Glass Partitions in Interior Design: 8 Examples

Glass partitions are perfect for small spaces—they help zone the room while keeping the interior light and airy. We explain how designers use them in their projects.

Partition from Glass Blocks

How to separate the kitchen from the living room without overloading the space with extra walls? The designer opted for a partition made of glass blocks. The client found and bought them on Avito, then cleaned them at the production facility.

From Metal and Glass

This 'brutal' variant was chosen by designer Ekaterina Ulanova for a small studio in dark tones. The partition helped zone the tiny space and set up a bedroom by the window.

Sliding Partition in a Niche

In the studio, it was hard to find space for a bedroom, so they decided to decorate it in a niche. A sliding partition separated the private area from the living room. The issue of air exchange was solved by installing a supply ventilation in the ceiling within the niche.

Partially Transparent Partition

In this project, glass blocks were also used, but the partition was filled only halfway. This made the bedroom area more private.

Another Example of a Sliding Partition

If desired, it can be 'folded' like in the photo. To avoid making the interior look too dark, designers suggested painting the base in salmon color.

Full Glass Partition

Looks like a glass wall—partition was installed from floor to ceiling. But due to its transparency, it doesn't seem too bulky. By the way, it can be closed with a curtain if desired.

Partition with Open Passage

Previously, there was a solid wall in its place, which made the entrance hall dark and cramped. Now, natural light penetrates the room. Since no one uses the living room as a private space, there's no need for a door or curtain here.

U-Shaped Partition

Anton Proshakin used a U-shaped partition to separate part of the room for a workspace. Thanks to transparent glass, even in such a tiny space, it's comfortable to work.
