This application describes a unique design and a method for designing furniture items that incorporate removable panels to either decorate or alter the use of a standard furniture item. The proposed furniture items take the form of standard furniture items but have recessed areas or cavities incorporated into different portions of the structure. These cavities correspond to and fit different panels which display artwork or different utility elements. These panels can be interchanged between different furniture items of the similar design.

A multifunctional furniture module is described, equipped with a connector with free ends with a linear recess where a fixed pin is fitted into the side faces of a plate, such pin sliding in a guided manner and being stopped by engaging a lid on the connector body, thus eliminating slacks and ensuring the structuring and finishing of the piece, such connector allowing for the multifunctionality and customization of the set, providing opportunity for altering the plates, connectors and lids, which may feature variations in textures and colors, among others, allowing for countless aesthetic combinations, apart from making the dismantling process easier, without damaging the structures, unlike the state-of-the-art solution, which require a number of steps, including the formation of holes and projections, requiring specific tools, as well as a set of operations for the assembly, which requires the alignment of the projection with the drilling and even so, at times results in a misaligned assembly of the adjacent plates.

Furniture, such as a bed, dresser, cabinetry has a display system affixing a stack of interchangeable decorative panels to the furniture. The display system has an overlaying panelar frame that captures the stack of panels and has at least one elongated fastener securing the overlaying panelar frame on to a surface of the furniture item. The stack of interchangeable panels are each visually different such as having different colors and/or patterns and can be sandwiched between the overlaying panelar frame and the mounting surface in a pocket to immovably maintain the interchangeable panels against the furniture component. The stack of interchangeable panels can be rearranged such that a different panel is placed on top of the stack or the outermost position and thereby be visible through the opening in the overlaying panelar frame.

A kit for providing modular kitchens, which comprises: a plurality of panels, each one defining two mutually opposite greater faces and four side faces; a plurality of battens, each one defining four side surfaces which are interposed between respective base surfaces; a plurality of coupling assemblies, each one adapted for coupling between any side face of any panel and side surface of any batten, at least in order to provide a plurality of basic modular elements with a box-like shape structure, each one having at least two side panels and one lower panel; a plurality of covering walls; a plurality of sliding guide rails; a plurality of angular supports; a plurality of hinge assemblies.

A locker assembly having a backlit indicia includes a pair of sidewalls and a horizontal top defining a locker enclosure. At least one shelf extends at least partially between the sidewalls and defines a storage space in the locker enclosure. An illuminated panel extending at least partially between the sidewalls includes: an at least partially translucent sheet, a plurality of powered lighting elements disposed under the sheet, and a lighting enclosure cooperating with the panel to enclose the lighting elements.

A wall-mount assembly is provided with an elongate rail with at least one receptacle formed into the rail. At least one fastener includes an expandable base, and a flange extending from a proximal end of the expandable base, wherein the flange is sized to pass through the at least one receptacle, and the at least one fastener cooperates with the rail to retain the flange within the at least one receptacle. A method for installing hardware to a wall installs fasteners to a rail. The rail is aligned to the wall. The rail is pressed to the wall such that the fasteners are inserted into the wall. The fasteners are expanded to install the rail and fasteners to the wall.

The present invention discloses a versatile design system which has a base board, a face board, each board having a surface with at least one integrated securing mechanism. The securing mechanisms are made up an opposing end and a receiving end. Such securing mechanisms has either snap sockets, snap studs or alternate snap together mechanisms. The base board or surface may act as a wallboard wherein a plurality of face board attachments can easily be attached and removed without the use of tools, glue or other permanent bonding method. The present invention allows for a variety of components both decorative and functional with integrated snap studs or snap sockets or alternate snap together mechanisms.
