movable walls

Reconfigurable room boundaries

Movable walls are temporary or semi-permanent partitions that can be repositioned to reconfigure interior spaces.

Unlike permanent walls, they slide, fold, or roll to divide large rooms into smaller areas or open them back up: The conference center uses movable walls to create breakout rooms.

Common in offices, hotels, and convention centers where flexible space matters.
