4 Tips for Choosing the Perfect Designer TV Stand

Television is undoubtedly the undisputed star of the living room. It knows better than anyone how to offer you a moment of relaxation in front of a captivating series or get you excited during a football match. To properly accommodate it and choose the right TV stand, you need to take certain elements into account. Follow these steps to understand better!

Where should I place my TV stand?

Before choosing the type of furniture and its dimensions, make sure the location is perfect. To avoid neck pain and ensure optimal viewing comfort, follow these 3 golden rules:

  • Leave between 2 and 5 meters of distance between the seat and the screen.
  • For height, your eyes should be at mid-screen when you are seated.
  • To avoid reflections, do not place your television facing windows.

    The dimensions of your TV stand must correspond to the available space and the size of your screen. For a harmonious effect, always choose a stand that is slightly longer than your television.

    Designer… and practical TV stands!

    A TV stand is not just for holding the television. It is also a real storage unit that adapts to everyone's needs. Whether you are a film collector or a video game enthusiast, think practical and choose furniture with plenty of storage.

    To visually declutter the space, prefer a closed unit. An open TV stand, on the other hand, can showcase your DVD collection or decorative accessories, while bringing the room to life!

    A TV stand to enhance the living room

    As a central element of the living room, the TV stand draws the eye: well-chosen, it gives character to the room! Provided it is in harmony with the rest of the decor... Pay attention to the color of the walls and the existing furniture.

    Why not match your armchairs with colorful drawers? Another option is to add knick-knacks to echo the colors.

    Everyone has their own style of designer TV stand! For a cozy atmosphere, opt for Scandinavian or pine-style furniture. Want sobriety and elegance? Prefer black instead!

    Which material should I choose?

    The choice of material is a question of aesthetics, but also of durability. Oak or teak TV stands are not only elegant but also robust and resistant. The material of your furniture also plays a role in the atmosphere of the living room.

    Which material should I choose?

    Very trendy, wood brings warmth and naturally contributes to the cozy atmosphere of the room. Conversely, metal gives a more modern, designer look. Obviously, the material of your furniture can influence its price. Very beautiful imitations can delight tighter budgets!

    Follow all these tips and you will find in a blink of an eye the TV stand with the perfect design that will enhance your living room!
