Abstract

The disclosure relates to a system of storage components which can be converted to a desk. A storage member of orthogonal configuration has a top portion releasably secured to a bottom portion. Separable fastener means enable the top portion to be removed and reattached to the bottom portion to form a desk. Additional support means are provided to support the portion of the desk distal to the interface of the top and bottom portion where attached by the separable fastener means. The fastener means are integrated with the various portions of the storage components to provide a relatively unobtrusive surface for the desk when erected and for transport as well.
