Hello everyone,

we are currently planning the construction of a single-family house with a kitchen adjoining the living room. A wall is planned between them, the upper part of which we would like to be able to remove depending on the situation in order to have an open kitchen (see attachments, it is about the wall marked in blue and red, blue is fixed and red should be flexible).

The wall is two meters wide and the room is 2.50 meters high, the lower part of the wall should remain permanently at around 110 cm (counter height). My first fixed idea was to install a TV lift in the lower fixed part of the wall and to cover it with drywall panels to create a retractable inner wall. However, these lifts only have about 80 cm lift, which is not high enough for me. Also, the extendable part of the wall would have to be somewhat higher than the fixed part, which makes the whole thing more difficult again. And I don’t know how precisely this lift would operate.

Does anyone have a creative idea how something like this could be realized at reasonable costs? Also completely different approaches are welcome.

Thank you very much in advance!

Maybe a glass sliding door?

Room height less than 2.60m is bad for property value

Are you only concerned about privacy? Then the simplest solution would be to install several blinds or shutters. Unfortunately, I can't think of anything for an actual wall.

The simple option would be to take a blind.

I honestly don't think one would use that in the long run either, the open version just looks airier as well.

Best regards
