Room Dividers Blog

A new room divider has caught my eye this week - it has sort of a Frank Lloyd Wright vibe going on, and reminds me of the inspired stained glass silk scarves that were popular during a certain decade (not to be mentioned here), but this version is more elegant and does not have the cheesy colors.  I love the Greenwich Folding Screen because it is a totally new style of room divider that I have not yet seen.  It breaks free of the Asian inspired themed room screens that we are so used to seeing, whether they are shoji screens or rice paper with flower shadows on them, let’s face it, there are a lot of Asian room dividers out there so it’s nice to see something new.  It’s also different from all of the contemporary folding screens that are so popular these days, the ones with bright colors and modern art painted on both sides.  This room divider makes a statement of its own, but it does so with its architectural details, not with bright colors.  This screen has three panels which is the most versatile size, what most people need for use at home or the office.  The wooden frame features a very dark, black finish, a great contrast to the off white fiber paper panels on the insides.  Additional structural elements are added at the bottom and top using thin rectangular wood frames, giving it that stained glass look minus the color.  I can only imagine how beautiful this room divider would look with a light behind it, casting a soft glow through the fiber paper  - I think the rectangular designs would almost look like a city skyline when used this way!  Have fun with this elegant new room divider by Adesso!
