A buoyant system reconfigures into an assortment of functional and ornamental configurations for supporting a user or object, creating an ornamental effect, and regulating buoyancy. The system adjustably reconfigures into an eclectic assortment of shapes, support structures, entertainment utilities, and ornamental objects while retaining buoyancy in a fluid. A frame member forms the base frame for the system. The frame member includes a plurality of hollow, lightweight, air filled tubes that join at a plurality of junctions. Each tube can rotate, swivel, bend, extend, retract, or detach to adjust the configuration of the system. A buoyant member, such as foam, encapsulates the frame member to provide a protective, aesthetic exterior shell. The buoyancy can also be adjusted by manipulating the volume and number of tubes and buoyant member, and releasing air from within the tubes.
