TV Size

A media wall is a beautiful option to incorporate the flat-screen TV, electric fireplace, and bespoke storage in a living space decor. The stud wall frameworks typically comprise cabinets, shelves and drawers, along with the TV to create a completely customized entertainment centre. For many, the focal point of a media wall is an elegant electric fire. Selecting the ideal size TV for this specific installation requires careful consideration. The screen should be big enough to allow for a good experience but not so large that it overwhelms or dwarfs the fire.

When determining what TV screen size is best for your media wall, start with the dimensions of the wall area where you plan to install the fireplace and TV. Draw it out to size, taking into consideration any existing windows, doors, or built-in furniture arrangements. This will give you the highest dimensions of width and height within which you can create your media wall.

You should also consider the way you intend to use your electric fire and TV. Film buffs may want to go for the largest screen size for cinematic experiences, whereas those who will be using the television for casual viewing are often able to get away with smaller screens.

If you're planning to purchase an additional TV in the near future choosing one that is at the lower end of your preferred range can help prevent your media wall from becoming outdated as technology evolves. This strategy can save you the hassle of creating a bespoke installation if you choose to upgrade your TV.
