4 Creative Ways to Use Privacy Room Dividers

Here at Legacy Decor, we carry a wide range of home furnishings and accessories, including a wealth of privacy room panels that have nearly infinite uses.

To that end, here are some of the more practical ways to use our privacy room dividers, capitalizing on both their functional and aesthetic properties.

Hide the Clutter

One of the most practical ways to get the most out of a room panel divider is to use it as a partition or space divider.

To that end: do you have any rooms in your home where your belongings are stacked up or placed aside because there’s nowhere else in the home to store them?

Many homes have such “clutter corners,” and while they’re just a fixture of the home to some, others wish there was a way to conceal them.

However, drapes and covers make it even more obvious that you’re trying to conceal something, so that’s hardly an option.

Instead, opt for a privacy room divider that suits the setting of your room and use it to partition off the area of the room that’s being used for temporary storage.

You almost won’t notice the divider is there; in fact, in some cases, room dividers can be used to increase the overall feeling of the size of a space.

Moreover, by using paneled room dividers to keep clutter and other items conveniently out of view, you can close off the available space, making it feel cozier, more intimate, and more structured.

Think about that the next time you think about getting a storage unit: panel dividers are more affordable and more functional!

Create Another “Room”

Open concept floor plans have been all the rage for years now - but, as the pendulum swing of all things popular takes hold, some home and apartment owners are looking for a way to make spaces feel cozier and more neatly arranged, without the need to make costly permanent alterations.

Enter the privacy room divider, the cure for open concept.

With a privacy room divider, you can create rooms within rooms. Need a little extra space for a work or office setup? Need to give the kids a corner where they can set up their gaming rigs? Want to create a little nook with a couch that has a cozier, closer, more intimate feeling?

Privacy room panels can be used to accomplish all of the above and then more - your limit is your imagination.

Additionally, privacy room panels can also be used to “direct” foot traffic. If you want to guide visitors through a room towards a gathering space, a bathroom, or even the kitchen or dining room, room divider panels can be used for that too.

Decorate Your Divider

Folding screens and room dividers can also serve as blank canvases for decorative accents as well.

If you have a folding room divider set up in one of your rooms during the holiday season, don’t let that real estate go to waste! Room dividers offer plenty of room for hanging garlands, lights, or ornaments.

Come to think of it, you can also use a room divider as a structure for string lights throughout the year - they’re perfect for accent lighting.

At other times of the year, room dividers can be used to hang plants and other hanging ornaments, too.

Let the spirit of the setting dictate your creative direction. That’s the point of creativity!

Artistically Apropos: Suit the Setting with Design or Imagery

Finally, don’t forget that, on top of being easy to install, room dividers offer you a distinct opportunity to meet the needs of the setting with a bold design, pattern, color scheme, or just overall aesthetic.

Does your home’s inspiration come from the colonial, classic school of design? Then go with an all-wood room divider or one with a wood frame.

Looking for a minimalist or modern Japanese aesthetic? Opt for one with a bamboo frame and shoji rice paper panels.

Similarly, we offer privacy room dividers that are boldly decorated with floral accents, internationally-inspired motifs, or made with brightly decorated, reversible fabrics.

Many of our room dividers and curtains feature unique designs which are perfect for making a statement, regardless of the nature of your interior design - you just need to match the divider to the setting.
