1970s Furniture

Monica recently commented that she loved some of the furniture we had in our family room and how she has recently looked for it online. I confessed that I had recently referenced it and hoped we could amass some individual photos that might have them in the pictures, so as to get a look as a whole. I want to say that mom said they were Scandinavian. As I remember, there were 3-4 pieces to them made out of wood about 8 inches from the floor. They were deep set so that a 3 inch black cushion could fit in the crevice as pictured in the photo of Darron and Tony. The unique thing about them was that they were completely versatile so black mats, orange chairs or aqua blue chairs could go in any given space. So mixing and matching colors or one black cushion and one chair could be arranged next to each other. We could also take out the chair part and place on the floor and sit there to watch tv. May seem trivial, but these were pretty slick at the time, almost like our modern day Ikea furniture. Hoping others have photos of our furniture and can add.

In the picture entitled Darron 3 you can see the white table with matching white swivel orange space aged chairs. The table was one piece of hard white space aged material. This matched the family room set of benches.
