Between the cables which are among the worst enemies of the decoration of the house and the screen which must be well oriented, it is not always easy to arrange the TV corner. Decorating tips and ideas: we take stock!
Furnishing the TV corner: what to think about?
Whether your TV corner is installed in the living room or in the bedroom, it is essential to position your television correctly. You must take into account mainly two essential points:
- The distance from the sofa — proportional to the distance from the screen: you should neither be too far nor too close;
- The layout of the window — in order to avoid annoying reflections, avoid installing the TV opposite.
Are you moving in? Check where the sockets necessary for the operation of your TV corner are located, and take this into account to organize the right layout for the living room from the outset.
Mistakes to Avoid when Arranging the TV Corner
When setting up the TV corner, it can happen to give in to the easy, taking inspiration from a classic layout: the television and its furniture enthroned in majesty facing the sofa. The most obvious solution is then, very often, to choose the largest section of wall, and to install XXL furniture there. However, this is not the only option… and it is not even always the best!
In this small living room, we exploit a section of wall that could have been lost. Instead, the TV’s relatively low positioning serves the Berber-inspired decor perfectly. Thick rugs and poufs and cushions: it’s good to chill in this cocooning and very trendy TV corner.
The development of a studio or a small apartment offers great possibilities in terms of decoration. If all styles are allowed, it is important to pay attention to the size of the furniture. To avoid overloading your interior, prefer small furniture for your TV corner. Depending on the configuration of the living room, a corner model will prove to be the smartest.
On a wall with XXL dimensions, on the other hand, it is possible to dare to use more massive furniture. Even if you fall for sleek contemporary decoration, leaving the screen isolated on the wall is not necessarily a good idea. In this contemporary living room, we play with elements to “reframe” the television.
The TV corner is by definition a real eye-catcher. The furniture must be functional: it is therefore easier to opt for an authentic TV cabinet than for a diverted piece, such as a row. But be careful not to neglect the aesthetic aspect. Whether your living room is industrial, Japandi, bohemian, contemporary or country chic, the TV corner must fit perfectly into the decor.
To integrate the TV corner more harmoniously into the living room, avoid untimely acquisitions and hazardous furniture combinations if possible. Shelves, spaces for your equipment: take stock of your needs and think about the space as a whole.
