Claim:
A collapsible structure adapted to be supported on a surface and comprising: a module having: at least two panels, including a first panel, each panel having a foldable frame member having a folded and an unfolded orientation, with a fabric material covering portions of the frame member to form the panel, the fabric material assuming the unfolded orientation of the frame member, each panel further including a first side, a second side and a top side, with the first side of one panel coupled to the second side of an adjacent panel; and an upper panel coupled to the module, the upper panel having a bottom side removably coupled to the top side of the first panel, the upper panel having a foldable frame member having a folded and an unfolded orientation, with a fabric material covering portions of the frame member of the upper panel to form the upper panel when the frame member of the upper panel is in the unfolded orientation, the fabric material of the upper panel assuming the unfolded orientation of the frame member of the upper panel; wherein the first and upper panels are generally vertical and co-planar with each other when the structure is deployed in use; and wherein with the frame member of the first panel is collapsible to the folded orientation by twisting and folding to form a plurality of concentric rings.
