Hello everyone,
I’m currently considering how the room divider could be designed—whether it should be accessible from both sides or just one. I’m thinking of a height of about 1.40 m (4 ft 7 in).
On one side, the TV would be mounted, and on the other side, there would be a bench.
My thoughts:
I’m not sure why, but I feel that with the double-sided accessible option, when I’m watching TV, I might notice more movement in the background, which could be distracting, although it would feel more open.
With the single-sided option, I might have more possibilities for design.
Does anyone have experience with this or any opinions?
Thanks and regards!
PS: I also find the example photo interesting.

Walkable on both sides. Otherwise, you could have just had a wall built right away.I wanted to keep it flexible... but thanks.
What minimum clearance widths would you stick to... 85cm (33 inches) on both sides? (On the fireplace side, I would of course measure starting from the edge of the fireplace.)

Regarding the specific question: placing it away from the wall on both sides does take up floor space but looks better.
