Abstract
A modular accessory system is supportable on a vertical surface such as a wall, an office divider, or the like and includes a support member or base that supports decorative panels and/or functional panels to provide a desired appearance and/or functions for use in an area. The panels are repositionable, and some may be oriented in two or more different orientations on the support base. Engaging members are provided at spaced intervals along each panel, with additional engaging members provided at spaced intervals along the support base. The engaging members along the support base releasably engage the engaging members on the panels to support them on the support base.

A modular accessory system for mounting on a vertical surface, said system comprising:
- a support base that is supportable at a substantially vertical planar surface and that defines a substantially planar support surface spaced outwardly from the vertical planar surface;
- a removable panel comprising a surface, said removable panel comprising a first plurality of engaging members in spaced arrangement;
- a second plurality of engaging members for releasably engaging said first engaging members, said second engaging members in spaced arrangement along said support base;
- wherein said removable panel is repositionable at said support base at least two orientations via engagement of said first engaging members with said second engaging members, wherein a first of said orientations is at least about ninety degrees of rotation different from a second of said orientations.
A modular accessory system for mounting on a vertical surface, said system comprising:
- a support base that is supportable at a substantially vertical planar surface and that defines a substantially planar support surface spaced outwardly from the vertical planar surface, said support surface having a plurality of openings in spaced arrangement;
- a decorative panel supportable on said support base, said decorative panel comprising a first plurality of engaging members in spaced arrangement;
- a functional panel supportable on said support base and configured to perform a function for a user, said functional panel comprising a second plurality of engaging members in spaced arrangement;
- a third plurality of engaging members disposed in said openings of said support surface of said support base, said third engaging members for releasably engaging said first and engaging members;
- a rail-engaging member configured to engage a hanger rail positioned along the vertical support surface, for attaching said support base to the vertical support surface;
- and
- wherein said decorative panel is repositionable at said support base at least two orientations via engagement of said first engaging members with said third engaging members, wherein a first of said orientations is at least about ninety degrees of rotation different from a second of said orientations.
