General rules
Choosing your own version of the design of the television zone, you will have to build on the characteristics of a particular room, including its footage, the location of windows, doorways, the presence of niches, ledges, balcony doors and other complicating elements. In addition, there are a few ground rules to keep in mind.
- The smaller the room, the less space is allocated for the television area. In a small room, it should be small, otherwise visual imbalance is possible.
- The size of the TV must correspond to a specific section of the video zone. It should be neither too small nor overly large.
- The distance from the TV set to the human eyes should be at least 2.5 m. The smaller it is, the greater the eye strain.
- The TV area should be correctly illuminated: the lighting should be muted background. Glare and direct sunlight falling on the screen are excluded.
- The height of the TV should be comfortable for the eyes of the household. Do not raise it too high: the television panel should be located at eye level.
- You cannot place the video zone opposite the window. This will create unnecessary reflections on the screen and interfere with your viewing while you are at rest.
- It is strictly forbidden to hang the TV over the fireplace.Heat and soot spoil the electronics, and the seated person will have to hold their head high.

Accommodation options
Depending on the type of room, the video zone TV can be located:
- on the wall at the location of the power source, if a part of the wall opposite the sofa is allocated for the zone;
- in the corner opposite the sofa, which is important for small living rooms, optimizes the space and forms an unusual stylistic move;
- in a niche, rationally using the space on an empty wall, thereby diluting the standard design of the living room;
- by the window (for example, in the gap between the walls between the windows), placing it on the chest of drawers or placing it on the wall itself;
- under the stairs, which is important for dwellings with a special layout, in which it is necessary to rationally use the space under the stairs;
- in the center of the room in the form of a panel - a focal point that attracts attention;
- on the partition zoning the space, which can significantly save the usable area of the room;
- on a pipe running from floor to ceiling, creating a special design for the video zone;
- in the furniture composition of a rack, pencil case, wardrobe or modular wall, providing for the addition of the zone with the necessary elements.

Registration
The modern design of the living room TV area should be part of the interior composition of the entire room. It should be designed in the same style and color scheme. Someone prefers to disguise the technique as a painting with dynamically changing images of paintings by famous artists, or creates their own gallery of their family photographs. Passepartout is created with different frames and modes, adjusting the model to a specific interior design palette.

The design of the TV area in the living room can be very diverse. For example, you can equip an impromptu home theater by placing it in front of a large sofa and comfortable armchairs. At the same time, the cinema can be located in a partition with niches specially created for TV and speakers.
Ideally, the composition of the TV zone should be symmetrical, and the color of the partition should be light, which is good for the perception of space and not so harmful to the eyes.

You can use a curbstone to decorate a video zone by placing a TV on it and adding, for example, a vase with a plant, as well as a floor lamp. Depending on the style of the interior, you can decorate the video zone with paintings, panels, a console shelf with framed photographs, or a couple of decorative figurines.
An unusual solution would be to create a TV zone with the help of shallow hinged drawers of a laconic design, into which small furnishings can be removed. For example, you can build a rectangular box-zone, put a TV on its lower part. On the sides, you can arrange the necessary players and create narrow shelving-type shelves for books.

Making a niche will require the manufacture of a plasterboard box. Given the shallow depth, the box will not take up much space, but due to the flexibility and pliability of drywall, it will allow you to create a unique design structure. It can be laconic with straight lines and symmetry, geometric, as well as smooth outlines.
If desired, you can create a niche with sliding doors that disguise the home theater into the wall.

Someone prefers to install a plasma panel in headsets for living rooms, equipped with dedicated sections that provide for covering the TV from prying eyes. You can decorate the area using a half-wall bedside table and a wall panel with console shelves. It is preferable to take a curbstone with closed shelves, which can be used for storing any things.

You can make the television zone in the hall combined, using different elements for its design (for example, shelves, a niche, racks at the same time). You can hang the TV on the wall, place a large wall shelf under it and illuminate it from below.

When choosing your type of design, it is worth considering: the expressiveness of design is achieved by the dosage of the constituent elements of the video zone.
A living room with a teleson can be arranged, using the podium. This design looks stylish and impressive. In addition, this solution also carries a functional load, since the podium in the hall can be used as a storage system for any things. For example, it will be possible to remove the bedding used in the event of the arrival of guests who need to be accommodated for the night.

Accentuating the wall
A great way to accentuate your video space is the use of wall cladding, contrasting with the main background design of the living room interior. It is important to consider that this is best done when the room is spacious. This will make the accent look aesthetically pleasing without creating ripples in the eyes.

For example, The best options for highlighting the TV area in the living room will be wall cladding with wallpaper or stone. It is easier to highlight the wall on which the TV is located: it is enough to select the panels in a single interior style, keeping their color taking into account the general background solution of the room. If monophonic wallpapers are glued everywhere in the living room, the video zone can be distinguished with canvases with a discreet print.

It is undesirable to glue excessively colorful wallpaper on this part of the wall or partitions: they will distract the eye, preventing it from focusing on the image inside the plasma. Watching movies or programs with such an accent wall will not be the most comfortable. Moreover, when choosing wallpaper with a print, one must not forget: the presence of a picture implies the dosage of the elements used in the design of the video zone.

Ideally, you should take as a basis the dimness of the picture and the emphasis on contrasting colors: the print can be conveyed by silk-screen printing or an texture that imitates any material (for example, drapery, animal skin, stone, ordinary or Venetian plaster, concrete). For other types of cladding, stone cladding, including torn stone cladding, can be an excellent way to highlight the TV area.

This design is often performed with an imitation of a fireplace ledge. However, the stone looks great on a simple wall without a fireplace or other decorative elements. Given the complexity of mounting a TV on a wall with such a cladding, you can install the plasma on a long and narrow cabinet or make it suspended on a special panel or pipe... With additional lighting in the form of creative lamps, this design will look very impressive.
If the walls are plain, but the TV is planned to be installed on a ledge between two wall niches, you can mark the boundaries of this video zone with a stone and on the sides, by lining the niches themselves. The composition can be supplemented with a false fireplace or even a curbstone, a shelf, floor vases, or even a chest of drawers.

The accentuation of the space with laconic shelves-frames, bearing mainly a decorative load, looks beautiful. In addition, the accent in the form of masonry of relief tiles of a volumetric type looks very unusual.
To create a special atmosphere in such a design, it is quite enough to use a hidden LED lighting, mounted under the ceiling.
