apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I know you don't want to ask the question, but I'm still going to give you an answer: It's HOT.

I could see this used as a room divider. It could work well any place where separation (but not privacy) is needed.

I seem to remember a showhouse on the Peninsula a few years back (was it in Menlo Park for Sunset?) that used this material to screen off a closet in the Master Bedroom rather than doors - which was great as it used far less space than doors.

I LOVE this idea. It is definitely hot, and I would use it in my bathroom if it had a more industrial feel, square white sink with shiny nickel legs. Unfortunately I rent, so I'm stuck with the brown wood floors and ugly white square tile.

It would match my bathroom, so that's where I would use it.
ust one question: Isn't is heavy?

HOT! Where can a person buy it?

It is hot. My big bay window in the living room. Lets a lot of light in- without a lot of privacy. This would be a great window treatment... would probably also make a cool texture-y shadow when the sun shines through... Maybe I'd put some silvery satin panels on either side to soften it a bit.

just wondering about rust from the moisture in a shower?

How about a great suspension light fixture? Installed on the ceiling around a strategically placed recessed light, the material would act as a diffuser creating very dramatic lighting.

I'm going to echo what Vanessa said. It would work perfectly as a room divider. It would let a lot of light in, but feel more substantial than a sheer curtain.

I currently reside in a very industrial-style loft. The entire kitchen is restaurant-quality stainless steel. This material would be a great "door" for my pantry instead of the blonde wood doors that are there now!

Reupholster one of those fancy armchairs with it. So when your guests walk in they can do a double take and ask "Is that a freaking chain mail chair?!" and you can say "Yes. Yes it is."

I think it's ugly.

there. I said it.

@That70sHeidi - Thanks for the laugh. And if I ever come to visit, I promise to ask, even if you don't have the chair. LOL!

Try hanging it along a wall, as a wallpaper, to create an interesting depth to otherwise a plain 2D wall.

Also works pretty well as a privacy screen for the dressing area.

LOVE THIS. I've seen quite a few applications of this and have always loved it, but the shower curtain is new to me and awesome!

I wonder if it would get that weird wet metal smell after a while though? I wouldn't want my bathroom to smell like a garage. Maybe if you sprayed it with a clear lacquer first? I love the idea for other parts of your home though.

I told them to take this out of the apt I moved into in NYC in 1994. The guy was using this to room divide the office from the rest of the office. I was going to use it as a home, so I wanted it to be the dining area, since it was next to the kitchen. Prior tenant never used the kitchen as a kitchen, but had probably 80 blue binders in the cabinets, oven, etc.

Knights can bathe, too!

I think these curtains look awesome as room dividers in open, high-ceiling spaces - one of the cantines at work has them with 15' ceilings. I'm unconvinced with a shower curtain application. A small bathroom would really have to be perfect to make this look cool, rather than weird.

Its HOT---where does one buy such stuff. Also how much money for such Hot stuff?
Not sure what my cat would do with it.

I've used this as a room divider in client's apts. and it also makes a great desk/table skirt.
