There are various solutions for separating the areas of an environment: from movable walls to integrated systems, up to double-sided bookcases and more timeless screens. Ideas capable of revolutionizing an interior thanks to a highly functional design.
Space management is important and a room where each area is well divided can be more functional and beautiful than an interior with the wrong layout. To divide what you have available. making it more suitable and tailored to those who live there, it is possible to resort to alternative solutions to masonry, less invasive and more flexible interventions, which can be modified in the future. These are sliding walls, bookcases, double-sided wardrobes but also simple screens that punctuate the rooms and at the same time add style and personality to the environment.
MOVABLE AND SLIDING WALLS
One of the solutions closest to masonry walls is the system of sliding or mobile walls. In the first case, these are panels that slide to connect two areas or isolate them, in a similar but wider way than the classic sliding door. In the second case, the panels can also perform other movements and, therefore, in addition to “opening and closing” the space they also contribute to reconfiguring it.

COMPLETE INTEGRATED SYSTEMS
The solution which includes an integrated system of double-sided wardrobes and doors which elegantly divide the space and at the same time make its design more significant and elegant is very interesting and complete.

MULTIFUNCTION DOUBLE-SIDED CABINET
Replacing a masonry wall with a double-sided wardrobe is an interesting solution, both for dividing the environment and for providing it with additional storage space on both sides. And if it is true that a wardrobe takes up more space than a partition, it is also true that it is much more usable. This applies both in the sleeping area and in the living area and here, in particular, you can choose a wardrobe that is not full-height to punctuate the space without overwhelming it.

CEILING BOOKCASE FOR THE OPEN SPACE
By clearly dividing an open space you risk distorting it and detracting from its inherent sense of openness. This is why the opportunity to install a ceiling bookcase with open shelves and not full-height shelves is interesting. Functional and partially dividing, it allows you to define the areas of a room without interrupting the flow of light and air.

INDOOR & OUTDOOR SCREEN
Easy to move and pleasing to the eye, the screen is the least invasive and most flexible solution. It is undoubtedly a furnishing element that can be declined in different materials and styles and lends itself to punctuating internal as well as external spaces, where the recurring objective is to preserve the privacy of gardens and terraces.
