Folding screen environment system

Abstract

The disclosed apparatus and system provides for two or more interacting screens that have elements such as shelves, tables, desks, lamps, lights, beds, sinks, ranges or drawers stored within the appropriate screen, when not in use, and in most instances suspended from the appropriate screen or screens, when in use. The screens and most of the elements interrelate when in a fully set up configuration. The screens with elements in the stored configuration may be moved against a wall, into a space in the wall or into a closet. The screens with elements in a set up configuration are stabilized by interacting hinges, locks and stabilization legs. The screens are also interconnected with conduits to permit utility, electrical, water and communications connections to be available at the appropriate screen. The system provides a quickly and easily set up and stored environment for use as a work, play, privacy or sleep area. Some of the elements are designed to be free standing when in use.
