ABSTRACT:
A concealed desk comprises a desktop or worksurface, with supporting side panels and a kneehole opening and storage compartments under the desktop. The front of the desk is enclosable by folding doors mounted on front side edges of the desk side panels. When the doors are opened, the doors preferably fold against the side panels of the desk and do not obstruct either the appearance or the use of the desk. The door facades are those of conventional doors and conceal the presence of a kneehole opening or storage compartments in the desk opening inside the doors. The desktop surface of the desk is concealed by an upper storage unit that is mounted on the desktop or that comprises an extension of the desk, above the desktop or worksurface. Doors may also enclose the top portion of the desk unit in the same manner as the doors on the lower portion, giving the furniture the appearance of a cabinet or a secretary. Full length doors may enclose both the upper and lower portions of the desk to give the furniture the appearance of an armoire.
