According to the present invention, when leaving or returning home,
An auxiliary table can be stored in a space below the tabletop of the desk, and when in use, the auxiliary table can be pulled out in an L-shape with respect to the desk, or can be completely separated from the desk to allow space between workers. It can be used by interposing it and can be used for multiple purposes. At this time, if the concave portion of the auxiliary table is used continuously with the concave portion of the top plate of the desk, the working space of the worker is not extremely narrowed.

[0023] Further, since each of the office workers is stuck in the concave portion of the top plate and heads to the desk, it is possible to alienate communication mainly by team work without being bothered by the line of sight or work of the next office worker. Instead, I can concentrate and concentrate on my work.

Further, since the employee fits into the concave portion of the top plate and heads for the desk, a wide space for a meeting or passage is formed between the two desk groups. The office worker
You can freely come and go in this space, and you can use a desk material, display, white board, etc. to discuss with many office workers.

When the whole team or a large number of people hold a discussion, a desired number of auxiliary tables can be pulled out to the meeting space and used as an arbitrary desired arrangement. At this time, debates other than the team can also participate. Furthermore, those who are members of the team but do not participate in the discussion can learn the content of the discussion while working at their desks. The discusser can fit into the concave portion of the front edge of the auxiliary table and, in combination with the concave portion of the front edge of the opposite table, can save space in the office space.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, a plurality of desks, each having a substantially rectangular plane shape and a corrugated front edge of the top plate, are arranged side by side so that the corrugation of the front edge is continuous. By constructing a group of desks and arranging auxiliary tables each having a substantially triangular planar shape on each of the desks, adjacent desks are integrally connected to each other to reduce the space between the two desks.
There is no discomfort when it is used by a person, and the auxiliary table can be used by utilizing its triangular shape so that only the minimum necessary area can be projected from under the desk, which is extremely advantageous in saving space.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, two desk groups, each having the same number of desks, are arranged so that the worker is back-to-back, leaving a passage space between them, and surrounding the two desk groups. By partitioning with the passage entrance that is an extension of the passage space left, the office and discussion space for one team can be isolated in the office space to save space.

When a shelf for storing documents is built above each desk as in the invention described in claim 4, it is not necessary to dispose the bookshelves independently, which contributes to space saving, and moreover, the employee can work. If it is located in the concave portion of the desk, there is an advantage that books and the like can be easily put in and taken out from the shelf.
