 Opus Incertum bookcase We love a good bookshelf design and this one is certainly eye-catching!
Designed by Sean Yoo for Casamania, the Opus Incertum is made from recyclable expanded polypropylene. There are numerous honeycomb shaped segments which work as shelves, where you can store books, CDs, DVDs or other items.
One piece on its own works well as a bookcase or display cabinet, but you can also use several pieces to create a larger display system for a home or office. Several bookcases joined together on the wall to form a larger display unit look really effective.
In addition, it’s got the creativity and charm to double up as a room divider or screen, with the shelves used for their storage capacities or kept open to let light shine through.
The Opus Incertum bookcase is in stock at Made in Design and is available in black, white or gold. How would you use it?

 One of a kind screen Isn’t this Smarty room divider screen bursting with colour?
It’s one off, handmade design by Anna Lockwood of Lockwood Design and is made from upholstered panels of wool felt.
The screen is given a funky look by not only the vibrant colours – red, purple, pink and orange – but also by the fact that the panels are two different alternating heights. The panels are finished off with distinctive contrasting buttons.
If you’d like to become the owner of this unique designer screen, then contact Lockwood Design for more details about purchasing it.

 Modern room divider Room dividers do as their name suggests – they help divide space within a room.
In a large lounge-diner, for example, a room divider can be used to separate the space into two functional areas, so that your living and lounging area is distinctive to your dining zone.
Whilst you may think of room dividers as being big, bulky pieces of furniture, that shut off sections of a room and make the space darker in doing so, that’s certainly not always the case, as this modern room divider from Bo Concept demonstrates.
It serves the practical purposes of dividing space, but does so in a way that makes the divider a feature in its own right. There’s shelving space provided so that you can display your favourite home accessories or ornaments, but plenty of open space and light, so that the two areas of the room still blend into one, even though the separate areas are defined.
In fact, this divider can be customised to your own requirements – panels can be added to the bottom shelf, so that you’ve got space to hide clutter within it, as well as retaining some open shelves for other items.
The Amari room divider is made from black stained oak veneer and can be purchased from Bo Concept.

 Wall divider with storage Room dividers are a great way of making a large space more functional and dividing space up into different uses. Whilst many room dividers and screens do have a decorative element included in their design, this modern B&B Italia room divider adds another dimension – storage.
Designed by Carsten Gerhards and Andreas Glucker in 2002, for B&B Italia, the soft wall room divider is made from felt, with a metal frame on the base.
The room divider has a sculptural feel to it and there are various different sizes of slots all over the piece, where photographs, pictures, postcards, magazines or other bits and pieces can be slotted in.
The B&B Italia soft wall room divider would look as much at home in a bedroom as it would in an office. It’s available in two sizes and can be purchased from Mac & Mac Interiors.

 Divide your room We’ve written before about our love for room dividers and screens - they’re great for creating a division in open plan rooms, or for hiding your clutter behind.
This Risor room divider is new in at Ikea and is made from solid wood, with polypropylene plastic. Designed by Julia Treutiger, we particularly like the fact that the plastic inserts will still allow light to come through, as some dividers are big, heavy and can make a room feel darker when they’re in use.
The divider screen folds down when it’s not in use, which is great for all you space saving fiends.
For more details, head over to Ikea, where the Risor room divider is available for the fantastic price of £79.

Screens or room dividers are great for using in rooms of your home where you want to screen off or hide certain parts of a room, such as cluttered corners, or divide your space into particular areas, such as splitting your living area into a relaxation zone and a home office.
Screens come in a variety of decorative designs and sizes and can be works of art in their own right. Here are three of our favourites.
1. Landscape photo screen
 Room with a view This handmade personalised screen divider is made to your own design and uses high quality digital landscape images.
You can choose the image you want and it’s printed onto the hardwearing canvas screen, giving you effective wall art, as well as a practical room divider. If you’d like an inspirational view, then images of the countryside or sea work really well.
The screen is available with between two or four panels and costs from £249 from Bags of Love.
2. Oriental hand carved decorative screen
 Black oriental screen This striking black oriental screen is made from wood and has three panels. The traditional cherry blossom tree design, with branches going across each of the three panels, is hand carved
It’s a sophisticated piece, a good size for room dividing and screening purposes and the colours would work well in a contemporary home.
The oriental screen is available from Graham and Green for £775.
3. Wave curved screen divider
 Wave room divider For a change from the usual rectangular screens, this contemporary Scandinavian screen divider is curved into a wave-like design.
It’s made from nine layers of plywood and is available in cherry, maple or oak veneer finish.
The wave screen can be ordered from i-Modish for £349.

 Mandarin fretwork screen
We love screens (and hiding untidy areas of a room) and were pleased to find this lovely Chinese fretwork panel screen.
Made in China of 100% solid elm wood and finished off with a black laquer, the four panel screen features Mandarin fretwork in the top of each panel, and solid wood in the bottom half. The screen is sold as a four panel screen, but there is the option to have additional panels added in if you’d like.
The Mandarin four panel screen, or room divider, is available from Orchid Furniture for £980.

 Matt Gagnon hardwood screen
Open plan living is great in many ways, but sometimes there are moments when it’s good to be able to hide certain areas (clutter, perhaps?) or divide the space up into smaller segments.
That’s where the benefits of portable screen dividers come in, as they can be easily moved around to hide corners you don’t want to have on view all the time and create a new look in your open plan living.
This hardwood screen is made by designer Matt Gagnon. It’s made from natural materials, has a nice earthy feel to it and can provide privacy when you need it. It’s available from 2Modern and costs $2,100.
