I just rented a desk in an office. They have a LAN connected to the internet, and it’s shared among everyone in the (small) building.
I have a few network devices I want to connect, but I don’t want them to be visible to everyone on the shared LAN.
I’d like to create my own LAN with all my devices (Laptop, NAS, IP phones) connected to it. But I also want to use the internet connection available in the main LAN.
Below is a diagram of what exists (LAN 1) and what I want to add (LAN 2). Will that work? If not, then how do I do it?
Thanks.

Yes, this will certainly work. The router in
LAN 2
will separate the differing network segments, creating a distinctly different LAN.
