Decide what should remain connected
Start with the views and movement you want to preserve. A divider can mark a transition while leaving light and circulation available. The amount of privacy should follow the room’s use.
Consider the fixing and opening logic
A freestanding appearance does not remove the need for safe support. Floor, ceiling and wall conditions, opening elements and cleaning access need technical review before production.
Review the effect of each material
Glass, timber and metal change the balance between visibility and privacy. Compare samples in the intended room and clarify the finish, joints and maintenance expectations.
This guide outlines useful questions for a bespoke brief. Execution remains subject to project measurement, specifications and written approvals.

Frequently asked questions
Does every divider provide acoustic privacy?
No. Visual separation and acoustic performance are different requirements. Any acoustic target needs its own technical specification.
Can the divider be sized from a photograph?
A photograph helps explain the brief; measured site information is required for a final proposal.
Begin with your space
Materials, measurements and execution scope are defined in a project-specific proposal. Preliminary pricing remains non-binding until measurement and specification approval.
