A hanging chair connectable to and suspendable from an external support structure that includes a lower frame member, arcuate frame members and a cover. The arcuate frame members are connected to the lower frame member. A first arcuate frame member from the arcuate frame members is substantially perpendicular to the lower frame member. A second arcuate frame member from the arcuate frame members and a third arcuate frame member from the arcuate frame members are pivotable between a collapsed position and an open position. The first arcuate frame member, the second arcuate frame member, and the third arcuate frame member are substantially parallel in the collapsed position. The cover extends over the arcuate frame members, and the lower frame member, the first arcuate frame member, and the cover cooperate to define an opening to an interior space.
