Threshold Room Divider High version

The “Threshold” screen series, designed by Neri&Hu, is a sophisticated free-standing partition that challenges conventional ideas of privacy and space division.

This series goes beyond the typical role of a screen, not only serving as a privacy layer but also becoming an integral part of the aesthetic and functional composition of an interior space.

Neri&Hu’s design approach for the “Threshold” screen emphasizes the interplay between structure, materiality, and dimensionality. The screen’s framework is meticulously crafted, offering a robust yet visually light structure that supports a range of infill materials.

The designers have thoughtfully selected materials such as mirror, rattan, and corrugated glass to create a dynamic surface that interacts with light, reflections, and shadows.

Each material choice brings its own unique character to the screen, whether it’s the reflective quality of the mirror, the tactile warmth of rattan, or the textured translucency of corrugated glass.

This thoughtful material selection allows the “Threshold” screen to function on multiple levels. As a privacy layer, it effectively obscures the view between different areas without completely closing off spaces, maintaining a sense of openness and connection.

However, its functionality extends beyond mere partitioning. The screen becomes a statement piece within a room, adding visual interest and contributing to the overall atmosphere of the space. The use of varied materials also invites a tactile experience, encouraging interaction with the piece.

The “Threshold” screen series is versatile in its application, making it suitable for both residential and commercial settings. Whether used to create intimate zones within a larger room, to divide workspaces, or simply to add a layer of texture and depth to an interior, the screen adapts effortlessly to different environments.

Its ability to balance privacy with openness, functionality with aesthetics, makes it a valuable addition to contemporary interiors, embodying Neri&Hu’s philosophy of creating designs that resonate with both form and function.
