A desk includes a work surface, a casing, a carriage, a stand, and a plurality of actuators. The actuators are operable to selectively adjust a vertical position of the work surface, the stand between at least a stored position and a deployed position, and a lateral position of the carriage. The casing is mounted to the work surface and defines an interior volume sized for receipt of a display. The carriage is mounted to the stand and is configured for supporting the display. A controller is in operative communication with the actuators and is configured for receiving data corresponding to a desk configuration over a wireless network and activating one or more of the actuators to correspond to the desk configuration.
Workspace system and components and method for the use thereof
A workspace system includes different base components, different accessory interfaces and different accessories. Different accessory interfaces may be fixed to different base components, and different accessories may be releasably engaged by different, or the same accessory interfaces. The same accessories may be engaged by different accessory interfaces. The base components and accessories may be reconfigured to define different workspaces. Methods of assembling and reconfiguring the workspaces are also provided.
FURNITURE SYSTEM
A furniture system includes a beam member including a bottom wall and a pair of side walls that cooperate to define a channel configured to route a plurality of wires therethrough, and an electrical power block located at least partially within the channel, wherein a portion of at least one of the walls is movable between a first position where the portion is substantially planar with the at least one of the walls, and a second position where the portion extends into the channel and is not planar with the at least one of the walls, and wherein the electrical power block is supported by the portion.
