Openwork wooden panel—a return to 1960s design in a modern interior

16 of September '26

In interior design, there is an increasingly evident return to objects created several decades ago but which still delight with their form and functionality. The design of the 1960s is once again inspiring architects, and the rounded lines, natural wood, and lightweight structures characteristic of that period fit perfectly into contemporary interiors. Openwork walls made of bent plywood hold a special place—a combination of furniture, decoration, and a functional partition.

A room divider, bookshelf, and decoration all in one

A wooden room divider allows you to divide a space without closing it off. It subtly defines the boundaries between zones while maintaining the flow of light and the airiness of the space. It can separate the living room from the dining room, the lounge area from the home office, or the bedroom from the walk-in closet. Wider shelves also allow it to be used as an open bookshelf for books, plants, or decorative items.

Its design fits perfectly with the Mid-Century Modern aesthetic but also complements minimalist, eclectic, and contemporary interiors. The geometric rhythm and rounded edges give it character while keeping the space visually light.

Curved plywood and timeless design

A return to 1960s design also means a focus on quality, durable materials, and designs that remain relevant for years to come. Bent plywood allows for the creation of organic lines and light, openwork structures.

Nordic Screens combine classic form with contemporary needs. The screen is available in natural oak, walnut, and black finishes. The set can be complemented with adjustable metal legs, also available in an elegant gold finish.

A striking accent in the interior

A well-designed room divider doesn’t have to be merely a practical piece of furniture. It can become one of the most important accents in an interior—a sculptural piece that organizes, decorates, and divides the space with class.
