A room divider creates an intimate space and warm ambiance. Open plan areas appear less cold and cavernous with a room divider shelf. At the workplace, room divider shelves create private work spaces, where several people share a space, which is conducive for concentration and a more pleasant work environment. Unlike a folding screen or other piece of furniture used to separate spaces, a room divider shelf offers additional storage space and therefore plenty of functionality. It really doesn’t matter if the room divider shelf is used as a visual division between areas, e.g. separating a reading corner from the rest of the living room, or if you want to create a completely separate space, e.g. as a dressing room for more privacy in the bedroom. There is virtually no end to the possibilities and functions of a room divider shelf. Discover our many room divider ideas in our online shop.

White room dividers or room dividers in bright natural colours are easily integrated in the overall room concept. Very high room dividers in particular could block daylight and darken the room, but a white shelf will counteract that effect.

POPULAR COLOURS

Most room designs allow integration of room dividers in white or light wood. Please note that tall or dark room dividers may darken the space by blocking or absorbing light. A white room divider and open compartments let more light into the room, or reflect light, and can therefore counteract this effect. Browse our offers and let yourself be inspired with ideas about how to visually enhance your living room, bedroom, or home office with an attractive divider as a privacy screen.
White room divider
A shelf as a room divider has many advantages over other types of room dividers like a folding screen, as it creates extra storage space. It is particularly practical if your room doesn't have much wall space for a shelf. In other words: a great idea for smaller rooms. A free standing shelf is a great alternative to the traditional wall shelf.
Stylish furniture
If you are looking for a unique solution for your room, then a prefabricated shelf just won't do. What you want is a modular shelving system with flexible elements and multiple colours. You could even configure a sideboard as your room divider. A room divider sideboard can be designed to suit your exact needs with shelves of various heights and widths. Plus you can add to this room divider whenever you feel it's time for a change.
