Segmenting space can be one of the trickiest interior design challenges. A massive rebuild is often out of the question, and the question of visual porosity and physical permeability can complicate the issue.
Moreover, these can be made flexible in other ways - by segmenting them, setting them on wheels and other strategies that make them more portable and modular. They can also add a unique, slightly-swaying semi-naturalistic flair to a room interior.
