The age old question.

Do you try to hide it? Or just admit....we watch tv!  You know everyone does.  

Most rooms are designed without tv watching in mind. Even today.

Here are a few beautiful ways to incorporate flat screen tvs into your home.

Beautiful built-in tv in a kitchen above.  I just love how it's so trim and fits into the space so well.

Here's one of my projects above.  When there's a large tv to be used, I like mounting them in a dark space, like the dark, stained cabinets above.  It minimizes the size of the screen when its off...dark on dark.

Like so....

Whenever I design cabinetry for a tv now, I do a false back like the one above, so the tv can be mounted on it.  We cut a large grommet, usually so big your hand can fit through, to be able to pull wiring back and forth easily. Then there is a large slit of a grommet in the counter on the cabinet above, behind the false back. Having things as open back there as possible helps make it easier to hook up new equipment down the road.

I also love something that can be covered up with doors, especially if looks good when they are opened.  This is great if the tv won't be used that much. I love the subtle X pattern created on these doors and the unique antique mirrored doors below.
