Chiasso bamboo coil room divider-

http://www.chiasso.com/store/item.aspx?ItemId=50514

We bought one a couple of months ago at the warehouse sale and like it very much. I love the bent plywood eames divider (gorgeous!) but this one was a bit more in our price range.

Ikea Expedit Shelf

Lack Shelf
I'm sure there's a way to connect the Lack Shelves together to make a divider.

There's a Lack bookshelf at IKEA that makes a good room divider, too:

I love Molo's softwall! But *Terramia* has some contending selections on her blog as well. She did a cool post a bit ago which compelled me to consider buying one. Christopher Douglas makes a wicked Flipper screen too.

Williams Sonoma Home has this one on sale: http://www.wshome.com/products/p403/index.cfm?pkey=csalfur

It's a bit asian, a bit traditional, might work with some modern.

Jonathan Adler also has a screen worth mentioning: http://www.jonathanadler.com/shop/product.php?productid=16657&cat=363&page=1

Old Hollywood style, slightly pricey at $850.

And another felt one from designer's eye: http://www.twisthome.com/pages/accessories_divider.htm

(yes, I've been shopping for a room divider!)

Check out the K57 http://www.livingartsdesign.com/html/furniture/14K57.html

The pictures here do not do it justice -it is gorgeous in person - it is made of beautiful leather, with stitching around the edges, and the flaps open freely, pivoting around a central rod. I wish I could afford it, but it is ridiculously priced (I think something around $25000 Cdn)

This is another good option using ISS Designs Quad Poles for shelving and storage. http://www.issdesigns.com/ISS%20NYC%20Divider.htm

Don't forget about LOFTwall. Of course they weren't around when you wrote this. Maybe you guys should do an updated Top 10.

I found this great new company that makes really cool and sleek modern room dividers called iDivide Walls.

They are very affordable and very easy to put together.

Very interesting post. I will soon be adding a customizable room divider with print inserts to my website. Right now I have over 150 different art print room dividers with stock photos and impressionist paintings. They are beautiful functional pieces of art
