ABSTRACT:
A table for use in an office-type environment includes a height-adjustable work surface and an article-supportive surround which extends upwardly from a rear edge of the work surface. The work surface is horizontally enlarged and slopes upwardly away from the front edge thereof to facilitate the storage and organization of documents. Also, the article-supportive surround is formed from three vertically adjacent but horizontally offset shelves which provide additional area for the storage of documents in a readily viewable upright position.
