The tops of the Tint screens are strung between pairs of poles, while the rounded bottom corners are left free to waft around.

"The dividers are forming semi-transparent, living veils in space, moving with the wind or people passing," says Kristine Five Melvær.

"They question the amount of shielding needed in order to create zones, as a fragile and organic counterbalance to rigid room dividers."

The project was presented at ™51 gallery in Oslo last week for an exhibition of work by Norwegian designers, called Tingenes Tilstand (The State of Things), where Kristine Five Melvær also exhibited a series of lamps that look like drooping flower buds.
