За редким исключением в основе создания мягкой мебели лежит жесткий каркас. Это несущая конструкция, которая может выполняться из различных материалов - стекловолокна, пластика, металла, древесины или их комбинаций. Исторически, в ХХ веке металл сыграл значимую роль в дизайне мягкой мебели и по сей день с успехом применяется в видимых частях каркаса. Но все же древесина традиционно занимает ведущую роль в создании рамных каркасов.

Just over a month later, on February 24, 1831, the expedition sighted bare mountain tops through the ocean ice. Biscoe correctly surmised that they were part of a continent and named the area Enderby Land in honour of his patrons. On February 28, a headland was spotted, which Biscoe named Cape Ann; the mountain atop the headland would later be named Mount Biscoe.

Marine biology is the scientific study of organisms in the ocean or other marine or brackish bodies of water. Given that in biology many phyla, families and genera have some species that live in the sea and others that live on land, marine biology classifies species based on the environment rather than on taxonomy. Marine biology differs from marine ecology as marine ecology is focused on how organisms interact with each other and the environment, while biology is the study of the organisms themselves.

Biscoe kept the expedition in the area while he began to chart the coastline, but after a month his and his crews' health were deteriorating. The expedition set sail toward Australia, reaching Hobart, Tasmania in May, but not before two crew members had died from scurvy.
