Ways to Make Your Wall-Mounted TV More Attractive with Decorations

Fashioned by Erin Williamson

According to interior designer Erin Williamson, "I like to integrate wall-mounted TVs into the rest of the room by surrounding them with art, so that the TV becomes a part of a larger gallery wall." "Anchoring the TV to the wall with a shelf, credenza, or console table gives it a more permanent place in the room." ”

That's Maite Granda!

Decorator Maite Granda, who was born in Cuba but now resides in Florida, opted for a television with a picture frame design that was installed in a built-in wall unit. When not in use, the beach scene looks like a photograph, which is a nice touch that goes with the rest of the decor.

The flat screen television has replaced the antique mirror or oil painting traditionally hung over the hearth. When the television is turned off, the focus shifts to the bright and bold wallpaper in this LA Designer Affair-created design.

What a Lovely Chaos!

Blogger Emma Chapman of A Beautiful Mess says, "I don't really have a big desire to 100% hide my TV in my house because I don't mind seeing them in spaces." But I don't like it when they dominate the space. Unless the TV is turned on and we're watching something, I like how this makes it disappear into the wall. Additionally, this black highlighting stripe draws attention to the artwork that we hung above the television. "

The TV wall in this living room by LA Designer Affair is a focal point without being the main event because of the adjacent wall's deep blue color, custom paneling, and striking artwork. Aesthetic baskets hung over the television also direct the eye upward.

Velinda Hellen, working with Emily Henderson Design, created this comfortable TV nook to hide the flat screen television. Since the room is painted in deep, rich tones, the TV is almost impossible to spot when it's not in use (though if you squint, you might be able to make it out on the right).

Success at Forbes Level

A textured black wall was used by Forbes Masters, an interior design firm, to conceal the television. By placing two identical lamps with black shades on either side of the TV, the viewer's gaze is diverted away from the blank screen and toward a more interesting focal point.

The Master of Forbes

The lacquered walls, mirrored ceilings, imposing chandeliers, and general maximalist bling of this karaoke room from Forbes Masters takes the focus off the TV screen, which is not given pride of place over the fireplace but built into the custom millwork where it takes a back seat when not in use

Just Look at That Beautiful Chaos

Using empty thrift store picture frames and a coat of black paint, blogger Emma Chapman of A Beautiful Mess describes her preferred method of TV camouflage. The author gushes, "I love how the TV kind of disappears into the space," adding, "but when it's on and in use it's actually even more visible with the darker background." "

For the Masters of Forbes

Forbes Masters' minimalist TV wall features a flat-screen mounted on a white wall above a matching credenza. The designers subtly offset its black box effect by using black accents scattered throughout the otherwise white and light neutral room, blending it in with the rest of the setting rather than making it stand out.

Conceived by Ellie Lillstrom and Emily Henderson of Design

The best way to decorate around a TV wall is to replace the flat screen with a projector and use the wall as a blank canvas, which is ideal for those who love a giant screen but don't want to look at it when there's nothing playing on it. the Albie K. designed space showcases For Emily Henderson's Design Team, We Present: Buabeng
