20 Small TV Room Ideas That Balance Style with Functionality

There was a time when the television was the focal point of the living room, with every piece of furniture being arranged around it! Many of us TV buffs still tend to do the same, but the modern trend has been to take the TV away from the living room or to hide it completely. While some have taken it to the bedroom and the family room, others have opted for gorgeous and at times stunning media rooms and home theaters that blow you away. It is either an over-the-top home theater, media room or the hidden TV nook that grace most contemporary interiors. So, when did the good ol’ TV room start becoming unnecessary? Either way, we’d love to share some of our top small TV room decorating ideas.

Part of the issue with dedicated TV rooms is technology and how ‘media centers’ complete with loads of electronic goodies have replaced the lone TV with cable. Then there is the reduction in costs, which has made the idea of a dedicated home theater or a cool man cave far more accessible for everyone.

Multifunctional TV Rooms

Anytime we talk about a dedicated room that only serves a single purpose, we can hear many of our readers cringe in the distance. It is indeed an era of multitasking, and people expect their home to do pretty much the same. Since most of us spend barely an hour or two on weekdays hooked to our favorite shows, it does make sense to utilize it fully by turning it into a home workspace, library, reading nook or even the children’s playroom.

Just put in a stylish sofa bed or even a Murphy bed unit, and it will also serve as a great guest room when you have friends and family over for the weekend. This approach takes the TV out of the living room and bedroom, even while fully utilizing the small additional room.

Choosing the Right Décor For TV Rooms

We are talking about small rooms with limited space here, which means that the décor choices you make will be absolutely vital. A small TV room with a modest television set, maybe a Blu-ray player and additional gadgets requires very little in terms of actual square footage. With contemporary wall-mounted sets and sleek entertainment units, even the tiniest nooks can be turned into a cozy room that serves you well. Add a cool sectional or a plush couch to maximize seating in the room, and you can even throw in a couple of ottomans for kids.

Built-in, custom banquette seating saves space and also offers additional storage options, while an iconic piece like the Eames Lounger or the Bubble chair will bring both style and finesse to the room. The choices you make depend on the number of members in your family, the purpose of the room (obviously multipurpose rooms will need additional décor) and the size of the room itself. The neutral backdrop paired with bright and colorful furnishings leaves you with a playful vibe.

TV Rooms That Play with Space & Dynamics

Taking the television away from the living room actually helps not just improve the aesthetics of the room, but also saves you plenty of time. Most of us spend countless hours lazing in front of the TV just because it is there, and often it is left running in the background for no reason. Having a dedicated TV room solves this problem, and this is precisely the reason why even homes with lavish living spaces and ample square footage now consider this layout for smaller TV rooms.

Once you have decided on the space for the TV room, pick décor that is visually proportional to the size of the room and complements its style. Basements and attics benefit from low-slung décor with a smaller footprint, while larger rooms can accommodate bigger pieces.

Lighting and Color Inspiration for TV rooms

Lighting is an essential component of any entertainment room, and getting it right in the small room can be a challenge at times. Dedicated TV rooms can have a darker, moodier ambiance that gives the impression of a more luxurious home theater. Colors such as black, dark gray and deep violet on the walls along with smart ambient lighting work best in such rooms. If the TV room is a part of the larger living space or is utilized as a home office, laundry, guest space or playroom, then pick a lighter backdrop and a more cheerful ambiance. Style is another consideration, and with a small TV room you can try out fun themes and styles that move away from the one used in the rest of the home.

If your TV sits in the living room or bedroom, then opting for a separate TV room is a smart idea, no matter how small it is. The change in lifestyle that it brings is something you will notice almost instantly!

10 Small Living Room With TV Ideas That We Want to Copy ASAP

Decorating a small living room with TV can be challenging. A living room needs to be multi-functional without appearing cluttered. It is essential in a small living space to streamline your furniture and efficiently use vertical space. The ten small living room decorating ideas detailed below will help you revamp your living room and keep your TV from becoming an eyesore.

Small Living Room Ideas with TV

1 Built-in television nook

Some living rooms can be extremely narrow. Even placing the TV on the wall can make your small living room feel claustrophobic. To create more space, you can create a nook in the wall where the television can sit. Without the tv protruding from the wall, your room appears sleeker and more sophisticated.

2 Wall unit TV stand

Creating a built-in shelving unit that spans an entire wall will give you valuable storage space while taking the primary focus off the TV. It makes the television part of the overall aesthetic rather than an eyesore. Colorful works of art and curated collections on the surrounding shelves provide added visual stimulation. These objects draw the eye away from the television.

3 Corner TV

Every square foot of space is essential in a small living room. Sometimes the only space available to place your TV is in a corner. Situating the TV on an adjustable wall stand allows you to angle your TV in your small living room.

4 Narrow stand

Small living rooms may need to serve as a place to hold your purse or keys as the home may lack a proper entrance way. Small drawers can keep things like keys and sunglasses stored out of sight. The ledge of the table works well to sit the television while keeping everything streamlined.

5 Upright TV stand

When there is not much space to put a television, you can hang it on the wall. Upright TV stands allow you more floor space and better mobility. Hide cords in the wall to produce a minimal look.

6 Dedicated media stand

Many decorating ideas for small living rooms involve hanging the TV on the wall. When you have many different media systems that need to connect to the TV, you must deal with multiple cords. Cords hanging down the wall can look unsightly. Instead, it is better to use a media stand to hide these cords.

To accommodate your media storage, you will want to make sure the rest of the furniture does not overtake the room. A smaller couch or sectional may need to appear in the room.

7 TV and computer

Consider using a desk near your television. You can hide your keyboard in the desk shelf. Keeping the desk uncluttered will help give the room a more polished look.

8 Room ambiance

Most small rooms will benefit from added lighting. If natural light is limited, you can add pot lights or lamps throughout the room. A lighter room will make a small room appear brighter. If your living room is not exclusively a television room, you may want to stick to lighter wall colors. Choosing to add more reflexive surfaces like mirrors will help reflect the light in the room.

A dedicated television room can be darker. A dark grey can give the living room a moodier vibe. If the living room is separate from the rest of the home, a darker color may work well. In contrast, open-spaced areas look better with lighter walls.

9 Add a discreet panel

A large television can easily overwhelm a small living room. You can mask the television’s appearance by placing it on a shelf with a sliding panel. Slide the door closed when not using the television and other media equipment.

10 Consider the size

A small living room needs to have proportional furniture. A large television becomes the focus of the room. A smaller TV that does not take up the bulk of one wall has a better chance of being seen as a part of the living room rather than its chief focus.

Centering a television on the wall and surrounding it with bookcases or art can help make the room more cohesive. Choosing a monochromatic color pallet for the living room helps your television blend in.

Conclusion

In comparison, if you want your television to stand out, try painting the wall it hangs on in a bold color. Those whose primary living room function is to watch television may choose this option.

come dare profondità ad una stanza ? L'applicazione di una grafica che dia un senso di continuità anche oltre i muri, è la soluzione che abbiamo adottato per questo progetto. L'inserimento di una cabina armadio, ha sicuramente portato alla rinuncia di un maggior spazio davanti alla zona letto, quindi abbiamo optato per l'inserimento di questa grafica che desse la sensazione di apertura, con una visuale di maggiore profondità, oltre che regalare un grande impatto visivo e dare ad una semplice camera d aletto, un tocco di carattere in più.
