dimension: 41" wide

I would like to either install a pocket door or swing door (obviously
a swing would be easier). Couple questions, if I decide on a swing,
which way should it swing? If I decide on a pocket what things should
I take into consideration? Any other advice is appreciated!

Why?

Privacy? Noise? Demarcation? Security?

I, personally, prefer a hanging-bead curtain like you see in Gypsy movies.
