If you’ve just redecorated your living room or bought a new TV, you may be considering where is the best position to place your television. You want to enhance your living room interior style, but you also need to be able to get a good view of the screen. Take a look at our suggestions of five ways to place your TV in your living room:
1. Above the Fireplace
If you want to make the TV a focus in the room then place it above the fireplace. This is particularly effective nowadays as you can put free digital artwork (or your own photographs) on any smart TV when you’re not watching. Use tv wall brackets to hang your flat screen TV flush to the wall and you can get a great view of your television while keeping your lounge stunningly stylish. Hanging your TV above your fireplace means you have the space to choose a larger wide-screen television, which will give you a cinema room feel. This is the perfect choice for people or families who love to watch films together.
2. On the Wall
Homeowners, who want to keep the fireplace the cosy focus of their living room, but still want to have a TV, can still benefit from hanging their TV on a wall. Consider hanging your TV above a living room unit. It frees up space and can look minimalistic, especially when TV wires are hidden with a false wall or trunking.
3. On a Swivel TV Bracket
If you’re placing the TV in the corner of a room or in a larger open plan area, then you should consider mounting a tilting or full-motion TV Bracket. Attach the TV to the wall with ease, whether you do this with yourself or with the help of someone like this company offering tv installation Perth, and you can easily watch TV from different angles of the room. No more having to close the curtains because of sunlight on the TV screen, just adjust your television angle. Moving brackets are the best choice for the ultimate viewing experience.
4. On Shelving or a Media Wall
If you’re short of wall space, you can put your television on an existing sturdy shelving unit. Try to keep the immediate shelves around the TV uncluttered so they’re not distracting while watching television. However, this can be a good way to make a TV work with your style, rather than vice versa.
If you have the chance consider building a media wall unit so your TV, music system, games consoles, and belongings will all have a place of their own.
5. On a Retro TV Unit
If you have the floor space and are used to watching TV at low and mid-level then invest in a TV Unit. They look so vintage now, which for me is all part of the retro home style. Gone are the days when all CRT TVs would come on their own stand which could be wheeled out. Modern flat-screen TVs also take up far less room, even when placed on a TV Unit, so you can style it with plants (not too close to the TV or wires) and ornaments too. If you only plan to watch TV from one place, usually the sofa, then you can create a cosy and stylish living room with a television on a TV unit.
Where to place your TV in the Living Room?
So to choose the best position to place your TV, consider the following. Do you like to make the television the focus of your living room or only noticeable when it’s being used? Where do you like to sit and watch TV? Where are your sockets located? Then choose the best solution for you and your home.
