PARTITION

A partition including, but not limited to, a first body comprising a planar, foldable material. The partition further comprises a plurality of flat substrates resistant to folding. The partition further comprising an adhesive. The substrates are adhered to the first body by the adhesive and arranged in a repeating pattern that defines a plurality of columns and rows. Each column and each row is spaced apart from its neighbor, thus defining longitudinal gaps between the columns and lateral gaps between the rows. The first body folds laterally along the longitudinal gaps in an accordion-like manner and contemporaneously folds longitudinally along the lateral gaps in an accordion-like manner. The partition contracts both laterally and longitudinally when first body contemporaneously folds laterally and longitudinally. The partition extends both laterally and longitudinally when the first body contemporaneously unfolds laterally and longitudinally.
