Hiding TVs – the 10 best ideas

Watching an exciting film with your favorite person or watching series with a few friends is a part of it for many at the weekend. But the everyday sight of the TV is a disturbing factor for some in the otherwise cozy living room. If you find yourself in it, we will present ten different ways you can hide your TV.

Hiding TV: the 10 best ideas

Germans (between 14 and 49 years of age) watch television on average for 160 minutes a day – and with the help of our tips it can disappear during the break:

1. TV in the closet

The TV in the closet is probably the classic hiding place. Doors open, TV on, film over, TV off and doors closed. So easy!

2. TV set behind sliding doors

An alternative to a classic TV cabinet is a construction with sliding doors. This can be a wall unit, but also a half-open shelf in which the television is integrated.

3. TV lift

With a TV lift, the TV disappears into the recess during the pause – a chic sideboard remains:

4. Image hiding

It works the other way around: the television does not submerge, but with the help of an electrical construction an image moves directly over the screen!

5. Pull-out card

Without a technical chichi, the TV disappears behind a pull-out card, a stylish tapestry or a practical pull-out roller blind:

6. Hinged frame

The device is cleverly hidden behind a fold-out frame, whether the door or doors can be opened upwards or to the side is irrelevant, the main thing is that it looks really chic in the end, like this example:

7. Make focus

A completely different approach: don't hide the screen, but skilfully stage it! With a chic photo gallery, atmospheric backlighting or a chic picture frame, you can do it in no time.

Cinema feeling in the living room comes up with a projector – goodbye to TV! With a receiver or computer and internet access, you can watch exciting films and series on a screen – or simply on the wall!
