I would not hang it. That would make it too high. I like where it is now. Wall decor is not really needed. You have the nice large peice behind the sofa. The eyes need a rest occasionally. The concept of negative space says that you don't need something in every spot in your home. I would remove the clock. It doesn't add to the visual attraction of the room.

i would remove whatever is on your lower wall, it makes what looks to be an already low ceiling look even shorter. Paint and hang your tv over a correctly sized console. I think you could also benefit from having your furniture rearranged. If you post the floorplan there are a lot of people here that could give great advice with furniture placement and traffic flow. Good luck

M Riz, it’s tile (I think). This is a fab apt in Hong Kong.

Max, can you get a pic facing that wall? Maybe it would be best to hang the TV? It just depends on what height you like it to be.

I love art and have five pieces around my TV (which sits on a buffet). It’s just personal preference.

(With your view, I don’t think I’d ever have the TV on!) 😄

Yes Jinx it’s tile and can’t be removed, it’s part of the wall as well as the flooring.

@M Riz, here’s a different angle of the apartment to give you an idea of layout

Wow, that is a beautiful view. with a wider view, your layout looks great, the tv is the problem… We have a Samsung Frame TV, it looks just like art on the wall. That would do it lol. You have a very nice apartment, nice furniture…but that clock…its ruining the vibe lol

ETA , I dont see a coffee table, Id hang the TV, lose the console and add a coffee table. Good luck,

I would hang it on the wall where your painting is. Swap time. Because no decoration around a TV is called for it makes sense that it is hung on the wall.

Max, if you decide to leave the TV on the buffet, I’d find a piece of art for over it, centered between the wall and doorway. I wouldn’t worry about it being centered right over the TV.

@M Riz, thanks! I’m planning to have that clock replaced, thats a temporary spot. Will either have a piece of art, or nicer looking clock ? Also looking to get a coffee table but haven’t decided on the style. Console is brand new so not too keen on getting rid of it😂😂 lol!

Jinx, that was my original question on the decor I should put above the tv

Can’t get enough of this view 😂😂😂

Ok, just put a mirror on that wall to see the view from every angle. Finally, Patricia will have her ”Mirrors need to reflect something worth seeing twice” success story! (Sorry, Max, inside joke, don’t put a mirror there.) :D

Back to the TV … what do you think is the best viewing height — up on the wall or on the console? We can’t answer that, only you can. :)

Jinx, for viewing the tv is at a good height at the moment. The reason for having it hung up was more for aesthetics, and wanting less of a white plain wall behind it.

I don’t like to choose art for people, but did come across this awesome vintage piece:

It might be more gold and vibrant than you want. Another I like:

Anyway, just some examples … I think art depicting the harbor would be pretty cool and ironic across from the real view.

Jinx, thanks! Great suggestions 😁
