Disclosed is a novel furnishing assembly. The assembly is comprised of multiple components, which are nestable or stackable in relation to one another. The components may be of different sizes and may mimic each other in structure. Each component is comprised of a top panel, two opposing legs, and one or more handles. A smaller component can be stacked on a larger component to form a stand up desk or lectern or the like. Each component can be used for various purposes, including as a stool, desk, or chair. Each leg includes two feet, which can be covered with glides. Each component can be secured to a substructure or include a crossmember for added stability. The components can include other components for improved functionality, including a magnet, a door, a drawer, a keyboard tray, or a storage box.
