How can I use a curtain to work as a room divider? I want to make a space for my art area that is separate to the lounge.

Assuming it is a rectangle, it is fairly easy, in that it is the length of the room multiplied by the width of the room. Of course, it is never that simple, so we have to divide the room into zones, usually rectangles, measure each zone separately as length times width, and then add up all the zones to get the total area of the room.

Any questions, let me know.

Good luck,

Paul

Target has some curtain/ hanging room dividers for around $175 upwards.

Here's one example of a place you can buy a hanging wall divider. http://www.iroomdividers.com/interior-room-dividers/hanging-room-dividers/fauxhoundstoothhangingroomdivider.cfm

If you use your imagination you can come up with some really inventive ideas, using plants, bookcases, curtains or panel dividers to create some privacy in your home without having to buy a room divider.

You can use a curtain as a room divider but I don't recommend itbecause curtains collect dust. Also,room dividers are a great way to make a small room feel bigger where arecurtains just close the room off.

It is definitely acceptable to use a room divider as a dressingroom as long as there is enough space to change, there is no way to see in fromthe sides and if you can't see the changers' shadow.
