Claims20
A modular desk assembly comprising:
- a first linkable desk, wherein the first linkable desk comprises:
- a support frame, wherein the support frame comprises:
- a pair of C-shaped spine members, wherein each C-shaped spine members comprises:
- a first section;
- a second section;
- and
- a third section vertically disposed between the first section and the second section, wherein the third section couples the first section and the second section;
- and
- a kickstand base, wherein the kickstand base couples the pair of C-shaped spine members, and wherein the kickstand base is disposed proximate the second sections and the third sections of the C-shaped spine members;
- a top panel coupled to the first sections of the pair of C-shaped spine members of the support frame;
- a storage shelf;
- and
- a desktop organization member;
- wherein the first linkable desk is adapted to couple to a second linkable desk of a modular desk assembly, wherein the second linkable desk comprises a pair of C-shaped spine members.
