Abstract
Furniture comprises a strong, aesthetically appealing, woven lattice of interlocking slats made of wood laminate having indentations allowing fitting of the slats across one another so as to form a lattice. Advantageously, the furniture is manufactured of a single type of material, such as bent wood laminate slats. No other supporting structural material is needed to make the furniture simultaneously possess the advantages of being sturdy, aesthetically appealing, economical to manufacture, and light in structure and appearance.
