A modular living space partitioning system uses a variety of wall panel and wall posts structures, all including several units of a basic structural interface component consisting essentially of a post defining a central interconnecting strip which is oriented at a 45 degree angle with the direction of any wall or panel and two lateral flanges having a equal width corresponding to .sqroot.2 of two times the width of the strip. The basic element can be used on the lateral edges of panels as connectors, or combined two, three, or four at a time to create two, three or four-way right angle connecting pillars. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1. A modular partitioning assembly which comprises a plurality of interconnectable structures wherein each of said structures includes at least two identical basic building elements, each of said basic building elements comprising: a length of solid fat strip having a constant width; a first flange projecting at a 45 degree angle from a longitudinal edge of the strip; a second flange projecting parallelly to the first flange from the opposite longitudinal edge of the strip; wherein the width of each said first and second flange is substantially equal to . sqroot. 2 times the width of the strip; and means along said strip for connecting to another basic element belonging to another structure. 2. The assembly of claim 1, wherein said interconnectable structures comprises a two-way right-angle connecting pillar comprising: first and second of said basic elements joined in a right angle configuration wherein the second flange of the first basic element bridges the space between the junction of the strip and second flange of the second basic element and the lateral edge of the first flange of the second basic element, and the junction of the strip and second flange of the first element abuts said lateral edge. 3. The assembly of claim 1, wherein said interconnectable structures comprise a three-way, right-angle connecting pillar comprising: first, second and third of said basic elements joined in a right-angle configuration wherein the second flange of the first basic element bridges the space between the junction of the strip and second flange of the second element and the lateral edge of the first flange of the second element, the junction of the strip and second flange of the first element abuts said lateral edge, and the second flange of the third element bridges the space between the junction of the strip and second flange of the first element and the lateral edge of the first flange of the first element, and the junction of the strip and second flange of the third element abuts the lateral edge of the first element
