Abstract
A furniture member may include a stationary base frame, a seat bottom frame, a seat bottom cushion, a seatback frame, and a seatback cushion. The base frame may include a forward support, an aft support, and a pair of armrests that extend between the forward support and the aft support. The forward, aft and lateral supports are stationary and fixed relative to each other. The seat bottom frame may be supported by the base frame. An upper end of the seatback frame may be pivotably coupled to the aft support such that the seatback frame is rotatable relative to the aft support and the seat bottom frame between a first position and a second position. A lower end of the seatback cushion has a greater range of motion than an upper end of the seatback cushion when the seatback frame moves between the first and second positions.
