Blending In…

Where should I put the TV? Should I hide it or place it front and center? That nagging dilemma comes up over and over… Besides this question, what color should I get? As if you have a choice…

Television manufacturers keep the options on the market to a bare minimum. They must ALL be in it together. Most of the time it’s Only Black, nothing else, but every once in a while they offer a fleeting silver screen. I got my living room TV during one of those rare occasions, thank goodness. I started with black, but when the silver hit shelves I moved the black one to my bedroom. If only someone would offer a choice. I would pay-up to choose my finish over the standard black – polished metals, brushed, silver, gold, lucite, white, colors. Somebody needs to get creative, break out of the pack, and profit for it. Before Apple, all computers were black.

Whoever designed this room took an interesting approach to integrating the TV - camouflage by distraction. If you install a collage of artwork around the TV, making it one of many framed objects, you won’t even notice it’s there. Smart thinking….it really works!
