stowed position to a deployed position. The armrests can support the user's forearms while supporting the user's chest such that the user can comfortably tattoo a portion of the subject positioned in front of the stool.

Foldable seating assemblies are disclosed. The seating assemblies are configured to be mounted on a vertical surface, and to be stowed in an unobtrusive manner when not in use.

An expandable chair includes an extendable seat section which materially extends the width of the main seat section of the chair. When the width of the seat needs to be lengthened, lateral sections are provided which are rotated up from beneath the main center section of the seat and then locked adjacent to the center section. The lateral sections can be rotated down and locked beneath the center section when chair expansion is not desired. Extendable support arms, adjustable outward from the back section of the chair, are provided when the width of the seat's center section is lengthened. These support arms are located behind the back support section and are configured to be slid outward when needed. A unique rack and pinion gear system allows the support arms to be extended and locked in a plurality of lengths.

A stadium chair has a seat frame and a backrest frame pivotally coupled to the seat frame for rotation about an axis parallel to a rear portion of the seat frame. The backrest frame is capable of forward rotation about the axis toward the seat frame and rearward rotation about the axis away from the seat frame. A biasing element coupled to either the seat frame or the backrest frame causes forward biasing of the backrest frame toward a neutral position relative to the seat frame. The biasing element allows for limited rearward rotation of the backrest frame from the neutral position and allows for forward rotation of the backrest frame from the neutral position. The chair preferably is configured to receive optional rotatable armrests that may be installed or removed without the use of tools.

A body support structure including a pair of laterally spaced apart supporting arms defining a gap therebetween, wherein each of the supporting arms includes an upper support having an upwardly extending upright and a forwardly extending seat support defining a seat part, and a lower support having an upwardly extending upright spaced apart from the upright of the upper support in a vertical plane. The uprights of the upper and lower supports define a backrest part. A pair of armrests each includes an upwardly extending portion connected to a respective one of the forwardly extending seat supports and a forwardly extending portion pivotally connected to the backrest part. A cross brace extends between and is coupled to the supporting arms proximate the pivotal connection. A flexible membrane extends between and is coupled to the supporting arms.

A seating apparatus with one or more support members including one or more attachment points. The attachment points allow for attachment to a seating member for attachment to an attachment location of the one or more support members. The attachment points also allow for attachment to a one or more armrest member for attachment to an attachment location of the one or more support members.
