Furniture

Furniture was a collective term for movable objects which may support a being's body, provide storage, or hold objects above the ground. Some examples of furniture were chairs, tables, beds, and lamps.

Usage[]

Cubes took offence to circular furniture, forcing the USS Cerritos to remove such furniture from some areas of the ship to avoid offending the Cube delegation. Against Commander Jack Ransom's explicit orders, Ensign Olly loaded one hundred pieces of this furniture onto a single large anti-grav sled simply to prove that she could, inverting the weight threshold to achieve this. The furniture initially held fast but ended up falling on Olly and Ransom when her electrical powers accidentally short-circuited the sled and caused it to speed off. (LD: "Of Gods and Angles")

Background information[]

According to the The Making of Star Trek The Motion Picture [page number? • edit], the Aaamazzarites created their furniture biochemically from inside their own bodies.

Early designs (citation needed • edit) for the bridge of the USS Enterprise-D included much furniture to achieve a "living room" look and feel.
