Benefits of technology

The present invention is a functional chair that has a storage space for easy storage of items for the user. This is useful as it not only provides a place for the user's seating but also keeps their articles safe. The chair prevents the bag or briefcase from causing inconvenience to others and can secure seats easily. Additionally, the chair may provide an area to hang the user's clothes and prevents the user's articles from getting dirty when the user puts them on the ground.

Problems solved by technology

However, such a chair generally puts emphasis on protecting the user's lumbar and does not have various functions.
As described above, the conventional chair has several problems as follows because it does not have any storage space.
First, if the user puts his or her bag on the floor, the bag may get dirty and cause inconvenience to others.
Of course, the user may put the bag on another chair, but it causes reduction of chairs for others' seating.
However, in the case that the user lays his or her outer clothing across the backrest of the chair, some of the outer clothing located at an area of the backrest where the user's back touches may be creased due to the user leaning on the backrest of the chair.
