摘要

An item of furniture in the form of a desk for use as a computer workstation has a generally planar work surface having first and second portions (12, 20 ); a storage space (30) beneath the first portion of the work surface for stori ng a monitor (32); and support means (34) for supporting the monitor relative t o the work surface, the support means having attachment means for attachment t o the monitor. The support means (34) is movable between a retracted attitude in which the support means (34) is in the storage space (30) and an extended attitude in which the support means extends above the work surface for supporting the monitor above and spaced from the work surface. The first portion (20) of the work surface is movable between a closed position in whi ch the first portion forms the generally planar work surface with the second portion and prevents movement of the support means (34) from either one of t he retracted and extended attitudes to the other and an open position in which the first portion allows movement of the support means (34) between the retracted and extended attitudes. When the support means is in the extended attitude the attachment means is movable along horizontal and vertical axes to enable the position of the monitor above the work surface to be adjusted.
