How to Disguise Your TV

Let’s all agree, when it comes to your television, size does matter!  Are small televisions even made anymore?  However fantastic for game day the interim is rather unsightly.  So as designers we find ourselves wanting to hide away the big black box on the wall which we can’t live without when we find ourselves some downtime.  In this post, we explore some exciting and new ways to keep that enormous television and make it livable while not in use.

A relatively quick and easy way to blend that electronic eye sore into the room is simply by framing it out to match the rest of your space.  If your windows and crown molding are white, then try matching a similar style white frame and place it on the wall surrounding your TV.  Using a bright accent color will add to the room’s charm and help the TV flow together with its surroundings.
