How To Complete A Family Room With Contemporary TV Console Furniture

How To Complete A Family Room With Contemporary TV Console Furniture

By Marci Glover


The family room is a regularly used space for casual entertainment, and a place that people gravitate to after dinner and such. For those reasons, and many more, it must be accommodating to the needs and demands placed on it. Thankfully, there are lots of opportunities to decorate properly and make the most of the space. Much of that comes with the invention of the flatscreen television which takes up little space and can even be mounted on a wall. Aside from this, it could be beautifully incorporated into contemporary TV console furniture.

These pieces complete the space because there is far more attached to a television than just the device itself. For example, other major components that work to enhance the television experience need to be housed somewhere. Too many of these can make space look unattractive, when they are in plain view.

Consider a satellite receiver, a DVD player, the unending DVDs and CDs all visible. That would just make the space look cluttered and messy. Hidden in this console, they make it look organized and neat. Plus, they attract less dust, making regular cleaning easy and quick. The different sizes available can also housed many other items that are typically found in these rooms, like photo albums and collections.

The purpose this type of furniture serves goes beyond the norm. Consider how unattractive and overly cluttered room really is. Once all the clutter is gone, as it does provide good storage depending on its size, there is a world of opportunity to decorate beautifully.

With such a piece in place, people have the opportunity to decorate around it, ensuring great results. From there, place seating in a way that the television is visible from all directions. A great sectional is always a super selection, as it adds more seating to the space, which provides comfort for all. The size of the sectional is dictated by the size of the room, so be careful not to choose anything too large or too small.

The all-important coffee table can be multifunctional, and is an important part of this room. Do not try to match it to the console, as it's not necessary, and often doesn't have the best results. Instead, add interest by mixing it up a little, as long as it's in the same lines and scale of the rest of the furnishings. Examples can be seen as on design shows or magazines.

Add an end table, which should house a beautiful lamp. This lamp will give someone the opportunity to complete tasks or read, but it should be in keeping with the design scheme. Look at it as an accessory in addition to it being a light source. Work from there to add more accessories that continue to add more interest to the space.

Watching television, entertaining, and anything else that would go on in the room requires the perfect lighting. Therefore, be sure to add plenty of light sources within the space, and have them connected to dimmer switches. This will set the stage for the perfect lighting scheme for any purpose of the room will serve. The superior lighting scheme will enable people to create a dramatic effect whenever necessary. Dim the lights when watching a movie, yet still enough illumination to allow people to move about safely.
