The Klak room divider is a modular cardboard structure made from interlocking pieces that slot together to form sculptural walls, partitions and display backdrops. Each module connects using a simple slot system, creating a repeating pattern that feels somewhere between furniture and architecture. When assembled, the pieces form a grid of cube-like shapes or curved forms that create depth, texture and shadow. Because the system is modular, the wall can grow in almost any direction. Modules can be added vertically to increase height or horizontally to extend the wall. This makes it easy to adapt the structure to different venues, floorplans and creative concepts. Klak dividers work well anywhere you want to shape a space without building a heavy wall. They are often used in exhibitions, retail displays, brand activations, workshops and theatre environments where temporary structures still need to feel considered and visually interesting. How the Klak Modular Divider Works Slot together modular structure Each Klak unit is cut from cardboard and designed to slot into neighbouring pieces using integrated tabs. No tools or hardware are required. Pieces slide together and hold themselves in place through the geometry of the design. Because the structure is made from many interlocking modules, weight is distributed across the grid rather than relying on a single large panel. This makes the divider surprisingly stable while remaining lightweight and easy to transport. Two design styles Klak is available in two visual styles. Square modules create a grid of cube-like forms that feel architectural and structured.Curved modules soften the pattern and create a more organic sculptural look. Both versions use the same slot-together concept and can be scaled to suit many different environments. Square Klak Room Divider Size Guide Because Klak stacks diagonally, every second row steps inward slightly. Those rows include half stability units on each side which help lock the structure together.

Understanding the Stacking Pattern Klak walls are built in alternating rows. The bottom row always contains the maximum number of full units, which defines the overall width of the wall. The next row sits slightly inside that footprint. For example, a wall that is 6 units wide stacks like this: Row 1: 6 full unitsRow 2: 4 full units + 2 half stability unitsRow 3: 6 full unitsRow 4: 4 full units + 2 half stability units This alternating pattern continues as the wall grows taller. The result is a strong structure that also creates the distinctive Klak visual pattern. Customisation and Branding Klak walls are rarely identical from one project to the next. The modular system allows for a lot of flexibility depending on the creative brief. Colours and finishes Modules can be finished in several ways: natural kraft cardboard CMYK coloured surfaces printed graphics custom artwork or patterns Leaving the cardboard in its natural brown form works well for sustainability themed exhibitions and workshops. Printed or coloured versions are often used for brand activations and retail displays. Printing considerations Because the modules create a three dimensional surface, graphics do not sit completely flat when viewed from the front. This means artwork should be designed with the structure in mind rather than treated like a flat wall. Patterns, colour blocking and repeating graphics tend to work well across the modules. Sustainability Temporary installations can generate a surprising amount of waste. Klak was designed as a lighter, more responsible alternative to traditional set construction. The modules are made primarily from recyclable cardboard and manufactured using efficient flat sheet cutting processes. Lightweight materials Cardboard structures weigh far less than timber or MDF builds, which reduces transport emissions and makes installation easier on site. Reusable design Klak modules can be packed flat and reused across multiple events. Many clients keep the pieces and rebuild the divider in different configurations for future exhibitions or activations. Responsible material sourcing The cardboard used in our builds comes through responsible supply chains and can be recycled through standard cardboard recycling streams at the end of its life. Businesses across many industries are increasingly expected to consider their environmental and social impact. Organisations that meet higher standards for transparency and responsibility are part of a broader movement toward a more regenerative economy. Structures like Klak help support that shift while still creating engaging physical environments. Ideal Applications Klak dividers are used across a wide range of creative environments. Trade shows and exhibitions They work well as lightweight booth dividers, display backdrops or spatial separators inside exhibition stands. Brand activations The repeating modules create a distinctive textured backdrop for experiential marketing events, product launches and promotional activations. Retail displays Retail environments often use Klak structures to define zones, highlight products or create visual interest in store layouts. Workshops and creative events The sculptural quality of the structure makes it popular in arts spaces, design workshops and community events. Theatre and set design Set designers often use Klak to create modular walls that can be reconfigured between productions. Photo moments and installations The repeating pattern makes an interesting visual background for photography and branded photo opportunities. Frequently Asked Questions How strong is the Klak divider? When assembled, the interlocking modules distribute weight across the grid which creates a stable freestanding structure. It is designed as a divider or installation rather than a load bearing wall. Can it be reused? Yes. The modules can be disassembled and packed flat, then rebuilt in different configurations for future events or exhibitions. Can it be shipped interstate? Yes. Because the pieces pack flat, they are much easier to ship than traditional set structures. How long does installation take? Smaller walls can often be assembled within an hour or two. Larger installations depend on the number of modules but remain relatively quick because no tools are required. Can we customise the size? Yes. The modular system allows the divider to be scaled to suit different venues and layouts. Can graphics be printed on the modules? Yes. Modules can be printed using CMYK printing or finished in colour. Designs should account for the three dimensional structure of the wall.
