Invisible TV Stands? It is possible
The rapidly decreasing costs of LCD televisions has been the main reason for larger screens for most households. The most common location for these to be placed, estimated at 75%, is above the fireplace in the main room of the household. Because of the increase in size both women and designers have been having stern problems with a 50-70? black glass object as the centrepiece and main point of the living room.
Although it is simply a visual or mechanical change when the TV is hidden, to many it changes the entire atmosphere of the room. Even when the televison display has been turned off, attention is either consciously or unconsciously drawn towards the blank screen. This is not simply a figment of peoples imaginations, it is very real, and it can have a direct effect on both the decoration and atmosphere of the room.
Concealment devices are essentially custom made furniture. Due to both tv sizes and room plans there is not one solution that works for everyone, hence why systems such as this often cost more than the TV itself. The justification lies in that the time, money and creative effort spent in making the room look great is not masked by trying to make a 50″ piece of black glass blend easily into the room.
If you were to do some extensive market research you would see there are a number of different ways to get around this problem. All with certain pros and cons. The most commonly used option is usually a plasma television lift.
A TV lift effectively implements in one both an item of furniture and tv stands. It enables the user the ability to swap between viewing a piece of general furniture or viewing the plasma television. This is done using a remote controlled lifting mechanism which is fitted inside the furniture. Once activated this mechanism will trigger a steel lift to move which in turn will cause the television to gently rise from the furniture and effectively turn it into a television stand.
This operating system solves all the problems faced by a home designer. The rooms look and feel does not have to be compromised, rather modified in a way which cannot be seen. The tv no longer has to be in full view unless you require it to be. As well as this there are security benefits which mean your television is a lot less likely to be taken or broken in the every day hussle around your household.
Conclusion
No matter what efforts television manufacturers put into their aesthetic design, they can’t solve the problem of having a large blank screen dominate a room when the TV is off. It is no surprise then, that demand for concealment solutions has been doubling every year for a while now.
Through learning about concealment products, professionals such as www.tdkjoinery.co.uk can offer the home owner a solution allows a large TV to be hidden within the decor using a TV lift, while maintaining the visual design of the room. It is a win-win situation for both parties.
