Walk into any gaming venue and you’ll probably notice one thing pretty quickly, the noise, the lights, the action. It’s exciting, sure, but it can also be overwhelming. That’s where privacy screens come in. But here’s the thing, privacy screens don’t have to be dull, bulky, or awkwardly placed. They can actually make the whole space look better.
At Design Group, we believe that if you’re adding privacy screens to your gaming floor, you might as well make them look good. You’re not just throwing up barriers, you’re shaping the experience. And when it comes to gaming room design, that experience is everything.
Privacy screens that don’t kill the vibe
We’ve all seen those heavy, clunky dividers that scream “stay away” or “this is off-limits.” But a good privacy screen doesn’t need to send that message. Instead, it should feel like a natural part of the gaming floor, blending in with the rest of the space while still doing its job.
Players want a bit of space. A place where they can focus, feel a little tucked away, but still part of the energy of the room. That’s why smart privacy screens are so valuable in gaming venues. They carve out personal gaming zones without shutting players off completely.
The Design Group way: custom joinery that fits
At Design Group, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Every venue is different, so why should every privacy screen look the same? Our custom joinery means we design and build each screen specifically for your venue. We take into account your style, space, and player flow to create privacy screens that don’t just work, they look great.
Want timber finishes that match your bar area? Done. Need frosted glass to keep things bright but private? Easy. Want upholstered panels that soften noise? We’ve got you. Every screen we make is crafted with both form and function in mind.
What makes a good privacy screen?
A good privacy screen does more than just block sightlines. It needs to:
-
reduce noise where needed
-
improve the overall layout of the gaming floor
-
match the venue’s design
-
guide foot traffic without being obvious
-
create pockets of privacy without boxing people in
When you get all these things right, players feel more relaxed. And when they’re comfortable, they stay longer, which is great for any gaming venue.
Turning screens into features
We love turning privacy screens into features, not just fixtures. With the right design, a privacy screen can actually enhance the overall look of your gaming room design. Think of timber slats that add texture, or a feature wall that doubles as a screen. Or even laser-cut metal panels that add pattern and interest while serving a purpose.
By using quality materials and clever design, your privacy screens can be more than just practical, they can be beautiful.
Smart placement on the gaming floor
Placement is just as important as the screen itself. We work closely with venues to figure out where privacy screens will have the most impact. Maybe it’s between rows of poker machines. Maybe it’s sectioning off a VIP area with a custom screen. Maybe it’s creating a softer transition between the gaming area and the bar.
Every gaming floor has its quirks, and that’s where our range of custom privacy screens comes in. We’ve installed thousands across Australia, and we know how to make them work in real spaces, not just on paper.
Not just screens, but solutions
Sometimes it’s not just about one privacy screen here or there, it’s about the whole flow of the venue. That’s why we don’t stop at screens. Our custom joinery services can include gaming machine bases, feature walls, bars, and more. When everything is designed together, the whole gaming room design just makes more sense.
We’ve had clients come to us wanting to fix just one thing, and after seeing the difference, they end up refreshing their entire gaming floor with better flow, sound control, and style.
The noise factor
Noise is a sneaky one in gaming venues. Too loud, and players leave sooner. Too quiet, and it feels flat. Privacy screens can help manage noise without killing the buzz.
For example, upholstered privacy screens can absorb sound, while timber or glass screens can direct the sound flow. It’s all about balance, and we work with venues to find the right materials and placements to get it just right.
Flexible designs for changing needs
One of the best things about privacy screens is their flexibility. Your venue’s needs might change, you might host events, tournaments, or just want to freshen things up every so often.
With our custom joinery, we can design privacy screens that are semi-permanent, movable, or even modular. That way, you can reconfigure your gaming floor when needed without starting from scratch.
Why design group?
We’re not just joiners, we’re partners in making your venue better. Design Group handles everything from the first chat to the final installation. Our factory in Ingleburn means everything is made here in Australia, built by people who know what works on a gaming floor.
We’ve worked with clubs, pubs, and casinos of all sizes, and we’re proud to say we don’t do boring. Every privacy screen we build is designed to solve problems while looking great.

If your gaming room design feels a bit tired, noisy, or disjointed, a well-designed privacy screen might be the easiest fix. It’s a small change that can lead to big results, better flow, happier players, and a space that feels polished and welcoming.
