Show , Partitions Made ; Of New Materials I Popularity of the dual-purpose I room, such as a living-dining i room or a combination kitchen and utility room, has encouraged I the use of new materials for par-1 par-1 tial or complete partitions, says i American Builder magazine, i "Full-height opaque or corru-i corru-i gated glass is often used as a par- tial separation between hall and ' living room, and living and din-' din-' Ing rooms. This merely gives the : suggestion of separation, which is i all that is necessary," tiie maga-I maga-I zine adds. i American Builder also says that floor-to-ceiling structural glass partitions provide an effective way to enclose one or both ends : of a bathtub. For skylights in kitchens or bathrooms, translucent plastic, available in 25- by 27-inch panels, is said to be an excellent material. |
