Ideas for TV Wall in Livingroom

last year
last modified: last year

Hi people
I did mount the frame 75 TV but, it still looks very empty and not compleet.
What is the best way to make it look extraordenary?
1. Painting
Should i paint the Wall with the TV?Which color
2. Wallart with structure
I know someone who can make the wallsurface smoth and giv it special looks, like cracked or golden venes etc.
3. Acusticpannels
Not the usual ones. Someting with led steipes?But the proportions are not even :(
I am worried, it will look selfmade, or a too big contrast.
But the space between tv and sideboard should be visible, because i payd a lot for the cables to disapear ;)
Many THX!
BuBa

    All those fnacy wall finishes are IMO too soon to decide since you have no other furniture in the space . You do know any smart TV can be like a Frame . Do yu want or need storage or diplay space The center of the TV should be at eye level when you are seated which IMO defeats the whole purpose of a Frame TV. I use Besta from Ikea often for TV walls where some storage and display is a nice look

    Besta from IKEA is a good idea! Thx 👍

    I finaly start to regret my Frame TV. I did mount it right at eye hight, but it does not look like a frame now 😔

    It’s just a wall and can only bring so much to the room


    if it were me, I would focus on the space as a whole — adding furnishings and texture. You can always add a special treatment later if you still want it

    Hmmm, but what furnishings can be used, to fill the space of the wall?

    This looks very empty :(

    One solution is as mentoined, IKEA Besta. But this will not work with the Sideboard :(

    Ahh, its so hard to combine things! I hate it.

    Are you planning on adding furnishings and a rug to the room? of course a wall with a TV is underwhelming - the room is empty

    I was looking for something special, not the woodpaneel that everyone has.

    Something like this, i found now:



    Those elements can be installed around the TV!

    Or even bether i would like to put them over the corners, of the whole wall!

    Good idea?

    Instead of deciding on elements in a piecemeal fashion it would be best to sit down with graph paper, select furniture pieces that you are interested in and add them to your plan. At the same time you can think about colors that you would like to use in your home. Would advise that accessories can be selected last.

    So if i understand you all right, there must be putt furniture around the TV? Around the empty space?

    I thougt, less is more?

    Is it not oldscool to put lot of furniture in?


    Here the rug and sofa:



    But what has this to do with the Wall?

  • last year

    For me the rest of the room is ok and no need to change.


    The TV is mounted to high?!?!?

    89cm from the ground.

    When i am sitting my eyes point sligtly above the middle of the TV. I dont think its to high.


    It seams like, if you ask some one, you will get 100 answers. So maybe it is bether to let time bring the solution :) i realy dont know what furniture will fit, because all other furniture are kind of not massproduction, i think.

    So IKEA will not fit the gold black collor :(

    Maby my expections are to high, and an normal furniture and some decoarticles are good enough.

    We got a decorative frame for our 75" Frame TV. From https://decotvframes.com/

    They are pricey, but very easy to assemble and install.

    I tried having my local frame shop make me something, but he was not interested (even after I gave him a lot of business a few months earlier!), so I ordered online.

    You are getting PRO advice, Norwood, Patricia, me. You don't want to hear it, so have at it? You are showing one wall, you are "happy with the rest" we can not even see....!!

    Maybe your expectations for the space are not " too high".... perhaps they are a bit too LOW.: )?

    Raise your expectations, do a drawing and add all dimensions and you may find "extraordinary" suggestions for a more extraordinary result with the wall.....and IN the context of the entire room .

    If you paid a designer to come to your home,......would that designer not see the WHOLE of the space?

    Thank you chipsa, this looks greate! Woow, this frame matches wit our design. Thx a lot.


    Did you had problem with the Sensors?




  • last year

    To all others: sorry for my behavour (and my bad english).

  • last year

    Get a frame from decoframes. Frame TVs IMO don't look like pictures unless they have an actual frame. They have a ton of frames to match whatever decor you have. Maybe yours is modern based on that very zoomed in pic of a coffee table?

    And no, there is no issue with the sensor. The frames are made for it.

    Show us the room with the furniture in it for more advice. If the furniture is all the way back where that tiny piece of couch is shown in your photo, then your furniture is WAY WAY WAY too far away from the TV. You should have your seating no more than 10' from that TV for best viewing. Of course, most people don't sit that close, but nobody sits 20' away.

    Your comment about IKEA besta not working because of black and gold is not correct. IKEA has black BESTA units and black cabinets. Gold hardware for it can be purchased online. We just did a dry bar with IKEA sektion in black & gold.

    Are you planning on keeping the console you have under the tv now or are you wanting to start fresh with a whole wall design? This answer will inform the answers you are getting.

    Your TV is mounted too high above the console. When you have that space it looks empty and then people want to start placing junk, oh excuse me accessories, on top of the console.


    You can finish off the wall with a tree, some art and depending on how you arrange the furnishings an accent chair, floor lamp and drum table.

    Your sofa and coffee table need to move closer to the tv. For a 75 inch tv the recommended viewing distance is approximately 10.5 feet. Moving your furniture closer to the tv will help fill in the area so your tv wall is not so isolated from the rest of the room.

    Bu Ba, no issues with the sensor. I have it set to go to sleep and no issues detecting motion and waking up again.

    Regarding the TV height, some of that can be solved by purchasing a frame for the TV. We had to get a thin one for ours (unfortunately) as ours was mounted too close to the mantel, but you could get a thicker frame, which can take up some of that space. Here's one in gold/black, which seems to be your theme?



    There are lots of options.

    Thank you all for the very usefull comments and my editet photo, this is awesom! :)


    Does your comment meaning, that the 75' is to smal? Pleas dont tell mi i shoult take the 85'! I cant change it now :(

    So for this distance, the 85' would be perfect, right?


    Ill buy def. a decoframe, the black and gold one is fittig with the Table and the sideboard (or is the right name console?)

    Yes, this object under the tv stays there.


    The idea with the plant is perfect! Thanks!


    Thank you anj! Very usefull idea with thiker frames! This will fill the gap!


    I know the console is not realy made for a TV, but the boss (wife) did choos that crap :)


    Thank you all for the usefull ideas! Did help me a lot!


  • last year

    Omg, look how high they mount it in the advertise!



    So mine is not realy high ;)

  • last year

    You need to move your furniture closer not get a new TV. No one is suggesting you need a bigger TV.

    And yes, many people mount their TVs too high. Sometimes it's unavoidable, when you put it over a fireplace, for example.
