Typically, television sets grab all the attention in a room. In 4 out of 5 cases, if a visitor enters your living area, their eyes will immediately land up on the tv set. It could be because the device is placed in plain sight or the fact that most people don’t think to decorate the area surrounding the tv. This also means that the rest of the decor in the house doesn’t really blend with the area where you have positioned your tv. So let us help you plan your decor with 10 creative and modern ways in which you can incorporate the tv screen.
1. Use Multi-Purpose Furniture
Modern and highly functional, multi-purpose furniture is essential nowadays for any modern home. By adding multipurpose furniture creatively, you can make your room look more breathable and lighter. You can go for different techniques here - if you like the look of a purpose-built tv unit, then make sure that it serves more than one purpose and saves space.
2. Add a Special Element in the Room
By adding a unique element, your room gets a personality of its own. It could be a small item such as an elegant rustic chair or a grand element such as an indoor fountain. You can choose by adding something that is very special to you and adds an element of surprise. These little touches along with the TV will blend in nicely in your room.
3. Place it Near the Fireplace
Who doesn’t love to spend their evenings near the warmth of the fire? Plan your fireplace decor by placing the tv on top of the mantle. It will immediately attract the attention of those escaping cold evenings and allow you to comfortably binge on your favorite TV series.
4. Use Acrylic Panels or Wood
Acrylic walls in monotones can change the entire look of the room. Adding it as a backdrop behind your television will not only enhance the shape and color of the tv but also engage the viewer’s attention. This is quite an extravagant design choice if that’s what you are aiming for. Make sure to add some decorative pieces to make your room look more nuanced. If you plan to add a wooden unit or bookcase next to your tv, then go for muted colors or neutral shades.
5. Art Deco for Inspiration
Art Deco stands for bold design which combines different shapes and geometrical patterns, metals in chrome, rich colors, detailed intricacies, and the beauty of the 20th-century era. One can choose to decorate their entire living room to mirror the art deco styles or pick one or two accents to design a particular corner near the television. Try to pick some armchairs in angular shapes, or a rug with a bold color/print. You may choose to add some large frames with early Hollywood references and celebrity parties - to capture the era perfectly.
6. Theatre Room Inspiration
If you always wanted the look and feel of a home theater, then here’s your chance. Adding a modern tv with an exceptional home theatre system can make for a great cinematic experience. If you make sure to get a tv mounted to the wall that can move in all directions, then the experience can be even better.
7. Blend it in with Matching Frames
If you’re a fan of different styles of wall art, then try framing and mounting your TV on the wall. This will make your TV blend in with framed artwork on the wall. Your room will look more natural than before and will also showcase your collection of artwork.
8. Use Curtains
If your room already has decor that compliments each other, you can get matching curtains near your TV. Full-Length curtains around your TV will give your room a more sophisticated look. You can also shut the curtains when you’re not using your TV.
9. How to Not Get Glares
No one wants to see undesirable glares on their TV screens while watching their favorite TV show. The first thing you can do to get rid of them is to make sure that all light emitting sources are behind the TV. This is to avoid the reflection caused by windows and external light sources. You can also try using blinds or shades on windows to protect your TV from glare.
