Features: To utilize indoor partitioning methods, based on the characteristics and functional requirements of the space, artistic features, and psychological elements, the partitioning method should create aesthetic beauty, interest, and artistic conception of the indoor environment while meeting different needs. Through long-term practice and recognition, people have gradually realized that the purpose of interior design is not only the decoration and beautification of interfaces but also more importantly the functional use of the indoor space. That is, according to the different requirements of people for the indoor space, "recreating space," designing its shape and size, thus meeting people's comfortable living and activity environment. The Bauhaus school emphasized that form follows function, advocating the abandonment of superficial decorative elements to create rational spatial arrangements. Transforming unreasonable indoor spaces into practical and comfortable spaces, the main means is the spatial partitioning design of the interior. This design issue, whether in teaching or practice, is both a highlight and a challenge. This book revolves around this issue, discussing several partitioning methods that recreate space from different perspectives. What kind of partitioning method to use must consider both the characteristics and functional requirements of the space, as well as the artistic features and psychological elements. It is the partitioning method that, on the basis of meeting different requirements, creates aesthetic beauty, interest, and artistic conception.
