room dividers
Partition furniture pieces
Room dividers are freestanding screens or partitions used to separate spaces within a larger room.
They create visual privacy or distinct areas without permanent walls: We set up room dividers to give each employee a workspace.
Common types include folding screens, bookcases, curtains, and decorative panels.
