Screening options inside and out

What are screens and how might we use them in design?

If you want to add some interior detail to your home these are great. And they have a sale going on as well. I am trying to find some way to use them in my own home. The photo below shows a number of product that can add texture to your home or office space.

Office use of visual screen- screens are used to further define rooms in spaces. They work better than solid walls by allowing light to pass through. Thereby not making these smaller spaces feel to small, but feel comfortable. 

The other interesting space to add detail is in your backyard. Imagine a screen like this used around outdoor pergola to add additional screening options from the sun. Even more ideal is to put a screen like this on tracks kind of like doors so you can move them around.

Here is a more modern pergola design.



An example of a screen integrated into the back porch of a home. Living in warmer climates like California you have the ability to enhance your outdoor spaces and your home by creating various outdoor rooms that are adaptable to the climate.
 
Here is the link to this company who is having the sale if you are interested.  I am not sure if their product can be used outside.
