4. A Room Divided
A room is much more than four walls. Arguably, six with a ceiling and floor in the mix. These are especially useful when a divider is needed. The angled band of yellow in the kids room design above, for example, gives the white box an infinity type of dynamism, instantly heightening and elongating.
For studios or large rooms that would like definition of one area from another, items like bookshelves, screens, and hanging curtains offer a stylish divider solution.
