Need Help/Ideas to put my TV on in my living room. Can't mount it.
Comments (8)oops, Denita, no pics. here are a few from the Houzz store, just for brainstorming. there are lots of consoles that combine housing for the cable box et al with lots of extra cupboard space, so you should have plenty of options. Ikea makes a lot of great pieces in this particular category too, so you could look there. You could maybe even go superlong to take as much advantage of that wall as possible, especially if you go with white or something else that blends into the background a bit....See MoreFamily room: where to put focal point (fireplace+TV) and furniture
Comments (5)I can see option 2 working the best, but hopefully there is some flexibility at this point. Consider improved functionality, as well as (eventual) resale. You can gain a wider area between kitchen/seating area by changing the opening on lower right to be near kitchen. Now seating area can be moved down! Suggest an island (longer than peninsula if possible) to gain access on both sides, added storage, wider if possible for better entertaining (ie: buffet). I’d move sink/dishwasher to be near dish storage and to keep island/peninsula clear. People will gravite here. A focal wall with built in electric fireplace would feel spacious, be a great feature in your open concept, and keep that space uninterrupted to get to opposite side of room. Opposite wall idea. There is a lot to consider and thinking about overall functionality is key before furniture placement. Hopefully you have a floor plan with exact dimensions, structural components and space requirements to make the best decisions. Good luck....See MoreWhere do I put my tv?
Comments (10)For me, the mantle would be the last place to place a big TV. I have never enjoyed cranking my neck back to look up at a TV like that. That said, it is easy enough to get a "glued-on" mirror off the wall, if you like. In reality, it looks like you have plenty of room on the 2 walls that others have mentioned. Of course you know you can place swing-arm raising/lowering articulated special TV mounts if you're picky. But if you like TV so much, then who cares about a dining room? Don't you have another place to eat ? I'd readily re-arrange the dining area, and eat in the kitchen....See MoreWhere to put the soundbar for the TV in the Salon?
Comments (4)I suggest you purchase a console the width of the wall on which your tv is mounted. OR, if you can’t find one narrow enough to stand on the little step beneath your tv, that you have a wooden shelf custom made to that width and place it beneath your tv. Center the tv on the wall and place the sound bar beneath it. I would remove the three tiny shelves to the side of your tv. I don’t understand their purpose. Simplify the space....See MoreKendrah
