A furniture piece comprises a back section, a seat section, a leg section, a pair of laterally spaced arm sections, and a pair of front corner sections which are respectively disposed beneath the pair of laterally spaced arm sections and disposed upon opposite sides of said leg section. The pair of front corner sections, the leg section, and the seat section comprise cushioned sections such that collectively, the pair of front corner sections, the leg section, and the seat section define a T-cushioned structure for the furniture piece. In addition, the pair of front corner sections are movable in forward and backward directions and have storage compartments defined therein such that when either one of said pair of front corner sections is moved forwardly from a retracted or closed position, to an extended or open position, the storage compartment is rendered accessible such that items can be inserted into or removed from the storage compartment.

An upholstered piece of furniture with a frame including a pair blow molded hollow arm rest forms, wherein spanning wood frame members extend between the forms. The wood frame members secured to the forms with interference fits, and minimal threaded fasteners. The arm rest forms have through slots which allow the seat deck and arm upholstery to be pulled through and anchored with staples providing a secure attachment. Threaded fasteners clamp onto the polymer wall of the forms for attachment of frame members. A blowmolded backrest has a metal reinforcing arms connecting to a seat platform. Holes in arm rest allow upholstery panel connections with Christmas tree connectors. The connections to the arm rest forms and providing a geometrically rigid and robust sofa frame that is weighs less, is quicker to assemble, and is more robust. The finishing of the sofa is also quicker and easier than conventional sofas.

A method and apparatus include attaching a lighted cup holder to a seating arrangement. The lighted cup holder includes a cup holder body and a light-producing light source, with the cup holder body being attached to the seating arrangement and having a cup receptacle therein, the light-producing source being disposed within the cup receptacle for illuminating the receptacle. A light-sensitive element operatively connected to the light source selectively controls production of light by the light source in such a manner that illumination of the cup holder is provided only under conditions where visibility is reduced to the point that it becomes difficult to locate the cup holder. The light-sensitive element is mounted on a master lighted cup holder and controls illumination of the master lighted cup holder and one or more slave lighted cup holders operatively connected to the master lighted cup holder.
