Abstract
A flat foldable carrying case with a closed interior space is unfoldable to yield a lectern. The lectern / carrying case is formed from a box as well as left, right, bottom, and top flaps. The box has four sides which are connected to a back side, each at a right angle thereto. Each side of the box is rotatably adjoined to a respective side flap. The bottom flap is foldable after the sometimes identically sized left and right flaps fold into the box. Then the top flap is foldable. In some cases, the bottom flap is only foldable towards the box after the left and right flags are folded due to a wider bottom flap compared to the side flaps. In a folded condition with enclosed interior space, the top flap is parallel to the back side of the box.
