Seven Inspirational TV Installations

Wondering whether or not to go through with a TV installation? Let these TV installations inspire you, and give you some ideas to plan your wall.

Careful thought must be applied if you decide to install a television on the wall. It is more than just hanging the TV on the wall, and hiding the cables. TV Installations are statements of elegance when done properly. When televisions are installed on the wall improperly nobody will enjoy the experience. Please take notice that each of these installations have some common elements that you should implement in your installation.

1. Achieving the art gallery effect with your TV installation by playing with height and white space.



This TV installation was contributed to Flickr by Pioneer Great Britain's. You can view this picture and the rest of their photo stream at http://www.flickr.com/photos/pioneergb/.

2. Classic TV Installation Above Fireplace



It's no wonder Whizbang Technologies use this as their staple TV Installation picture. It is a flawless installation where balance was achieved despite the high fireplace. The lack of audio/video presence also ads to the overall clean appearance of the wall.

3. Enhancing your TV Installation by adding framing around your television and compenent shelving.



I found this TV Installation picture at Jason Sewell's Flickr Photostream, and absolutely fell in love with the added border around the television, and the sleek shelving for the components below the television. Inside the stairwell seems distracting, but this is a very well thought out installation.

4. Add flare to your TV Installation with a splash of paint.



All it took was a couple colors of paint and the perfect viewing height to make this minimalist approach magazine ready. I also like that there are no cable boxes, stereo equipment, a/v and electrical cables, etc, trying to still the spotlight.

5. Go minimal with your TV installation.



Another excellent TV installation from Pioneer Great Britain Flickr Photostream/ This is a really good installation. Again, there are no components or cables in the picture, and the wall color and TV height really ads a splash.

6. Who said you cannot do a full wire conceal on a stone fireplace.



I found this camera phone picture on in the Douglasville OLX Classifieds and it shows just enough detail to make this list. The television height is flawless, and the wooden cabinet flanking the fireplace to conceal all of the components is a very nice touch.

7. How not to install a television.



This photo has definitely made it's round on the Internet, I believe I spotted it on digg.com. This should inspire you to not duplicate. You can find this picture at BugLugs Flickr Photstream

This is definitely a good viewing height, and a clean look from the front, but I don't think anyone would want to go through what this installer went through to achieve that look. However, this is very funny to look at.
