Your weird, clunky television on the wall of your bedroom does not need to shout that you no longer care about decorating. I got this lesson in living myself with a naked television wall an entire two years and realized why my otherwise beautiful bedroom was still feeling so… incomplete. It just so turns out that strategic TV wall design can turn your bedroom wall into a beautiful eyesore or the gorgeous focal point and makes the entire space more purposeful and refined.
All of these twelve bedroom TV wall designs are actual spaces I have designed myself or read about, and stared at in total excitement on the internet. Both solutions address the typical issue of incorporating technology to the bedrooms that have close and intimate spaces without compromising its style, comfort, structure, and functionality which the bedrooms sorely lack.
The Floating Gallery Wall Design
Asymmetrical Art Arrangement
Framing your TV with items selected intentionally adds flair to your television screen via the construction of a highfalutin gallery allowing the display to become akin to a selection in a meaningful art assembly as opposed to a technical invasion. It is the master bedroom that I have mastered after months of trying different compositions and frames together.
The key elements include:
- Mix of frame sizes and finishes for visual interest
- Personal photographs combined with abstract art
- Strategic spacing that prevents overwhelming chaos
- Color coordination that complements the room’s palette
The way this design functions is genius in the sense that it embraces your TV as the center of attraction, instead of a cover up or excuse.
Strategic Floating Shelves
The floating structures on the sides of the TV will create three shelves on which to place the items on display, with perfect harmony in visuals achieved. My own design features hardcover books, small plants and decorative objects that change with season- this has turned out to be my favorite design item to switch up.
Smart shelf styling includes:
- Books arranged both vertically and horizontally
- Small plants that thrive in bedroom lighting
- Decorative boxes that hide remotes and cables
- Personal mementos that make the space authentic
The Dramatic Dark Accent Wall Design
Charcoal Paint with Brass Accents
Deep black walls behind your TV give that “suite at a 5-star hotel” feel while blackening the already dimish screen. I painted my TV wall in a deep charcoal colour, and added brass picture frames and it suddenly was five-stars in my bedroom.
This sophisticated approach features:
- Dark paint that minimizes TV’s visual impact
- Metallic accents in gold, brass, or copper
- Strategic lighting to prevent cave-like effects
- Minimal decor with maximum luxurious impact
The secret is finding the equilibrium between the darkness, and sufficient light in other parts behind the room.
Integrated LED Backlighting
The dramatic look of the dark wall would be toned down by ambient lighting featured by the LED strips located on the TV back panel, which also helps to ease eye tiresomeness in watching TV during the evening hours. I put in color adjusters which switch between daytime morning news (bright white) and night time movies (warm amber).
| Design Element | Color Temperature | Best Use Time |
|---|---|---|
| Bright White LEDs | 5000K-6500K | Morning/afternoon viewing |
| Warm Amber LEDs | 2700K-3000K | Evening/bedtime viewing |
The Reclaimed Wood Feature Wall Design
Weathered Barn Wood Installation
Vertical reclaimed wood planks above your TV form a ready-made homey vibe through warmth and texture that makes cold electronics feel more like a cuddly focal point. I made the wood I used in the guest bedroom real barn wood and the differences in color and texture are what make the wood interesting and the story it already has can never be created by a manufactured material.
Wood feature wall benefits include:
- Natural sound absorption for better TV acoustics
- Organic texture that softens harsh electronic lines
- Warmth that complements most bedroom color schemes
- Easy installation over existing drywall
FYI, you do not require actual reclaimed wood, good reproductions can have the same visual impact and be much cheaper and easier to install.
Vintage-Style Accessories
Rustic and antique features finish off the reclaimed wood look and simultaneously offer valuable bedroom storage. My TV wall has a spare wooden crate which I used as a blanket holder I found somewhere in my house and it serves its purpose and is also well themed.
The Modern Minimalist Design
Clean White Console Integration
Flat screen TV mounted on the wall with above a floating white console adds a premium simplicity that small bedrooms appear to be bigger and better organized. This would be effective since all the elements can fulfill more than one purpose but retain a sense of calmness on the eye.
Essential minimalist elements:
- Hidden cable management for clean lines
- Console storage for electronics and bedroom items
- Limited color palette focusing on whites and grays
- Strategic negative space that prevents clutter
I introduced this design in my rent received flat, and the straight lines transform the whole area to seem more expensive and purposeful.
Subtle Geometric Elements
Basic geometric designs are painted behind the television to give a visual appeal, but it does not clutter the minimalist design. I applied three circles over the top of each other but in varying tones of white- subtlety but elegant.
The Built-In Entertainment Center Design
Custom Millwork Integration
Floor to ceiling built-ins make wonderful TV integrations and give a professional-looking permanent design. Custom millwork around the TV area was an extravagance when I redid my master bedroom- the effect was indescribable.
Built-in advantages include:
- Complete cable and equipment concealment
- Coordinated storage for bedroom necessities
- Architectural interest in otherwise plain rooms
- Significant increase in home value
DIY Built-In Alternative
Not able to spring for custom millwork? Even a fraction of the cost can be achieved with strategic IKEA hacking, to produce comparable effects build-in. I have seen amazing applications of white IKEA units done in such a way that they appear fully custom in the right application and painted.
The Boho Textile Wall Design
Layered Macrame and Tapestries
Patterned fiber wall hangings around your TV give off that sought-after over time boho vibe that is ownable and inviting. I created visual layers by adding vintage tapestries to my macrame around my television adding texture creating something that is embrace and not in conflict with technology.
Boho layering strategies:
- Vary textures from smooth to highly textured
- Mix neutral colors with subtle pops of earth tones
- Include plants and natural elements throughout
- Balance busy patterns with solid colors
Global-Inspired Accents
Floating shelves feature travel-inspired decor and are the piece to share your personal story in a consistent bedroom styling. Beside my screen I display pottery purchased on many different trips-it is purposeful, yet a part of the whole which is aesthetically pleasing.
The Scandinavian Serenity Design
Light Wood and Soft Blue Palette
Nature light oak designs and azure walls will provide the desired comfort of Scandinavian ambience of bedrooms, as the space appears to be an oasis of peace. My shelves are made of light wood floating against pale blue walls- this combination is fresh and peaceful.
Scandinavian elements include:
- Light wood tones that don’t compete with TV darkness
- Soft color palettes in blues, greens, and grays
- Minimal decor with maximum calming impact
- Cozy textiles that invite relaxation
Hygge Comfort Details
The Scandinavian decor is rounded out fixtures of soft comfort which creates the sense of conscious TV watching and coziness. My bedroom sitting area has chunky knit throws and a plushness of pillows now -all of a sudden, sitting through a movie on Netflix is a hygge experience :)’
The Industrial Chic Design
Metal Pipe Shelving System
Industrial sophistication Magnetic black iron pipe shelving surrounding your TV looks cool but also gives you a handy location to store bedroom essentials. I constructed this system myself out of plumbing supplies- the materials themselves were less than $100 yet they look absurdly expensive.
Industrial design elements:
- Raw materials like metal, concrete, and reclaimed wood
- Exposed hardware and structural elements
- Neutral color palette with black accents
- Functional storage that doubles as decoration
Edison Bulb Lighting
Vintage-style edison bulb lights have a warm ambient glow that adds industrial flair in addition to the ideal bedroom atmosphere during evening television watching.
The Contemporary Geometric Design
Three-Dimensional Wall Panels
Geometric wall panels of your TV in the form of sculptures make a modern chic that makes technology seem inclined into modern world designs. I placed hexagonal panels that create an interesting shadows throughout the day.
Geometric approaches include:
- Removable panels for rental-friendly options
- Mixed materials combining wood and metal
- Strategic lighting that emphasizes dimensional effects
- Clean lines that complement modern furniture
Modern Art Integration
Huge modern art above the TV on both sides makes it a gallery yet comfortable and intimate bedroom.
The Coastal Retreat Design
Weathered Wood and Sea Glass Colors
Shelving on driftwood with blue-green tones make it look like a beachy bedroom, which will imply that every day is a vacation. I added old wood features and accessories made of sea glass color on my TV wall.
Coastal elements include:
- Natural materials that suggest ocean environments
- Soft color palettes inspired by sea and sky
- Relaxed, informal styling that promotes calm
- Plants and natural textures throughout
Rope and Nautical Details
Light ropes on picture frames are nautical touches that simply do not look overdone in bedrooms nodding at every theme park.
The Luxe Hotel Suite Design
Rich Velvet and Metallic Accents
Dark metallic shimmers and rich jeweled tones bring that high end hotel room air that allows one to watch television before bed time feeling like a king. I painted TV wall deep emerald and got gold accents at the wall, the impression is grand and elegant.
Luxury design features:
- Rich, saturated colors that create intimate atmosphere
- High-quality materials like velvet and silk
- Strategic metallic accents in consistent finish
- Layered lighting for multiple mood options
Statement Mirror Integration
Substantial decor mirrors strategically located in the vicinity of the TV reflect light, and further, the illusion of larger space is developed yet with luxury appeal.
In my opinion, this is not a half-done scheme, because anything less than full-out luxuriousness comes out looking worse than the plain and straight forward.
The Eclectic Vintage Mix Design
Antique Frame Gallery
Frames of many sizes and finishes add a patina of collected-over-time to an otherwise assembled look and gives form to family pictures and artwork around your TV. Months I searched second-hand stores to find the right molding of fancy frames with plain ones.
Vintage mixing strategies:
- Vary frame styles while maintaining color consistency
- Include family photos for personal connection
- Mix antique pieces with modern elements
- Create visual balance through strategic placement
Repurposed Furniture Integration
TV stands made out of vintage furniture are decorative as well as functional to store the items needed in the bedroom and hide electronics.
