ABSTRACT:
A work space management system for dividing a space into separate work areas comprising a wall system having a rigid framework formed of rigid rectangular frames rigidly joined together at the edges thereof to form at least one work area, wire management elements secured to the frames for communication and power wiring and a plurality of selectively relocatable modular tiles removably hanging on the frames. Some of the wire management elements are secured to the bottom or baseline of the frames and some of the wire management elements are removably secured to a waistline or midportion of at least some of the frames. The frames can extend to a waist height, a seated height, to a standing or full floor to ceiling height in a modular stepped fashion. Decorative and functional modular tiles are sized to fit on the frames to substantially cover the frames, and are independently and removably mounted thereto. The tiles are of equal height and of variable modular width to cover the frames. Further, the tiles are easily mounted to and removed from the frames so that the tiles are relocatable and interchangeable with one another within the same frame and among the different frames for ease of customizing work stations within the system. The work space management system provides an architectural wall partition system with flexibility for interchangeable tile panels for different decorative effects and various functional features. The tiles can be painted, fabric, or vinyl covered, or can comprise acoustical tiles, window tiles, work-in-process rail tiles, lighting tiles, tackable tiles, marker tiles, data display tiles, display tiles, shelf tiles, open pass-through tiles, wire management tiles, mail tiles, storage tiles, heater tiles, and cooling and air circulation tiles.
