Glamorous Modern Geometric Painted Room Divider

Glamorous Modern Geometric Painted Room Divider

Winston Porter

This 70" tall by 70" wide painted room divider mixes the traditional lightweight, portable frame with the impressive modernization of a glitzy gold finish with a fun geometric print pattern on the four 17.3" wide rice fabric panels.

$131.99 $179.99

Designer Advice:

Another great choice for room dividers is a fancy modern frame in a shiny metallic gold finish. An imperfect geometric pattern overlay on the panels adds a casual modern glam that enhances the simple foldable frame. And the delicate white rice paper panels give an authentic look while providing full privacy between the two sides.

Vintage Neutral Eastern Painted Room Divider

Vintage Neutral Eastern Painted Room Divider

World Menagerie

This room divider relies on a neutral color palette to accent the clean lines of the glossy wood trellis frame. Chinese-painted floral motifs accent the white panels surrounded by neutral tan pieces in varying shapes. 

Designer Advice:

This foldable room divider incorporates a rustic natural palette with traditional Chinese elements, like an understated floral pattern applied to each small white panel. While the glossy dark wood frame accents the paleness of the different paper panels and each of the individual oddly-shapen tan pieces that surround the squares of a white background with painted flowers.

Asian Handcrafted Bamboo Painted Room Divider

Asian Handcrafted Bamboo Painted Room Divider

Bungalow Rose

This handwoven foldable bamboo divider has four panels covered in a display of birds, trees, and flowers accented with Chinese characters in an elegant black palette with pink pops of color. And two-way hinges allow for folding in either direction.

$189.99 $259.99

Designer Advice:

Asian-inspired painted dividers can be made of wood and paper or, as this piece demonstrates, bamboo panels. You get a different aesthetic from bamboo than from flat paper. Bamboo panels can add a textured look and feel with authentic Oriental artwork and color palette with a simple nature scene accent. Hinged panels allow for folding and opening - in either direction.

Elegant Minimalistic Retro Painted Divider

Elegant Minimalistic Retro Painted Divider

Bungalow Rose

This free-standing painted room divider has three or four 71" tall by 17" wide panels with a full 69" wide width. The solid wood frame has a charming black finish that complements the black floral motif artwork covering the white rice paper screens.

Designer Advice:

Room divider shades can come with three or four panels attached with hinges allowing easy closing and opening. In some cases, the panels can fold in either direction. A retro black-and-white palette will look great against any color scheme, while the elegant floral motif on the broad white rice panels adds a classy nuance.

Buying Guide

There are a few factors to consider when it comes to determining the right size for a room divider. One of those factors is whether you have a low or high ceiling, and how wide is the space inside the room you intend on dividing? Painted room dividers range in height from 3 to 7 inches or more. They also contain between 3 to 6 panels which ultimately determines the width of the divider. So the wider the area you need to cover, the more panels you will require. Take time to measure both ceiling height and floor space to get the right size of the room divider.

If you intend on getting your room divider to match your existing room decor, then you'll need to prepare it. Ensure that it is dust-free and clean. The area should also be well ventilated as you will be working with paint. So this makes for a great outdoor project.

Next, you should know what color you want to paint your room divider, and it should be a color that complements your existing color palette. So you can choose to paint it all in one color or tape off certain sections and create a multi-colored room divider that exudes fun and funk.

The key to getting a good finish is to spray several light coats of color onto the room divider and allow each coat to dry before spraying on the next one.
