Knickknacks scattered around a room look more like clutter and tends to lose their importance. When grouped together they make a statement and become more relevant to the homeowner.
Small Wonder
Workshop/APD
Use several shelves together to cover the full wall above the TV, and shorter lengths beside it; cabinets below provide closed storage for media and extra cords. Positioning the screen off-center looks fresh and can actually be more functional than a centered TV, depending on your seating arrangement.

How to maximize your living room for a 4K TV and home cinema
It's time to move the furniture, people
(Image: © Shutterstock)
Whether you've just bought a new 4K TV, or you're stuck indoors with your current one and want to find out if you're making the most of it, we'ere here to tell you that there's more to a perfect home cinema setup than just sticking a television on the counter or wall.
Don't get us wrong: having a TV with a razor-sharp 4K resolution (if not even an 8K resolution) and the eye-popping colors of HDR (high dynamic range) is certainly a good start.
However, when it comes to deciding how far away to keep all of your furniture, how the lighting in your room affects the picture, and all sorts of other practical points that can dramatically change your viewing experience, it can be hard to know exactly what to do. That's where we come in.
This guide will take you through everything you need to consider when setting up your living room – or any room – for your 4K TV. Once that's done, we have a separate guide to calibrating your TV for the perfect picture.
Don't have a 4K TV yet? Check out one of the best 65-inch 4K TVs below:

This may seem an obvious point, but the distance at which you sit makes a huge difference to the quality of the TV picture.
That's more of an issue with Full HD televisions, given how clearly you can see its pixels close up – but the increased detail of 4K means you can sit closer without that detail decreasing.
Since it’s unlikely you can easily re-position your sofa, it’s much easier to find the correct TV screen size for your room before you make a purchase. While for HD TVs the rule of thumb is to sit about 1.5 times the screen’s diagonal measurement away from the set, for 4K TVs that figure is reduced by half.

How could the increased resolution of a 4K TV affect what it should sit on? Since a higher resolution is a tough visual sell in the store, TV manufacturers have sought to make them look irresistibly different.
They may be super-slim, but in 4K, bigger is definitely better, and 4K TVs tend to have a larger footprint than Full HD TVs. That certainly applies to a curved TV, which is also only going to be more immersive if it’s a giant-sized example – say, 65-inches in diameter. That has obvious repercussions for its footprint.
Another reason why the purchase of any 4K TV is likely to mean you needed to buy AV furniture with a larger surface area is the width of the support. With the arrival of 4K TVs, PC monitor-style desktop stands are out, and feet far on each end of the TV are in. The end result is that your new 4K TV will likely be wider than your existing AV furniture.
Check out these TV stands to house your new television.

‘Curved like your eyes’. Oh dear, did you fall for the marketing and go for a 4K TV with a bend? Though they’re sold as an easy way of creating a more immersive viewing experience, the angle of the curve is so small that such TVs can bring more cons than pros (unless you live in a lighthouse).
The most obvious issue is that curved TVs are difficult to hang on a wall. It’s not impossible to do – and some curved TVs do have the same industry-standard VESA fixings on the rear to attach to a wall-mount – but it can look pretty weird.
However, the biggest problems for rooms with curved TVs are reflections and distortion. The former can be lessened by positioning the TV away from windows and lamps, the latter by watching from the straight-on sweet-spot rather than from an angle.

Whatever mood lighting you have in your living room, the arrival of a 4K TV is going to change everything. Almost all 4K TVs are also HDR-ready, which means they can reach 1,000 nits (the exception being 4K OLED TVs). Now that’s bright.
You might think that watching in a blackout is the ideal scenario for viewing but in practice that means tired eyes and reduced contrast. Since your eyes average-out contrast in light levels, watching a very bright TV in a very dark room actually lessens the impact of what’s on screen.
For instance, you’ll quickly notice that the ‘blackest-ever blacks’ claim of the TV manufacturer was pure hype; even high-end 4K LED TVs have grey-looking black in a blackout.
The answer is to put a subtle light source near your TV, thereby increasing your perception of contrast. Experiment with putting a soft lamp alongside, but just behind your TV (thereby avoiding reflections). Or you could invest in a Philips Ambilight TV, which emits light from behind the TV to purposely lessen eyestrain and increase contrast.

Who has a spare room to create a customised home cinema or home theater? Very few, but it’s possible to plan in detail how a living room's design can flexibly adapt to some of the necessities of 4K.
A good way to maximise 4K is to keep out as much daylight as possible by using blackout curtains if you’re planning to watch HDR material on a bright sunny day. However, a complete blackout isn’t the optimum condition for HDR, and you can control the ambient light levels better by installing a dimmer switch for the living room’s main light.
It’s even possible to buy remote control versions that can be gradually dimmed from a universal remote control.
If you really want to stick to the ‘closer is better’ mantra for 4K material, consider putting either your TV on AV furniture or cinema chairs on wheels so you can bring them closer. Is that going too far? Perhaps, but if SD, HD and 4K are equal parts of your TV’s diet and you’re after perfection, it pays to be adaptable.

Do you need an Ultra HD Blu-ray player? They're harder to justify at a time when TV streaming services like Netflix and Disney Plus stream in 4K – but you won't get the same consistent video quality over internet as with a physical disc spinner.
It's worth keeping in mind that games consoles like the Xbox One S or Xbox One X feature UHD Blu-ray drives, meaning you can play DVDs and Blu-rays without any buffering or sudden drops in quality due to a slow internet connection.
If you do opt for a Blu-ray player or console, it's worth thinking practically about where to house it – say, on a counter or shelf under the television, or somewhere a bit more out of sight.

On a similar note, if you do want to make the most of your 4K TV, it won't hurt being able to stream 4K content too.
Netflix has a Premium pricing plan for 4K HDR playback (with support for Dolby Vision HDR too), while Amazon Prime Video and Disney Plus both support 4K playback within their basic price plans.
Hulu, HBO Now, and Apple TV Plus all support 4K too.
In the age of Covid-19, some of these services are restricting video resolution, however, so keep in mind that you may not be able to consistently benefit from 4K streaming in 2020.

Although the built-in speakers for 4K TVs can’t usually handle it, object-based immersive sound is central to the specification for Ultra HD Blu-ray discs.
One of these formats is Dolby Atmos, which uses a 7 or 5.1.2 system that provides audio at different levels to create a 360-degree effect that better apes reality. That’s very different from the 5.1 system that home cinema used to be based around, and that has ramifications for your living room.
For optimum audio, you'll require a Dolby Atoms-compatible AV receiver and array of speakers to arrange around the room – including some mounted above the television. But you can also get a simpler all-in-one soundbar or pair of Dolby Atmos speakers, which will still be able to give a convincing surround sound effect.

Although the rival object-based audio format on Ultra HD Blu-ray discs, DTS:X, is broadly similar to Dolby Atmos, it’s favored by some for two reasons.
As well as usually having higher bit rates and, therefore, more detail, the ideal DTS:X set-ups rely more on height channels.
That’s a bit of a problem for the clean lines of a living room because with DTS:X, the more ceiling speakers you have, the more effective it is. But,
However, there's no need to get carried away; DTS:X is designed to adapt to whatever speakers are present. The soundbar below from Samsung – the HW-90R – supports both Dolby Atmos and DTS:X too.

At what height to hang the TV on the wall in the bedroom? How to hang a TV on the wall? Instructions for mounting the TV.
The dream came true! A modern flat LED TV has been purchased! Now you can watch movies in high definition, use the Internet and turn it into a center of home entertainment. Only one question remains unresolved - how to choose the right place and at what height to hang the TV on the wall. At first glance, the questions are simple, but, as practice shows, the convenience and comfort of viewing it depends on the correct installation of the TV panel. If mistakes are made, achieving the full picture and sound quality is often difficult.
The fact is that at present, people watch TV on average at least three to four hours a day, not counting those options when TV just works in the background.
And on weekends, the time spent near the screen increases significantly. And this applies to both adults and children. That is why errors during its installation can cause various inconveniences and even lead to health problems.
Incorrect installation of the TV can lead to the following consequences.
The screen is too high - fatigue sets in quickly, the head is in an unnatural position, the neck muscles are tense all the time, headaches and even muscle spasms occur.
The screen is too low - the head is lowered all the time, a feeling of discomfort quickly arises, headaches may appear.
There are a number of other factors that affect the choice of location and at what height it is better to place the TV.
The vast majority of modern TVs are equipped with wall mount systems. And that's great. In this case, a flat-screen TV on the wall practically does not take up space and significantly saves free space, which is especially true for most modern apartments.
Today, it is the TV wall mount option that has gained immense popularity for decorating modern interiors.
However, there is also a reverse side of the coin. After all, with a wall mount, changing the location of the TV on the wall is fraught with difficulties: sealing old mounting holes, drilling new ones, moving the brackets that hold the TV on the wall. That is why the questions at what height to hang TV on the walls in rooms of different functionality should be given maximum attention.
Calculation of the minimum distance from the TV screen to the viewer and the height above the floor
To calculate at what height from the floor to hang the TV, experts advise first determining the distance from the TV to the viewer. To calculate the distance, the formula is used:
L = kD
In her
L is the distance from the screen;
D - TV diagonal size;
k is a coefficient depending on the resolution of the TV screen: for HD its value is 2.
3, for Full HD resolution it is 1.56 and for UHD it is 0.7.
For example, a Full HD TV with a screen diagonal of 42 inches was purchased. To convert inches to centimeters, multiply by 2.54.
42 x 2.54 = 106.68 cm.
Now let's use the formula:
L = 1.56 x 106.68 = 166.42 cm.
The mounting height is calculated based on the distance obtained by drawing a conditional parallel to the floor segment from the viewer's eyes to the wall on which it is planned to mount the TV. At this point, you need to position the center of the screen. And the beam from the resulting horizon, deflected upward by 20 °, will show the place where its upper edge should be located.
All calculations given are approximate. Also, keep in mind that these are minimum distances. In practice, they turn out to be much more. At what height the TV should be placed on the wall is also influenced by many other factors, such as, for example, the location of the window from which direct sunlight enters, the height of the places from which the viewing will be carried out, the height of the audience, the surrounding furniture, and even the style of the interior of the room.
However, at the same time, medical experts advise everyone to strictly adhere to the distance from the viewer to the TV screen and a height of about 135 centimeters to the center of the TV and at least 75 centimeters to the bottom edge of the equipment.
At what level should the TV be hung in the living room?
All of the above requirements primarily apply to the living room (hall) - a place designed to meet guests and relax the whole family. This takes into account the features of the room and furniture. The main thing to understand is that several people from different places can watch TV in the living room at once, so you should try to hang the TV so that all viewers are comfortable. As a rule, the optimal height is a value from 1.2 to 1.4 meters.
With interesting practical experience on how to place a TV on the wall in the living room so that everyone can watch it comfortably, some users who had to deal with this problem share. They claim that a piece of paper or a poster the size of a TV can help.
It is attached to the wall with mounting tape and looked from different points to see if it is conveniently placed. This method allows you to change and adjust the attachment point as many times as you like until the ideal option is found. If the most suitable place is found in such an empirical way, then a modern TV will reveal its best qualities to each viewer in the form of a juicy, clear image and good sound.
Another tip, at what height is it better to hang the TV in the living room. In recent years, large screen televisions have been used for interactive video games that are controlled by gestures.
For example, tennis and other sports simulators, various fighting games, music and dance game projects. Naturally, in this case, the TV should be fixed a little higher, so that it is comfortable for both the player, who is standing in front of the TV screen, and the audience sitting on the sofa.
At what height should the TV be hung on the wall in the bedroom?
Despite the fact that doctors recommend watching TV for a strictly defined amount of time and in no case in a lying position, TV in the bedroom has become widespread in recent years.
That is why the question at what height the TV should be fixed on the wall in the bedroom is always relevant.
It should be noted that installing a TV on the wall in the bedroom has its own characteristics, which are as follows. Firstly, it is recommended to slightly increase the distance from the TV to the viewer. The optimal distance is considered to be at least four diagonals of the screen. Secondly, choosing a TV in the bedroom does not have to chase large sizes. It is enough to purchase a TV with HD or Full HD resolution with a small screen. It will be quite enough for comfortable viewing in a small bedroom. This will reduce eye strain. And finally, if the bedroom has a high bed, then the height from the floor should be about 1-1.3 meters. At the same time, viewing convenience will be added by a mounting bracket with the ability to tilt or rotate the TV, which will always allow you to choose the optimal angle for comfortable viewing.
The position of the viewer must also be taken into account.
If you intend to watch TV reclining and lying down, then the height from the floor should be significantly increased.
You can even use a special ceiling bracket. In this case, for comfortable viewing without color loss, tilting the TV is a must. However, there is also a limitation here. The angle of inclination of the screen surface should not exceed 30°.
An interesting technique for determining what height the TV should be in the bedroom is offered by some experts. In order to find out the exact location of the TV screen, you should lie on the bed, relax with your eyes closed, and after a couple of minutes look at the wall. The place that the eye immediately fell on determines the center of the TV screen. Experts say that this technique is much more efficient than calculations using formulas and correction factors.
TV in the kitchen
At what height to hang the TV in the kitchen? This is the question to which the most conflicting answers are given.
It all depends on what function is assigned to TV in the kitchen. It is one thing when the kitchen in the apartment is a purely cooking room and the TV is assigned the role of background broadcasting, but it is quite another when it is turned into a kitchen-studio or kitchen-dining room, where all the household members gather to eat. In the first case, when choosing the height of the TV receiver, one should focus on the height of a standing person, and in the second, find a place for him using methods suitable for the living room, only taking into account the height of the people sitting at the table.
In addition, security issues, both for those around you and for the TV itself, come to the fore when choosing a place for TV. You can not hang it near the stove, oven, sink. At the same time, it is advisable to avoid sunlight on the screen, which creates reflections and glare, which can be eliminated by placing the TV away from windows and balcony doors or by using curtains.
Of course, it is extremely difficult to satisfy all these conditions.
Therefore, swivel brackets will come in handy. These TV wall mounts are highly durable and provide enough freedom to choose the best viewing position.
TV in the nursery
The main conditions when choosing a place for TV in the nursery is to ensure the safety of the child. Considering that the nursery is both a sleeping room and a playroom, the TV should be installed so that the baby cannot touch it. And this means that it should be slightly higher than the calculations. In this option, the main role will be played by the ability to set the angle of inclination.
An important role in choosing a place for TV in the nursery is played by the presence of furniture and the growth of the child himself. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that TV viewing can be carried out both from a bed or from a table, and from the floor. Often children watch TV in their room even while standing. Therefore, no compromises can be made in this matter.
As a conclusion, it should be noted that the questions at what height the TV should be located in rooms of different functionality are not so simple.
There are many initial conditions that need to be taken into account to solve these problems, but the main thing is safety and viewing comfort. If these conditions are met, then we can assume that you have coped with the choice of a place for TV.

How high should the TV be hung from the floor? The opinions of family members often diverge, or the owner himself is lost among two or three options. In reality, there are no strict requirements and rules in this regard, but there are a number of useful recommendations based on medical research and the technical features of the devices. It does not matter how many TVs are in your house, it is important in which room you plan to install them: in the bedroom, kitchen, living room. Based on the purpose of the premises, you can begin to calculate the ideal place for the panel.

What affects the height of the TV on the wall
Several factors influence the choice of a place on the wall for hanging a large screen and height relative to the floor. The purpose of the room is taken into account: this is a living room, a bedroom or a kitchen and the existing furnishings. After all, it is important that the TV on the wall harmoniously fit into the interior, and does not spoil the aesthetics of the wall with wires. The main criteria in deciding the choice of placement of the TV in height are the dimensions of the room and the panel itself.
Area of the room
The area of a house or apartment is one of the main criteria that influences the choice of a place to install a TV and the dimensions of the device purchased for a particular room.
In a one-room apartment, for comfortable viewing, the TV panel should be placed in a diagonal direction from the center of the sofa, bed or sofa. This approach allows you to see what is happening on the screen from anywhere in the room.
It is important that there is a power source in the immediate vicinity of the selected location. The distance to the outlet, preferably a steam room, should not exceed 45 cm. It is also important that the TV panel is not opposite the window. Otherwise, glare on the screen will interfere with viewing.
Screen dimensions
Placement is determined in direct proportion to the diagonal of the TV screen and the distance to the device. The larger the TV panel, the longer must be the distance to the seating of the viewers, including the height in relation to the floor.
Moving away from the large screen narrows the viewing angle . The interior items on which households sit down to watch TV programs affect the completeness of the review.
You should take into account the height of chairs, armchairs, a sofa, as well as the arrangement of other furniture in the room, choosing the optimal place on the wall for the TV.
Methods for determining the height from the floor to the TV panel
Having previously decided on the place on the wall, you can begin to choose the height of the mount relative to the floor. You can choose the mounting location of the bracket, focusing on the feeling of comfort and aesthetics, or relying on mathematical calculations.
According to my own feelings
The method is simple, implemented collectively by adult households. One needs to sit comfortably on the couch, close his eyes for a few seconds, and open them, look at the wall. In the place where the "viewer" is looking, the second one can mount the bracket. It would be useful to listen to the comments: to the left, to the right, a little higher or lower.
Important! With this method of height selection, the parameters of the distance from the viewing area to the screen and the diagonal of the TV, as well as the viewing angle are not taken into account.
So there is a possibility of eye fatigue.
Mathematical calculations
The calculation is carried out taking into account the recommendations of doctors: the screen should be located at the viewer's eye level . Otherwise, image distortion will be observed. Also, the formula includes a coefficient that determines the distance from the wall where the TV is planned to be placed to the viewing point. The distance is determined by multiplying the coefficient by the diagonal length of the TV panel.
The value of the multiplier depends on the type of matrix (LCD or plasma) and resolution (720p or 1080p). For LED screens with a resolution of 720p, a multiplier of 2.3 is used, and for a resolution of 1080p, a multiplier of 1.6. According to mathematical calculations, the optimal height for different conditions varies from 1 to 1.3 meters.
Living room
In the living room, the owners receive friends, relatives, celebrate family holidays. In a word, this is where people spend most of their time, which means they watch TV from different points: from behind a desk, from armchairs, from a sofa or at a dining table. Conventionally, the optimal point of the middle of the screen is at a distance of 70 to 175 cm from the floor, and in most cases at a height of 1.2 - 1.4 m. table or sofa If in the vast majority of cases you plan to watch movies or TV shows while sitting on the couch, then the height should be less, if from behind the table - then higher. Doctors recommend the following. Please note! Opposite the eyes of a person should be the center of the monitor or its upper third. It should not be overlooked that television can have a negative effect on the eyesight of both adults and children. The cervical spine is also involved in the viewing process. Therefore, the advice of experts on the recommended distance from the eyes to the screen should be taken into account. Often the answer to the question is found by placing a panel in in a special niche in furniture . This is not always correct: with this arrangement, the height of the TV may be lower / higher than necessary if the level of the sofa does not meet the standard, plus it is important to take into account your own height. It will not be superfluous to experience for yourself how comfortable such a height will be. The height of the LCD panel in the bedroom depends on the arrangement and parameters of the furniture, the ideal option is to place the TV on the wall, perpendicular to the bed . Thus, it is convenient to watch movies in a lying or half-sitting position. But parallel installation is also allowed. The center of the screen should be in front of the eyes when viewing from a seated position, but note that the screen should be tilted about 30°. A distinctive feature of liquid crystal monitors is that when viewed at an angle, contrast is lost, the image darkens, which has a negative effect on vision. Tilt panel to provide a direct view from a lying or semi-sitting position. Important to know! For maximum comfort, choose adjustable arms. Use them to tilt the panel or turn the TV left or right. If you're thinking of a little rearrangement, or like to watch movies in different positions, the screen direction can be easily adjusted. TFT LCD panels have a fairly wide viewing angle , but are sensitive to vertical deviation: a low position increases the contrast and darkens the screen, while a too high position brightens the screen. As for the nursery, when calculating how high to hang the TV, rely on the height of the child. The panel must be hung in such a way that during the game the little ones do not hit it with their heads or hands, this can injure children, as well as ruin an expensive item. The younger generation's active lifestyle means watching TV from different angles: from the floor, from the bed, from behind a desk or even while standing. Therefore, it is difficult to calculate the optimal position; the individual situation of the room plays an important role here. It is important to take into account the angle of inclination so that the contrast and darkening of the picture do not harm children's eyes and do not create stress on the spine, which is not yet strong at a young age. A good placement option within the kitchen is selected based on its area and purpose. If the room is small, it is most likely used for cooking and eating for one or two people. Here the device often serves as a background. A spacious kitchen can include a dining area, a sofa, a cabinet, which allows you to watch programs for a long time. There are three optimal places: on the bedside table; on the wall when the height of the center of the TV is between 1.2 m - 1.5 m from the floor; above the refrigerator. Is it possible to put the TV directly on the refrigerator? This neighborhood has certain nuances. It is also important to note: Do not forget about your own preferences or habits. Such subjective problems cannot be solved based only on what experts and electronics manufacturers recommend.
