The aspects of the disclosed embodiments relate to a convertible furniture, including at least a first and a second furniture part and thereto supported at least one bed and at least one table part; and pivoting means including a hinge structure between the at least two furniture parts.

The pivoting means are arranged to guide the movement of the furniture part between at least a table position, where at least one table part is arranged horizontally, thereby forming a horizontal table surface, and the at least one bed is unusable; and a bed position, where the at least one bed is usable, and the at least one table part is unusable,

The pivot point (P) of the hinge structure is arranged as a virtual pivot point outside the furniture parts. The disclosed embodiments also relates to a method using the furniture.

A convertible carrel which includes a desk assembly and a carrel assembly. The desk assembly includes a first desktop, a first sidewall coupled to the first desktop, and a second sidewall coupled to the first desktop. The carrel assembly includes a second desktop, a first partition wall coupled to the second desktop, and a second partition wall coupled to the second desktop. The carrel assembly is rotatable relative to the desk assembly between: (1) an open position whereby the second desktop and the first and second partition walls extend vertically upward from the first desktop to form a privacy barrier; and (2) a closed position whereby the second desktop extends across and covers the first desktop and the first and second partition walls are hidden from view.

A table includes a frame, a rotatable component, and a rotation mechanism. The frame has a pair of rotation bearings. The rotatable component has a first rotation position and a second rotation position. The rotatable component includes a pair of pivot portions supported by the pair of rotation bearings. The rotatable component further includes a first work surface configured to support preparation of a first wiring harness in the first rotation position. The rotatable component further includes a second work surface configured to support preparation of a second wiring harness in the second rotation position. The rotation mechanism is coupled with the rotatable component and is configured to rotate the rotatable component between at least the first rotation position and the second rotation position.

A smart desk and barricade provide ad-hoc protection during emergencies and an augmented presentation environment. A first desk tabletop includes a connection positioned on an underside of the first desk tabletop, that is configured for detachable coupling to a desk frame. Removal of the tabletop from the desk frame provides a shield. An interlocking element is positioned on one or more edges of the first desk tabletop. The interlocking element is configured to temporarily connect to an edge of a second desk tabletop. A temporary attachment of the first desk tabletop to the second desk tabletop forms a barricade system. In some embodiments, a computing device is integrated into the desk tabletop. A smart room environment may network the desk with integrated computing device to other computing devices in the room.
