Woven wire mesh is a go-to material for various do-it-yourself home projects. One notable application is DIY room dividers, which are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing.
Ahead, insight into the purpose of room dividers, along with tips and ideas for making your own.
Why Do We Need Room Dividers?
Room dividers serve a few purposes. They can help break up a larger room into smaller zones, like a great room with a dining area, a bonus room with a work-from-home station, or a studio apartment with a designated living room and sleeping area.
A room divider can add privacy, whether the view is partially or fully obstructed. It can also create a sense of balance while enhancing spatial flow. Lastly, these decorative partitions can add visual appeal to indoor spaces.
DIY Room Divider Ideas Using Decorative Wire Mesh
Did you know you can fasten your own room dividers with wire mesh screens? There are many routes you can take with this, including a few thoughtful ideas outlined below.
Defined Desk Area
If a shared space doubles as a home office or homework station, you can use wire mesh panels to define the desk area. The additional partial wall will make the area feel more intentional while helping minimize distractions. Because decorative wire mesh comes in a variety of materials, designs, and weaves, the partition can be customized to suit your aesthetic.
Great Room or Studio Apartment Partition
Great rooms and studio apartments comprise multiple spaces within an open floor plan. To break things up and define each area, consider using a wire mesh screen that can be moved around or opened and closed as needed.
Indoor Wire Mesh Window With Shelving
Semi-transparent indoor windows with shelving were a staple of mid-century home design. Lean into this retro trend by installing a permanent wire mesh room divider with built-in shelves for displaying seasonal décor and tchotchkes.
Indoor Garden Room Divider
Another option is to make a wire mesh room divider that doubles as an indoor vertical garden. You can attach small planters and pots or place a viney plant on the floor and watch it climb the metal grid over time.
Semi-Private Divider Wall
Semi-private divider walls work well in offices with open floor plans, great rooms, and large bonus rooms that serve as multi-use spaces. Woven metal mesh is an excellent choice, as it partially obstructs the view while making each zone feel distinct but still part of a whole.
Sectioned-Off Primary Suite
Open-concept primary suites are becoming more popular in homes. If you like the idea but still want the bathtub and vanity to feel somewhat separate, consider sectioning off the bathroom area with wire mesh panels.
