TV Wall Design: 5 Ways to Hide the Screen

The Problem

A large dark screen dominates a room visually. These strategies integrate your TV into the decor.

1. Gallery Wall Surround

Frame the TV with art and photos. When off, the eye reads the whole wall as art.

2. Dark Wall Camouflage

Paint the wall behind the TV dark. The black screen blends into the background.

3. Sliding Panel Cover

Install sliding barn doors that conceal the TV completely.

4. Frame TV Mode

Samsung Frame and similar TVs display art when idle.

5. Built-In Niche

Recess the TV into a wall niche with surrounding shelving.
