A common divider between the living room and the hallway is usually a porch divider, or a wine cooler as a divider, which not only holds items, but also looks generous and beautiful. Lastly, beaded curtains can be used as a divider that doesn't interfere with the light in the room, but also softly separates the space between the hallway and the living room.
To make a partition in the living and dining room, you should determine whether you want to make a real partition or a virtual partition, and consider whether you need soundproofing. If soundproofing is needed, it is best to choose a physical partition wall. If it is a solid partition wall, you can use cement board and plasterboard. The partition may block the view of the living room and the small remodeled bedroom. If soundproofing is required, I suggest you choose a cement wall or install a layer of acoustic panels inside the wall.
If there is no soundproofing requirement, it is advisable to create a virtual partition. You can customize a partition cabinet to act as a bedside for the small bedroom, and the entrance to the small bedroom can be disguised as a cabinet door so that it doesn't appear to contradict the entire space. You can also use a wooden fence over the top screen, or use glass or translucent resin as a space divider and hang curtains inside for privacy. Compared to physical partitions, fenced virtual partitions do not affect the ventilation and lighting of the space and are relatively economical. Glass and resin partitions maximize the breathability of the space and give it an airy and stylish look.
Some open kitchens are also connected to the living room, which is an economical and practical design to make a simple and generous bar partition or place a wine cabinet outside the kitchen. The bar or wine cooler is very effective as a partition wall between the living room and the kitchen, or the kitchen and the dining room. Glass is also a common type of partition wall. There are many types of glass, including ordinary glass, frosted glass, stained glass, etc. The permeability and decorative effect is outstanding. The color will change under the action of light, and the price is moderate, so it is widely used in the partition. The partition between the bedroom and bathroom with glass doors can avoid the heavy feeling brought by wooden or iron doors, lighter and more decorative.
