## Background
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 61/950,629, filed on Mar. 10, 2014, entitled “Mark Watts—Table —Att,” the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.


BACKGROUND
In many urban and suburban areas, living and working space is a premium. Limited floor space in apartments, homes, shared work spaces, and other living spaces can make it difficult to properly furnish a space for one or more desired purposes. Trade-offs are often required between considerations such as necessary open space, for example due to fire codes, building codes, and/or personal preference, and providing adequate fixtures for enabling use of the space, such as, for example, tables or desks to allow comfortable working, entertaining, and living.
Even in environments having limited floor space, wall space is generally available. Wall space can be utilized for decorating an environment, such as, for example, by hanging artwork or other hangings. The selected artwork can reflect the tastes of the owners, the function of the space, and/or may be based on one or more additional aesthetic or functional considerations. It would be desirable to utilize the available wall space in limited floor space environments to serve dual functional and artistic purposes.

The removable cross-member 8a is separated from the first and second longitudinal members 6a, 6b. Once the removable cross-member 8a is removed, the artwork 10 may be removed from the frame 4 and replaced with an second piece. In some embodiments, a hard backing 28 remains in the frame 4 after the artwork 10 is removed. In some embodiments, the backing 28 is removable. The removable cross-member 8a may be coupled to the longitudinal members 6a, 6b by one or more projections that form a friction coupling within an internal channel defined by the longitudinal members 6a, 6b. In some embodiments, one or more fasteners may be used to couple the removable cross-member 8a to the longitudinal members 6a, 6b. The one or more fasteners may comprise any suitable fastener, such as, for example, a screw, bolt, detent pins, and/or any other removable fastener.
In some embodiments, the removable artwork 10 and/or the removable backing 28 are disposed within longitudinal slots defined by the inner surface of the frame 4. For example, one embodiment, the longitudinal members 6a, 6b and the cross-members 8a, 8b define longitudinal slots formed therein. The longitudinal slots are sized and configured to receive the artwork 10, the protective cover 12, and/or the backing 28. In some embodiments, the longitudinal slots are sized and configured to receive multiple pieces of artwork 10, to provide for simple interchanging of artwork 10. For example, in one embodiment, two or more pieces of artwork 10, such as, for example, art pieces, photos, game table art, game boards, and/or any other suitable artwork are stored in the frame 4. The removable cross-member 8a can be removed from the frame 4 and the pieces of artwork 10 stored within the frame can be rearranged such that a new piece of artwork 10 is displayed by the frame 4. For example, in some embodiments, up to five or more art pieces, photos, game tables, game boards, etc., are stored in the frame 4.
In operation, the convertible art table 2 is configured to be stored and displayed on a wall as an art piece (see FIG. 1). The convertible art table 2 can be removed from the wall and converted into a table (see FIG. 2) as needed. For example, in small apartments, dorm rooms, and/or other living areas with limited space, the convertible art table 2 can be displayed on the wall as artwork when not in use, saving floor space. When a table is required, for example, as a working space, for entertaining, as a play area for children, etc., the convertible art table 2 is removed from the wall, converted into a table, and can be used as a table for any duration. The convertible art table 2 can be converted back into the collapsed position and placed back onto a wall when no longer needed.
In some embodiments, at least one of the longitudinal members 6a, 6b and/or the cross-members 8a, 8b of the frame 4 define a wall hanging feature 30. The wall hanging feature 30 may comprise any suitable wall hanging device. For example, in the illustrated embodiment, the wall hanging feature 30 comprises a hole formed in the first longitudinal member 6a. A fastener, such as, for example, a screw, is coupled to a wall.
