A folding screen can separate a relaxation area, create privacy in a shared bedroom, define a workspace or organise a spacious room without building work. It can also serve as a decorative feature against a wall or soften the division between living areas.
Before choosing, measure the available space and check the height you need, leaving room to open and close the panels. Consider the degree of screening required: fabric creates a light visual separation, while wood, synthetic rattan and natural fibres make a more substantial statement. Choose a finish that suits the room's style, check stability on uneven floors and clean with a soft cloth according to the care guidance for each material.
