7 Types of TV Cabinet Design to a Perfect Blend of Function and Style
When it comes to home renovation, many people consider the usefulness of a TV cabinet because each family has different house layouts and needs, leading to varied choices. For families with significant storage needs and insufficient storage space, the TV cabinet can be transformed into a primary storage solution. On the other hand, for individuals who don't require space for gaming consoles, speakers, or decorative items, and have no storage needs, the TV cabinet becomes optional. Ahead, we highlight 7 types of TV cabinets and explain why we love them and the aspects that make them a quality choice for your living room remodel.
1. Integrated Storage TV Cabinet
In recent years, customized TV cabinets have gained significant popularity. Custom-made TV cabinets harmonize with the interior decoration style, presenting a neat and clutter-free appearance that enhances visual aesthetics. They achieve a beautiful effect where 1+1 is greater than 2. Moreover, wall-sized cabinets offer ample storage capacity, becoming a primary storage area in the home. They combine practicality and aesthetics, making them particularly popular in large or essential housing types.
2. Floating TV Cabinet
The essence of this type of TV cabinet lies in the term "floating." It accentuates the trendy and sophisticated feel of the living room decor. Additionally, with no objects or dead corners on the floor, it becomes easier to clean with the help of a robotic vacuum cleaner. Furthermore, by opting for a wall-mounted TV in conjunction with a floating TV cabinet, it enhances the overall sense of classiness in the TV background wall.
3. Floor-level TV Cabinet
Floor-level TV cabinets are placed close to the floor and the wall. They also have no dead corners,
but their height tends to be relatively low. Depending on the materials used, they can be categorized into brick-built and wooden types. In European and American decoration styles, a "false" fireplace design is often incorporated, with the floor-level TV cabinet being a part of the overall design. Moreover, in modern urban styles, floor-level TV cabinets are commonly tiled with ceramic tiles to create a stylish urban atmosphere.
Brick-built Floor-level TV Cabinet: Brick-built floor-level TV cabinets have stone cladding on the surface, creating a classy visual effect with strong decorative appeal. However, they generally lack storage space.
Wooden Floor-level TV Cabinet: Wooden floor-level TV cabinets exhibit a clean and elegant appeal with wooden elements. They also provide storage functionality, making them more practical compared to the brick-built style.
4. Recessed TV Cabinet
Recessed TV cabinets are typically created by utilizing the displacement or thickening of walls. Otherwise, simply digging into the wall would result in insufficient width. The advantage of this design is that it maintains a smooth wall surface without occupying indoor space. It can also fill in irregular or uneven walls, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal.
5. Traditional TV Cabinet (Ready-made TV Cabinet)
Traditional TV cabinets can be classified into low-leg cabinets and high-leg cabinets based on the cabinet feet. When making a purchase, it is generally recommended to opt for high-leg cabinets. The high-leg design elongates the gap between the floor and the main body of the TV cabinet, facilitating easy cleaning and allowing for the entry of robotic vacuum cleaners, thus avoiding dead corners. The advantage of traditional TV cabinets lies in their mobility, as they can be replaced or discarded according to one's needs.
The currently popular colors for traditional TV cabinets include simple natural wood, modern elegant white, and a stable series of wooden colors, all of which are versatile and durable.
6. Low Wall (Half Wall) TV Cabinet
Low wall TV cabinets are commonly seen in uniquely decorated and wide hallway-type spaces. By incorporating personalized designs into the low wall structure, it serves multiple functions, increasing its practicality and enhancing the spatial design and transparency.
7. No TV Cabinet Design
If you feel that you don't require the decorative or storage aspects of a TV cabinet, or if your living room space is narrow, you can consider a design without a TV cabinet. Mount the TV directly on the background wall to reduce the floor space occupied, creating a more spacious environment. However, it is important to consider the placement of power outlets on the background wall and the positioning of the TV set-top box, preferably concealed behind the TV to maintain a tidy and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
