Description

The present invention relates to furniture.

There is a known technique in which a booth is surrounded by a partition wall to form a polygonal shape in plan view, and a desk, chair, etc. are placed inside the booth to create a work space for one person (for example, Patent Document 1). )

On the other hand, there is a need to make such booths smaller and more convenient, thereby creating an environment in which those working inside the booth can more easily concentrate.

Here, if the booth is made smaller and has a simpler shape, it tends to become a narrow polygon or an oval shape. When an external force is applied in the short side direction of such a booth, the partition walls forming the booth tend to collapse. Further, when a large number of irregularly shaped polygonal booths are arranged, space is likely to be wasted.
