The first blinds performed only two functions - protection from sunlight and from prying eyes. Over time, options appeared for installation on the outside of the building - roller shutters. And the blinds used indoors have been improved. Designers made them a full-fledged decorative element.

Now they are used not only for installation on windows, but also as partitions in rooms. Manufacturing and installation for various premises is carried out by Revecon.

Interior options

Most often, such structures are used in the interior in the following places:

Advantages

The main advantages include the following:

  1. Airy and lightweight design. The curtains and cornices of the blinds are not very heavy, so they do not pose a load to the walls and ceilings of the openings.
  2. Unusual and aesthetic design. This option for decorating a room looks unconventional and unique. They are not often found in the interior of premises, so they attract attention.
  3. Compactness. The structures can be moved or collapsed at any time.
  4. Zoning and division of premises. Blinds can be used as a door to divide the space of a room into two functional zones. For example, in this way you can separate a sleeping area or an office. Or create places for children to relax and separately for adults.

Main types of blinds as partitions

There are several types of blinds that can be used as partitions in the interior:

Vertical models. These options are similar to office blinds. They are collected through thread.

Horizontal views. Manufacturers offer different options for their implementation. Different fabrics are used to make them.

String. They resemble threads. This type of partition is used for decorative division of a room. The system also protects from sunlight.

"Harmonic". This type would be an excellent solution for a doorway. Manufacturers also offer lightweight accordion doors.

Flying. This is a horizontal type of blinds; the guides are connected to each other by a special mechanism that allows you to adjust the product in height.

In addition to the noted types, there are furniture ones. Surely every person has encountered furniture with built-in blinds in their homes. This setting is associated with tropical southern notes. This design is an insert into the door. Typically, such options are made of plastic or wood. Materials containing wood are also used.

When furnishing a room in a modern style, you can install blinds instead of doors. This functional and original solution will transform the room and allow you to play with the interior and design of individual items. Door blinds have an affordable price and are suitable for apartments of any size.

Features, pros and cons

Furnishing an apartment involves not only purchasing new furniture and finishing surfaces, but also involves purchasing new doors. When you want something unusual, you can install blinds instead. An unusual solution will decorate a modern interior and give it liveliness. It is important to consider that blinds act only as partitions between rooms or are used for zoning. If you plan to replace entrance doors with them, the products are combined with regular canvas.

What is the difference between blinds:

  • Original design. Door blinds have not yet received widespread use, and therefore they look unusual and attract attention. Manufacturers offer models in different colors, which simplifies their selection to a specific interior.
  • Light weight. Lightness is one of the advantages of blinds. They weigh several times less than a door and do not load the openings. Thanks to this, they can be transported to any distance.
  • Possibility of zoning. Blinds, purchased instead of a door, allow you to divide the space into parts. Arrangement of functional areas is a suitable option for a studio apartment and large halls. For this purpose, you can specially create partitions to delimit the room.
  • Easy to install. Even a beginner can handle installing blinds. They have a clear design and do not require the use of specialized tools.
  • Functionality. The models fold and unfold easily. If necessary, the blinds can be removed or moved to a new place, and during operation it is possible to regulate the amount of light entering the room.

Despite the large number of positive aspects, blinds have a number of disadvantages.

  • The products are not capable of providing sound insulation, so you will hear everything that happens in the next room or area.
  • The service life and strength of the product are several times lower than that of conventional doors. At the same time, replacing the blinds with new ones is not difficult, so this operation is carried out every few years.
  • Models require constant care: elements must be regularly wiped from dust.

Blinds are not able to protect the room from penetration, so they are not used to replace entrance doors. To strengthen the products, metal roller shutters are used, making the structure more durable. In addition, blinds are not suitable for every interior.

They will stand out from the design of a classic room, however, they will perfectly complement a room in the Art Nouveau style.

Varieties

Blinds are used to separate rooms. Manufacturers offer several models of these accessories. First of all, they are divided into horizontal and vertical. The former are the most famous and widespread type of blinds. The elements are located parallel to the coating and can be opened and closed if necessary.

Vertical accessories can reach the floor or end higher; the slats have different widths and are usually made of fabric.

In addition, products are divided into types depending on the function performed, design features and aesthetic characteristics:

  • Sliding. An original solution that references Asian style in the interior. An option for those who value high functionality and practicality of products combined with an unusual design. They are installed directly on the doors and slide apart together with them. Such blinds will look good on balconies and in country houses.
  • Decorative. They play a purely aesthetic role. Light blinds hardly protect the room from light, dust or dirt, however, they can be made in non-standard colors, decorated with patterns and small details. Suitable for installation on additional partitions in the room.
  • Foldable. A modern design idea, invented and brought to life by German specialists. Blinds consist of a continuous sheet of fabric, on which folds are located parallel to each other. The model is durable and flexible and retains its original appearance for a long time. Blinds are suitable for interiors in which clear lines and strictly observed proportions dominate.

  • Harmonic. Vertical doorways connected by fabric or leather. They are assembled using a rail, which rides on top or bottom using special fasteners. The model is used as partitions or for cabinets, including built-ins.
  • Curtains-blinds. Lightness, variety of shades, unusual design - all these are the advantages of this model. Mostly they are installed on the balcony, because the accessories additionally serve to protect the room from bright sunlight. The blinds are made in a rich range of colors, have compact dimensions and are easy to install.
  • Anti-vandal. The models are characterized by increased resistance to external mechanical influence. They are equipped with anti-burglary roller shutters that serve to strengthen the structure. The models can be installed on doorways of any size, while the area is completely covered. In case of emergency, the shutters can be easily opened without impeding evacuation. The advantage of protective roller shutters is that they are completely invisible when raised.

Materials

Accessories are made from different types of raw materials. The operational and external characteristics of the products, their appearance and service life depend on this. This also affects the price, which depends on the specific brand. Types of blinds depending on the materials used:

  • Wooden.
  • Metal.
  • Plastic.
  • Iron.
  • Glass.
  • Silicone.
  • Aluminum.

Accessories made of wood look original and are suitable for interiors made in natural colors and minimalist rooms. At the same time, wood is susceptible to moisture and burns easily. Metal (iron, aluminum) blinds are durable and wear-resistant, however, they weigh a lot and are not suitable for classic rooms. And glass accessories will decorate ultra-modern interiors. To extend their service life, blinds are coated with protective agents and impregnations that reduce the negative impact of the environment.

Silicone models are a modern solution that looks unusual and conceptual. They additionally protect the room from dust and dirt particles, are lightweight and easy to transport. Such accessories can be transparent, only nominally playing the role of a door partition. At the same time, the model is perfect for zoning and visually delineating different parts of the room, while at the same time creating the effect of unity of space.

Dimensions

The dimensions of the blinds are directly related to the width and height of the doorway. They can cover it completely or not reach the floor, which is also taken into account when purchasing. Rectangular blinds are considered standard, however, there are also square models. Sometimes blinds take up only half of the doorway or have an unusual shape - it all depends on the design idea of ​​the room owner. The production of accessories to order allows you to set any dimensions of the products.

Popular colors

Blinds are made in a wide range of colors, which allows you to choose them for almost any interior:

  • White accessories are versatile and fit perfectly into a monochrome design.
  • Blinds made in sand and vanilla tones also go well with other items.
  • When choosing variegated models, you should pay special attention to color compatibility. Blinds should be in harmony with the base shade of the room and not create the effect of a pile-up of tones.

  • Blinds made in pastel colors will complement a bedroom or a bright kitchen. In this case, it is recommended to avoid sharp color transitions, decorating the entire room in a calm palette.
  • Playing with contrasts is an option for a room in the Art Nouveau style. Blinds can have a shade opposite to the wall covering, giving the room liveliness and dynamism.

In any of the listed cases, take into account that the design should not contain more than 2-3 colors at the same time.

Interior placement options

Door blinds act as partitions, limiting both rooms and zones. Depending on the installation location, accessories of different widths and lengths are chosen, which also affects the functions they perform. Thus, blinds can play a purely decorative role or hide part of the room from prying eyes.

Where are door blinds installed:

  • In the doorway.
  • On the balcony door with a window.
  • As interior doors.
  • To the storage room.
  • To the toilet.
  • To the dressing room.

The most common option is installation in a doorway - the solution is practical and functional. When installing blinds between rooms, reinforced roller shutters are not required; any materials will do.

If the apartment is small, for example, consists of one room, it is necessary to create zones in it so that each family member can live comfortably. These can be areas for sleeping, relaxing, working, eating. They can be arranged using a rack, partition, screen, curtains, blinds, etc. In this case, the room becomes cozy and comfortable.
Well, for studio apartments, where the space is single and indivisible, such zones are a necessary help.

Shelving

Shelving

One of the most convenient ways of partitioning is a rack. With its help, you can separate a place for a bed, a sofa, a corner for work, and food. The shelving unit not only serves as a partition, but also serves as practical furniture. In addition, light penetrates into the fenced-off space through it.

You can put books, vases, figurines, your favorite collection, etc. on the shelves of the rack. Pots with indoor plants look especially beautiful on it, creating a “green hedge” and bringing a piece of nature into the room.

The good thing about the rack is that it can be easily installed: assembled and in order. However, if you intend to place something heavy on the rack (books, houseplants), then it is recommended that you screw the side of the rack to the adjacent wall so that it stands firmly and steadily. In any case, it is worth fixing it, it will be more reliable.

The rack can be up to the ceiling or 3/4 high. Also, its upper part can be made to cover the entire width of the room (see photo in the center). In this case, the storage space increases. Its stability also increases.

If you wish, you can not fill the rack with books and other things, but leave it free. Then more light will enter the second part of the room.

Curtains

Curtains provide an excellent opportunity to create zones. They give the room softness and comfort. In addition, they are mobile, they can be moved apart and moved, this is their big advantage.
Curtains are indispensable for separating a sofa, a seating area, a crib, or a dining area. They are also convenient when, for example, one of the family members gets up early and gets ready for work, while the other is still sleeping at that time. In this case, the curtain helps to isolate the second zone of the room from light and noise.

Installing a curtain in a room is very simple. To do this, an ordinary curtain rod must be fixed not above the window, but in the right place in the room, on the ceiling. Any man with hands can handle this.

You can purchase a thin, inconspicuous cornice, or choose a more decorative one, with rings - whatever you like. The main criterion for choosing a curtain rod is this: the curtain should slide along it easily and freely, without difficulty. If it moves with difficulty, braking, the convenience of its use will come to naught.

The material for the curtains can be dense or, conversely, transparent. It depends on the purpose of use. If you need to insulate a space and reduce noise, buy thick fabric. If it is important only to indicate the separation of zones, take light, transparent material.

Partitions

Partitions, screens

Partitions will also help to divide the room into zones. This is a more stable way to create corners for different purposes. Therefore, the installation of the partition must be planned in advance, even during the renovation.

The partition can be sliding or partial (up to half or even less). It can be solid, openwork or made of transparent material (plexiglass, plexiglass). Compositionally, it can turn into an arch (see photo below in the center). There is a lot of room for imagination here.

The location for the partition must be carefully considered in advance, since it can only be demolished during repairs.

You can also use a screen as a mobile partition. It is convenient because it can be placed in the right place in the room and then removed. A beautiful decorative screen serves as an additional element of interior design and comfort.

Blinds

The easiest way to divide space into zones is with blinds. They
They look modern, besides they are light, mobile, they can be moved and extended. Their undeniable advantage is that they can be used to regulate the amount of light in different corners of the room. In addition, they are very easy to install.

Vertical blinds are best suited for dividing a room into zones. In this case, the elements are located not across, but along, i.e., from top to bottom.
Elements of blinds can be narrow or, conversely, wide. They can be smooth or patterned - it all depends on your taste. I note that the wide elements are made of denser material, and therefore create more reliable insulation.

So, if you have a small apartment or own a studio, then dividing the space into zones is often necessary. As you have seen, there are many ways to furnish your apartment comfortably, tastefully, and do it without much difficulty. The main thing is desire, and everything will work out!

Partition curtains are a universal design that allows you to use the curtain not only to decorate windows, but also to separate rooms. Using them, you can transform the space of a room in a matter of minutes, providing personal space even in small apartments. Perfect for studio apartments.

Such elements have been used as partitions for a long time. Our grandmothers also used curtains to divide the space into dining and sleeping areas. Today, when making curtain partitions, modern design trends are taken into account, so you can choose a product in accordance with the design of the room.

Fabric partitions are perfect not only for dividing a room into separate spaces. They can be used instead of doors. The advantage of such a design is that they can be quickly removed and moved to the side.


Today there is a large selection of fabric partitions on the market. They can be divided into several types depending on the installation method.

  1. Fastening to the cornice. The appearance of such designs resembles ordinary curtains attached to a window. However, among the variety of models, you can choose unusual options. This method of fastening is very popular.
  2. Frame. To install such structures, a rigid base is used. They can be divided into several types: roller, sliding, adjustable, folding.


In addition to the installation method, curtains can be divided by type.

Regular

A traditional curtain partition is a fabric sheet that is attached to a string or cornice. To zone the sleeping space, it is recommended to give preference to dense, heavy fabrics. They will be an excellent option for replacing non-existent walls.

Usually the fastening element is fixed just under the ceiling.

Thick fabrics will harmoniously combine with a massive cornice. In this case, rings will be used to secure the fabric. This design will not sag under the weight of the canvas.


If the partition will be used only for decorative purposes, then a lightweight translucent fabric that can be mounted on a string cornice would be an excellent option. The weightlessness of the structure will prevent it from sagging during operation.

Thread

Such delimiting partitions made of fabric are used when it is necessary to block not the entire space of the opening, but only part of it. The disadvantage of such models is that intertwined ropes can impede free movement around the room. It is because of this that thread models are used to zone part of the space.


Thread models can be preferred if it is necessary to enclose part of the room, but at the same time it remains possible to view the space. Most often they are used to draw functional areas in bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms and kitchens.

The methods of fastening such structures provide high-quality ventilation of the room, which is an undeniable advantage of thread models.

The originality and unusualness of the design is betrayed by many thin threads.

You can select models by color depending on the design of the room.

Thread curtains look like streams of water flowing directly from the ceiling of the room. They will be an excellent option for decorating modern premises.


Roller blinds

This type of dividing curtains is the most convenient option. Structures mounted on casters are an excellent solution for disguising a storage room or separating part of a corridor from prying eyes. Zoning with curtains can also be used to delimit a large space.


Using such an element for zoning, you can get not just a beautiful decorative element, but also a device convenient for everyday use. This solution can be used to limit the workspace or dining area in the kitchen.

Screen

Partitions in the form of a screen are a classic option for delimiting space. This design differs from others in the presence of a rigid frame. Models can be presented in three versions:

  • Single screen.
  • Flexible.
  • Casement.

Single screen is a classic option. Installed on two supporting legs. Door screens are equipped with additional legs and fittings (hinges that allow the structure to fold).

Flexible models are made using a single mesh.

If necessary, they can bend in the required direction or fold, occupying a minimum of space in the room.

Features of use

A curtain partition in a room is an excellent solution for replacing walls and doors, allowing you not only to quickly zone the space, but also not to spend a lot of money on such design solutions. When decorating a room, it is recommended to take into account the following features of the use of structures.


The advantages of using fabric partitions as part of the interior include the following aspects.


How to make a curtain partition

Before you make a curtain partition yourself, you need to decide on several questions:

  • Construction type.
  • Material type.
  • Will the design fit into the overall interior design?


The last question is especially relevant if a specific pattern is used as a partition. The advantage of making panels yourself is the fact that you can choose any pattern and design. However, it is worth considering that often, things made independently may not fit into the overall interior of the space.

Choosing a cornice

To attach the partition, you can use a regular ceiling cornice, to which rollers are additionally attached for easy movement of the fabric. The cornice is attached directly to the ceiling.

If preference is given to string, it is not recommended to use heavy fabrics, such as curtains.

You can make the frame for the screen divider or rollers yourself. To install the frame, you will need thin planks and lower beams, which should be heavier than the planks. To form the frame, the planks are fixed around the perimeter. To strengthen the structure, transverse strips are used.


It is recommended to stretch fabric partitions onto a pre-prepared frame. The material is fastened using a stapler or metal staples. When choosing fabric, it is necessary to calculate the length with a margin to ensure tight tension of the fabric.

Material selection

If the curtains are of a neutral color, it is recommended to choose the color of the partition to match the walls of the room, furniture or bedspreads.

This will bring harmony to the surrounding space.

The material can be made from both natural and synthetic fabrics, differing in density and texture. Which divider to choose: thick curtains or a light translucent curtain or thread curtains depends on the personal preferences of the owner of the room and the specifics. An example would be a partition used in a bedroom.


The design should not require additional maintenance, be easy to clean, not absorb foreign odors, and open quickly. Both thread models and thick curtains can be suitable for dividing the sleeping space.

Using fabric partitions, the apartment owner can not only quickly install additional decor in the room, but also separate several zones of the room without using doors or walls.

Sewing

Fabrics for partitions are sewn similarly to window curtains, taking into account the required size and the amount of hem for finishing the edges.

Particular attention must be paid when processing tulle, since this type of material is very delicate.

The fold on the bottom edge in this case should be at least 10 cm. If the size is less than the established value, the folds on the finished product will not hold their shape.


The style and color of the final product depends on the taste and preferences of the apartment owner, as well as on the design of the room itself.

Installation

After the edges of the canvas are processed, a string is threaded through the curtain. For installation on a curtain rod on fabric, it is necessary to provide loops. The finished product must be securely fastened to the cornice. The partition is ready for use if it has taken the required shape and can be easily adjusted in width.


If the structure is made in the form of a screen, it is necessary to check how firmly the material is fixed to the frame. Sash models should fold smoothly.

Using fabric draperies instead of interior walls and doors is a very old tradition that has been around since time immemorial. The emergence and spread of lightweight and cheap materials such as plasterboard, chipboard, MDF, etc., displaced fabric solutions from our homes, but not forever. It turned out that the use of curtains as doors, partitions and visual dividers in some cases is more convenient and expedient. Now this method of interior design is again quite popular.

Curtains instead of doors and partitions: where are they used?

Curtains as light screens are used for zoning in studio apartments and in rooms in which the bedroom is combined with another functional area: living room, office, nursery.

Fabric draperies are a traditional addition to a sleeping alcove. If you put a solid partition and a door here, you will get a closet or closet. It won't be very pleasant to sleep in such a nook. Another thing is a curtain that does not interfere with air circulation and allows you to easily adjust the level of privacy.

In general, it is in bedrooms that curtains instead of doors and partitions are most organic, because there is always a lot of textiles present here. Therefore, for a built-in (and not only) wardrobe or mini-wardrobe in the bedroom, doors are not necessary - curtains, which are absolutely harmonious here, perfectly serve their function.

Due to their lightness and safety, fabric “doors” are perfect for equipping cabinets in a child’s room.

Fabrics are also used to decorate doorways between rooms when privacy is not required.

Separately, it is worth mentioning the styles. The use of curtains instead of furniture and interior doors is most typical for interiors in village(country, Provence) and vintage(retro, shabby chic) ​​styles. Curtains as screens for zoning are used in any style, including modern minimalism and.

Advantages and disadvantages

pros

— Fabric draperies add a touch of romance to the interior and impart such features as softness and lightness.

— Translucent light curtains, used instead of partitions, do not interfere with the movement of light.

— By separating the sleeping area in a studio or common room with an opaque curtain, you can give the room a presentable look in a matter of seconds. When unexpected guests arrive, you won’t have to frantically make the bed and hide personal belongings - all you need to do is close the curtain.

— A thin curtain steals much less precious centimeters than a full-fledged partition. During the day, the curtain can be moved to the side, thereby expanding the space for receiving guests or children's games.

— An important advantage is ease of installation. The process of creating a fabric screen or door is quick, easy and clean.

— If the curtain used instead of a door or partition becomes boring, it can be changed at any time. Fortunately, the cost of this solution is low, and the process of making changes is not too tedious.

Minuses

— Many people treat draperies as dust collectors. This, they say, is not good for health. Yes, dust settles on the folds of the fabric. But if you compare a fabric “dust collector” with partitions and facades made of modern materials, it is not a fact that the environmental friendliness of the latter will be higher. It is no secret that many artificial materials are capable of releasing hazardous substances. And the “dust collector” can always be removed and washed in a washing machine. It is not so difficult.

— While the curtain is being washed or dry-cleaned, the space remains uncovered, which deprives the interior of its coziness. The situation will be saved by purchasing two fabric sets at once. One goes to the cleaners - another takes his place.

— A significant disadvantage of textile partitions and “doors” is that they do not protect against noise and odors. In essence, the curtain does not create a closed private area.

Curtain design with partition or door function

1. For these purposes, fabrics that can hold their shape well are optimal. Even folds will decorate the room, while loose folds will create a feeling of disorder and untidiness.

2. When choosing the color and pattern of the fabric, you need to take into account the design of the window. The principle here is this: if the curtain on the window is colored, it means that the additional curtain in the room should be exactly the same or neutral (for example, white or beige).

If the curtain on the window is neutral, then the choice for additional drapery expands. The curtain for zoning can be matched to the color of the walls, upholstered furniture, bedspreads, etc. If desired, it can also be made neutral.

3. Fabric partitions and “doors” for the closet should not be scanty and wrinkled - this spoils the entire interior. It is worth making the curtain long (to the floor or to the bottom of the closet) and be sure to iron it before use.

4. Curtains for zoning and dividing can be made of either heavy or very light fabric, including voile or even lace.

5. To separate zones, it is permissible to use two types of drapery, as is customary in window design: one is light and transparent, the other is darker and denser. To keep all zones light, only a light curtain is left closed, but if there is a need to make one of the zones more closed, a thick curtain is used.
