TV in the living room: photo, choice of location, wall design options in the hall around the TV

Placement Tips

Key recommendations:

• In a narrow or long hall, you need to be especially careful when choosing the diagonal of a TV device, since if the screen is too large, then when viewing from such a close distance, discomfort for the eyes may occur. Therefore, in such a living room, it is recommended to place the TV model on the wall opposite the window, while using blackout curtains or blinds.
• When choosing a body color, you should take into account the main colors of the design and elements of the room. This will create the most harmonious combination.
• According to Feng Shui, it is believed that if you place a TV panel in the southeastern part of the hall, you can stimulate the strengthening of family relations. When installing a TV in the southwestern part of the room, it turns out to attract wealth to the house, and when located in the south, to expand the circle of friends.
• For a small room, it is advisable to choose not too oversized models with wall or ceiling mounts.
