A connector arrangement for a wall panel system is provided which includes connector blocks that join serially-adjacent wall panel frames together in proper alignment with each other. These corner blocks also are matable with a system of spacer strips, light block strips, single-side trim covers and multi-side trim covers which enclose the connector blocks and connector structure. A corner spline arrangement is also provided between adjacent trim covers which spline extends vertically and defines a closed corner, right-angled corner between the interconnected trim covers.

What is claimed is: 1. A wall panel system comprising:a plurality of upright space-dividing wall panels each having an upright inner rigid frame having opposite exposed side faces and opposite frame ends and having at least one side cover attached to and covering each said exposed side face of said frame for enclosing said frame and defining planar panel faces of said wall panel, said wall panels further having terminal end faces at said opposite frame ends wherein each of said end faces defines a respective frame end face width extending between said opposite exposed side faces;at least one corner block having a plurality of block sides which are each adapted to connect one of said frames thereto and each define a sideward-facing block side face having a block face width, said plurality of block sides permitting the interconnection of adjacent said frame ends of at least two of said panel frames together in serially-adjacent relation to define a multi-way connection wherein said panel frames are mountable on opposite said block sides in an inline configuration and mountable on adjacent said block sides in an angled configuration, any unused block sides of said block sides which remain unused defining a space between the adjacent panel faces of said panels;at least one trim cover adapted to mount to said corner block on any of said unused block sides which are unused after the connection of said plurality of said frames, said trim cover having an outer trim face;a spacer arrangement of removable spacers being disposed intermediately between said block side face of each said block side and said end face of a said frame connected thereto, said spacers having opposite first and second side sections which respectively engage said corner block and said frame end so as to create a space between said end face of said frame end and said block side face of said corner block and position said end face in the plane of the panel face of any said panel disposed adjacent thereto in any said angled configuration, wherein said block side face and said end face are spaced from each other across the entirety of said respective frame end face width and said block face width by said space; andsaid spacers being removed from said corner block on any of said unused block sides to permit the connection of said trim cover directly against said block side face of said unused block side with said outer trim face being substantially coplanar with any of the panel faces disposed adjacent thereto.
