Abstract
A modular system for creating a temporary plurality of individual living spaces, may include a plurality of anchors, where pairs of anchors create opposing sides of a personal space. A frame may be positioned between the pairs of anchors to create a bedding structure. The anchors may also provide storage space, lights, power source, among other features of a living area. A covering may be used between the pairs of anchors to separate the living space from the rest of the space to improve individual privacy.

A collapsible modular system comprising:
- an anchor comprising a first side and a second side wherein the first side has a first support and a storage space and the second side is positioned opposite the first side and has a second support;
- a plurality of walls wherein at least one side of a first wall of the plurality of walls securably engages the anchor at a first end on the first side and a second wall of the plurality of walls securably engages the anchor at a second end on the second side;
- and
- a bed frame having at least one of a plurality of slats and a support structure engaging surface along a narrow end of the bed frame configured to engage a support structure positioned within a cavity wherein the bed frame is supported on the first support of—a—first anchor of a pair of adjacent said anchors and the second support of a second anchor of the pair of adjacent anchors;
- a covering configured to engage a top surface of the first wall rotatably connected on a covering first edge to the anchor on the first side and rotated 90 degrees from the anchor, and a top surface of the anchor further wherein the covering has a first position to extend over an opening and a second position exposing the opening.
