Many think using screens or a type of divider in a small space will make the area feel claustrophobic, however, in reality, the space seems warmer and more cohesive. <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is always difficult to review a magazine photograph and make evaluations based only on that one photograph, however, since that is what we must work with we will begin there. Let\u2019s evaluate as many elements of the photograph as we can.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It seems as if this is an architecturally standard style of condominium in any of our large cities.\u00a0 At the ceiling area behind the screen, you will see a column which is part of the building itself. It seems this and perhaps other unattractive building elements want to be hidden by the owner. A screen is the perfect solution. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fabric on the screen divider is a stripe and when cut and sewn creates a pattern resembling a diamond look. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on the design of the fireplace area, the space, is transitional\/traditional.\u00a0 The paint color on the mantle and legs might have been a warmer beige as found in the background of the screen fabric. \u00a0The fireplace tile surround might have been more interesting with a small ethnic strip of tile inserted. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It seems this room is used as a game room with the room&#8217;s colors chosen from the felt on the pool table. \u00a0But what if the space was used as a gathering area for friends? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The textural\/ethnic chairs are a perfect addition to the space. \u00a0And why not chose a smaller\/more ethnic coffee \u2026one not quite so imposing\/large to house drinks, and small mementos of travels or memories. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The floor lamp and small terra cotta ceramic table by the larger chair are wonderful additions and utilize the concept of layering. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wallcovering is becoming very popular and these walls use a textured terra cotta selection on the walls again adding depth and texture. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps we would change out the mirror above the mantle for a more ethnic\/textural design. \u00a0This could be a piece of sentimental value taking a prominent place above the mantle. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than false flames in the firebox area, how about just a wonderful gathering of firewood placed in the firebox. \u00a0This adds reality and texture. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the left side, if you look closely, is another fabric pattern. \u00a0\u00a0This is lovely and could be brought more vividly into the main space. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember, love is in the details and create your space based upon your vision and dreams\u2026not those of others. \u00a0\u00a0We send love. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class='sfsi_Sicons' style='width: 100%; display: inline-block; vertical-align: middle; text-align:left'><div style='margin:0px 8px 0px 0px; line-height: 24px'><span>Please follow and like us:<\/span><\/div><div class='sfsi_socialwpr'><div class='sf_subscrbe' style='text-align:left;vertical-align: middle;float:left;width:64px'><a href=\"http:\/\/www.specificfeeds.com\/widgets\/emailSubscribeEncFeed\/WUxYS1lmcHRyMDJ1Ty82ekJnVWVzREIvcE1HSU1kYTVUM2FpbUtQdXZIcno5bEs3bzBkdEJvWm13VUFsQnJJUUhhcDVwMHNwb2ZQQk1YVHhXVkw0dE9DVXloUCs3TmJYSkhHTjUxdzQ0MVh2b0lQczQwd3o5K3FKMGo5VC9NL0x8eFpZTk5sMGsyWk15RE1wci9hejFRZFN0MmVJMkxYaU5JNDJWN2l0bEJiTT0=\/OA==\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pillowgalleria.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/ultimate-social-media-icons\/images\/follow_subscribe.png\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class='sf_fb' style='text-align:left;vertical-align: middle;width:98px'><div class=\"fb-like\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pillowgalleria.com\/blog\/room-dividers\/\" width=\"180\" send=\"false\" showfaces=\"false\"  action=\"like\" data-share=\"true\"data-layout=\"button\" ><\/div><\/div><div class='sf_twiter' style='text-align:left;float:left;vertical-align: middle;width:auto'><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" data-count=\"none\" class=\"sr-twitter-button twitter-share-button\" lang=\"en\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.pillowgalleria.com\/blog\/room-dividers\/\" data-text=\"Room Dividers\" ><\/a><\/div><div class='sf_pinit' style='text-align:left;vertical-align: middle;float:left;line-height: 20px;width:47px'><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=&media=&description=\" data-pin-do=\"buttonPin\" data-pin-save=\"true\"data-pin-count=\"none\"><\/a><\/div><div class='sf_google' style='text-align:left;vertical-align: middle;float:left;max-width:62px;min-width:35px;'><div class=\"g-plusone\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.pillowgalleria.com\/blog\/room-dividers\/\" data-size=\"large\" data-annotation=\"none\" ><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The use of screens as room dividers are a wonderful, creative and aesthetic way of dividing a space into smaller useable areas or covering unwanted\/unattractive architectural elements in a home or apartment unit.
