Fixed partition - additional wall
Stationary partitions include structures made of brick, stone, drywall, foam concrete, wood and glass blocks. These are partitions that carry out not only zoning functions, but also do an excellent job of soundproofing segments of space. They have good moisture resistant properties, are strong and durable. On such partitions you can hang shelves, a TV and various wall decor.
The so-called screen partitions are supports to which the main material is attached by the type of screen. Depending on the complexity of the design itself and the selected material of the supports and screens, such partitions can be installed both with the help of specialists, or independently. The constructions are strong enough, but not enough to fasten shelves or boxes to them. The plus is that despite the obvious zoning, the lighting from one room to another is not completely isolated.
Partition racks are incredibly popular because of their functionality. Open or combined shelves can be placed both from the floor itself and at a certain distance from it - depending on the location of the furniture in the functional area. It is possible to execute a rack bilateral or deaf from one of the parties. Obviously, such a design must be sufficiently strong and durable.
One of the options for a stationary partition is a fireplace structure. The duct for the focus is located in the cavity of the septum, for this it must have sufficient internal space. The advantage of such a fireplace, located inside a wide partition, is the ability to observe the fire from various points of the room. But there are drawbacks to such designs. If for the construction of a glass or wooden interior partition you do not need permission of the relevant services, then installing a fireplace is not so simple, especially with dwellings of apartment buildings.
Some partitions are a whole complex, consisting of storage systems, work surfaces and integrated into the design space of household appliances. For example, here is a furniture ensemble located between the kitchen and dining areas
Scope of stationary partitions
At stationary partitions there are a lot of options for application in the framework of both small-sized apartments and spacious private houses. For example, the use of partitions to separate the space of a bedroom and a bathroom is a fairly often used design technique. Such a partition allows you to install sinks with mirrors from the bathroom side (by hiding communications in the cavity of the additional wall), and from the bedroom side you can hang a TV or a picture, open shelves for books or any small things.
A similar variant of the combined partition allows you to create a whole complex of storage systems, placing a video zone on one side and a desk on the other. Such a design will be appropriate in the living room, within which the cabinet is located.
The use of stationary partitions in a large living room space allows you to separate the area of the dining room or library. As a result, you can achieve the desired privacy for certain functional segments of the home.
The same goes for separating the dining room from the living room. Glass partitions do not interfere with the penetration of light, but create a secluded atmosphere.
Decorative "lace" partitions separating the living room from the dining room do not interfere with the penetration of natural light, add uniqueness to the interior, but at the same time fulfill their main function - they zonize the space.
Similar partitions can also be used as zoning elements of spacious utility rooms. In this case, you need to make sure that the material has a sufficiently high moisture resistant qualities.
In a one-room studio apartment it is very difficult to do without the use of partitions. For zoning a segment with a berth, a partition made of light wood is perfect, given that it is this material that is actively involved in the execution of part of the furniture and even the decoration of the room.
Some types of stationary partitions are created not so much for the purpose of zoning, but as holders. Most often, such designs are used to secure the TV and other video and audio equipment.
Sliding and swivel partitions - a functional element of the interior
From the name itself, it is clear that such interior partitions act as walls and doors at the same time. Whether the partition is opened by the type of compartment doors or folded up like a book - the main functions of the zoning of the room are performed by such structures in the first place.
With the help of glass sliding partitions in the form of sliding doors, it is possible to partition off a functional segment placed in a room with another practical guide, for example, to fence off a bedroom located in the living room. The same thing can be done with an office located in the common room or dressing room in the bedroom. Such partitions have sufficiently high sound insulation properties, are strong and durable. But mounting such structures on your own will be very difficult.
Sliding partitions-doors like wooden horizontal blinds fit perfectly into the modern interior, especially if the color of the wood is repeated in other elements of the design of the room.
A rotary structure made of fiberboard can perform several functions at once - to serve as a holder for video equipment, used as a storage system in the living room area, and in the bedroom segment you can hang a mirror or a picture on such a partition, not to mention that the partition can be rotated depending on situation.
Rotary partitions-blinds in a vertical modification allow you to create different levels of closure of the functional area within a spacious room, depending on the angle of rotation of the structural elements. As a rule, such partitions are equipped with an electric drive and equipped with a control panel.
Partition materials
Interior partitions, depending on the design of the design itself and the interior of the room, the functional background and installation location, can be made of various materials:
- tree,
- glass,
- acrylic raw materials
- drywall
- polycarbonate
- brick,
- foam concrete blocks,
- combined - metal or metal-plastic frame with inserts of glass, bamboo, textile, reed paper.
Most often, you can meet with the use of drywall to create a perfectly flat and smooth surface of the interior partition. Such designs are easy to install, which can be done independently and take up little space. The only drawback of drywall partitions is not enough strength for fastening shelves, cabinets and other devices.
Drywall partitions can even be curved. Finishing the obtained smooth surfaces is carried out based on the stylistic, color and texture of the room.
Wooden partitions bring natural warmth and uniqueness to the interior. For many styles of space design, wooden structures will not only be relevant, but will also become the highlight of the design.
Wooden partitions can be left in natural color, and can be covered with paint. One of the most popular colors is white. White lace designs are light and airy, but only outwardly. In fact, such partitions can easily support the weight of open shelves or even consoles that act as a desk, stand or dressing table (depending on the functional purpose of the room).
Acrylic surfaces - a variation of decorative glass, are also often found in recent design projects. Eco-friendly, durable, durable, but lightweight acrylic constructions can become a practical decoration of modern homes. Surfaces are available in transparent, tinted versions; there are models with stained-glass windows.
To create glass partitions, tempered glass is used in a special way, with increased properties of strength and durability. Of course, such designs will be expensive, and for their installation it will be necessary to turn to specialists.
Corrugated frosted glass allows light to penetrate, but it almost completely hides what is happening behind the partition. To separate the bathroom area located in the bedroom, such a design will be a practical and functional design solution.
Similar variants of glass partitions, but only in the sliding version, can be used to separate the kitchen from the dining room or living room.
Polycarbonate partitions are easy to clean, light and durable. With such structures, you do not need to worry about the possibility of splitting (relevant for homes with small children). Theoretically, such partitions can be installed independently, but it is very necessary to measure the dimensions so that the movement of the partition along the rail holders is unhindered and the design lasts a long time.
Combined septa are no less common. The base is made of drywall (to which you can give almost any shape, even a wave-like) with inserts from other materials - wood, polycarbonate, lightweight glass or even weaving from ropes, twine.
Partitions on a steel frame and with wooden elements arranged in a chaotic manner are not so much zoning as decorative design, which brings uniqueness, originality and creativity to the interior.
The original design solutions for the execution of partitions include the option of using bamboo coated with special varnishes and antiseptics for long-term operation in a utilitarian room with high humidity. For example, in a bathroom with such a partition, you can separate the zone with the toilet from the segment of water procedures.
Another way to bring originality to the interior of the room is to use a hanging composition made up of many steel chains. Such designs will organically look in rooms decorated in a modern style, loft or hi-tech.
From the point of view of ease of installation, the most practical option for zoning the functional segments of the room is ordinary curtains. For a modern interior, dense curtains on lurexes inserted into metal bars will become an organic addition.

- If you choose screens or textile partitions, do not forget that the patterns on them, if any, should be in perfect harmony with the interior. This rule applies to any partitions, which should be a complement to the design of the room, and not its contradiction.
- If the room is very small, it is better not to use mirrors. As an alternative, experts recommend paying attention to transparent or frosted glass.
- It is not recommended to do full zoning with the help of large cabinets; here it is best to choose oversized racks and shelves.

For more tips on what is better to make partitions in the apartment, see the next video.
Isolated rooms
with the help of partitions A partition made of drywall for zoning a room has a radical function, it can completely replace a brick wall if you are not very worried about sound insulation. Such a partition can be installed on a metal frame, glued with wallpaper, painted, hang a picture. It is worth noting that, if necessary, removing such a wall is quite easy. For a permanent wall, it is better to use various blocks, bricks, which are laid on the mortar, but in this case already complete rooms are obtained.
When there is no possibility or desire to do something solid, portable constructions will come to the rescue. They can consist of several sections fastened together. They are easy to carry, move and disassemble. Sliding doors, partitions successfully separate the kitchen or bar from the living room, the bedroom from the office or the lounge, the dining room from the living room.
Furniture
Having arranged the furniture in a certain way, the room is perceived differently. Putting a sofa and a table at the side of the entrance or opposite the fireplace, TV, creates a cozy atmosphere of relaxation. Division of a room into zones is possible with the help of consoles, bar counters, chests of drawers. A sofa and a table set behind it, well separated places for rest and work. This option is convenient and does not require cash costs, the permutation can be done at any time.
Screen
An excellent option is a screen, which divides the room into zones. It is not very difficult to make it yourself, you will need:
We connect the rails to each other in the form of frames, we pull the material on them, fixing them with small studs, we get panels, we fasten them with the help of corners. The screen can be done with and without legs. The fabric is selected taking into account the style of the room, linen, silk, cotton with various colors and patterns are suitable. Such a partition will be enough to separate the chair and floor lamp, getting a place for relaxation, reading books. The other part of the room will look whole. If necessary, the screen is removed, transferred to another place, it is mobile.
Curtains
Curtains for dividing a room into zones have the same function. Dividing with the help of curtains saves space, creates a romantic atmosphere. The idea can be implemented on their own and for little money. To mount the curtains you will need a cornice installed at the zoning site. With their help, the room is shared in whole or in part, with a hint that there is a different zone.
In the living room with the help of a canopy, the bed is separated, creating the effect of fabulousness. A workspace is created in any room, options can be temporary and permanent, there are many of them. Changing the curtains, the look is updated quickly and easily. A double curtain made of material of different colors on each side indicates, for example, the bedroom in more delicate shades and the living room in bright color.
In addition to traditional curtains are used:
With their help, functional zoning is carried out without architectural elements.
Other separation options
In addition to the above, there are other types of partitions for zoning the space in the room. Using the color of decorative plaster or painting, you can highlight the functional area. Using wallpapers of various shades and textures, you can clearly distinguish between space. Light or dark shades emphasize. In the kitchen-dining room, a bright wall near the dining area will add coziness and warmth. A wall with drawings in the nursery will indicate the play area.
Is there a niche in the room? We put a table there and with the help of the correct color of wallpaper we get an office. Light plays a huge role in zoning. Spotlights, floor lamps, artificial and natural lighting avoids global redevelopment. You can combine the whole space with one chandelier, and put a accent with the directional light, literally turn a certain place on or off, divide the room into two zones.
In a modern interior, LED strips effectively delimit space. Safety and reliability allows use in hard-to-reach places. Mirrors, backlit paintings put emphasis, attract attention. A podium, especially with a backlight, is an excellent zoning tool, the main thing is to correctly correlate its dimensions with the proportions of the room.
Floor coverings, carpets clearly delineate the space, but in this case there will be no sense of privacy. With proper zoning, you can implement the idea of placing several rooms in one.
