The cushion is attached by a hinge allowing it to open and close. Inside is also lined with a satin fabric, even though it's a bit dirty now, it was ment to be opened, and made to look nice

The only things that appears to be different than any mid century chair I've ever seen is the seat cushion lifts up in the model... Maybe a special storage design patent he was trying for?
