These cavities are filled with earth to obtain a continuous external covering surface (3), The skeleton is shaped so that said continuous external covering surface (3) creates a shape in the form of a piece of furniture, for example, in the form of an armchair, bench or the like. This surface is sown and cultivated to obtain grass (4) covering said shape in the form of a piece of furniture.
