Sneaky Solutions: Stylishly Hide Unsightly Tech with Hidden TV
Architects, designers, and homeowners are finding creative ways to hide unsightly technology in homes. From concealing televisions with custom built-in cabinetry, mechanized hoists, or sliding mounts, to using playful solutions like guillotine panels or curtains, there are various methods to make TVs disappear. Speakers can be recessed behind ceiling treatments or plastered into walls for a completely invisible look. In kitchens, hidden appliances are trending, with hoods that remain flush with the countertop and wall ovens concealed behind access panels. Intelligent solutions are also being used to minimize cord and charger clutter. However, designers question why technology doesn't prioritize aesthetics from the start.
