5 ways to make the TV no longer the center of attention in your living room

No matter how negative we are about TVs, most homes have them. And most often, it looks like a big black box standing in the middle of the room.

SSPDaily writes that you may have already resigned yourself to the fact that you have to see such an unattractive picture every day, but interior designers say that the problem can be solved. Here are a few tips that will help you hide your TV safely, and it will stop visually cluttering up the room.

Paint the wall black

Black walls are always original. In our case, they will also help the TV blend in with the background, and it will no longer be the center of attention. At the same time, the rest of the room can be decorated with light and bright, distracting elements.

Buy a framed TV

Most designers agree with this advice, because Frame TV, when you are not using it, can easily turn into a canvas on which your chosen work of art is displayed. As a result, the boring black box disappears and a new interesting design element appears.

Interior experts say: "Even if it costs more than a regular TV, it's still cheaper than a good TV plus a separate artwork or other complicated ways to hide it."

Express yourself on one wall

Regardless of which wall you hang your TV on, Shelby Van Daly, co-founder of Daley Home in Austin, recommends a bold decision: "Depending on the size of the room, this can be done with large pieces of art or an eye-catching fireplace mantel."

If you decide to use a piece of art, he advises to "zoom in on the center of the wall so that the TV gets 'lost' next to it.

Install a lift

TV lifts are growing in popularity, and they live up to their name as they allow you to raise your TV or lower it from the ceiling. This space-saving option may seem expensive, but it's worth it if you prefer to keep your equipment out of your way and out of your way.

Hang artwork in front of the TV

If you like both your current TV and the Frame TV concept, there is a way to get the best of both worlds - hang artwork (a painting or tapestry) in front of your TV that can be raised when the TV is in use and lowered back down when it is off.
