Choosing a TV unit is a task that not only involves individual choices but also involves the size of the house, the ambience and a lot of other factors. If you are considering to buy a TV unit, then ensure you go along reading the blog ahead. Happy reading 🙂
A TV unit is a piece that is so important as it fills the major part of the living room and brings out the best look; also, if not chosen properly, it can totally hamper the look of the living room.
WHAT TO CONSIDER?
The following are the things to consider while choosing a TV unit
Size
Colour
Storage
Positioning
Size of the unit
Size of the unit depends on the size of the living room. If your living room is huge and has enough space to have a TV unit, then you can go for any type of TV unit. Typically, the TV unit can occupy 15% of the total living room area space. Anything beyond looks too big. A TV unit that occupies less than 7% living room space is typically the smallest.
Colour of the TV unit
The colour of the TV unit depends on the colour of the living room. Shades like walnut, woods and dark gloss looks great on the lighter living room and the lighter shades and neutrals look great in a dark coloured living room.

STORAGE OF THE UNIT
The Size of the unit depends on the storage needs; if you have a lot of gaming consoles, other accessories to store, then choose a bigger unit with a lot of storage racks and ledges, otherwise choose a unit that has less storage and looks trendy.
If you have more storage, then choose something that has both inner and outer storage. You can stack up your DVD’s on a pair of ledges and things that need inner storage likes additional wires, accessories etc can have closed cabinets for storage.
Have a look at the picture below. This TV unit can allow a lot of storage space.
This TV unit also accommodates a lot of stuff comfortably. Have a look at the ledges as a storage unit.
Positioning
Positioning of the unit depends on the space in the room. Choose always the side of the wall that is empty. Choose the side that is in the centre of the room, so that the surround sound system works well. A tv unit that is placed in the corner makes no sense right?
Go on and get a TV unit where people watch it, not the TV. 😛
