Dependent claims

A desk with support structures configured to attach modular attachments, the desk having a front side, a back side, a left side, and a right side as viewed by a user, wherein the desk comprises:

a work surface of the desk, wherein the work surface is disposed at a current height;
a left-side support structure disposed at the left side of the desk with respect to the work surface of the desk, wherein the left-side support structure supports at least part of the desk, wherein the left-side support structure includes a left-sided front opening and a left-sided back opening, wherein the left-sided front opening is closer to the front side of the desk than to the back side of the desk, and wherein the left-sided back opening is closer to the back side of the desk than to the front side of the desk;
a right-side support structure disposed at the right side of the desk with respect to the work surface of the desk, wherein the right-side support structure supports at least part of the desk, wherein the right-side support structure includes a right-sided front opening and a right-sided back opening, wherein the right-sided front opening is closer to the front side of the desk than to the back side of the desk, and wherein the right-sided back opening is closer to the back side of the desk than to the front side of the desk;
a core body disposed vertically at a rear side of the desk with respect to the work surface of the desk, wherein the core body extends laterally between the left side and the right side of the desk, wherein the core body is coupled to the left-side support structure and coupled to the right-side support structure;
a working body that provides the work surface of the desk, wherein the working body is configured to be supported by the core body at the rear side of the desk;
a modular attachment for the desk;
and
one or more mounting brackets configured to mechanically couple the modular attachment to either the left-side support structure or the right-side support structure such that a side of the modular attachment is disposed in either the left-sided front opening or the right-sided front opening, and further such that the modular attachment is supported by either the left-side support structure or the right-side support structure, respectively.

a right-side support structure disposed at the right side of the desk with respect to the work surface of the desk, wherein the right-side support structure supports at least part of the desk, wherein the right-side support structure includes a right-sided front opening and a right-sided back opening, wherein the right-sided front opening is closer to the front side of the desk than to the back side of the desk, and wherein the right-sided back opening is closer to the back side of the desk than to the front side of the desk;
a core body disposed vertically at a rear side of the desk with respect to the work surface of the desk, wherein the core body extends laterally between the left side and the right side of the desk, wherein the core body is coupled to the left-side support structure and coupled to the right-side support structure;
a working body that provides the work surface of the desk, wherein the working body is configured to be supported by the core body at the rear side of the desk;
a modular attachment for the desk;
and
one or more mounting brackets configured to mechanically couple the modular attachment to either the left-side support structure or the right-side support structure such that a side of the modular attachment is disposed in either the left-sided front opening or the right-sided front opening, and further such that the modular attachment is supported by either the left-side support structure or the right-side support structure, respectively.
