Want your TV mounted in the corner of the room?
Planning on mounting your TV but are unsure of where to place it. One option to consider is mounting your TV in the corner of a room. There are many benefits from aesthetics, to eliminating glare, to safety. Below is a break down of the advantages of mounting your TV in the corner of a room.
Aesthetics
By mounting your TV to the wall you are instantly creating more space and style, and let’s be honest, TV’s mounted to the wall look SO much better. You’re not seeing it sitting on a chunky piece of furniture (that takes up way too much room). Also, you can say goodbye to those messy and potentially dangerous cords (tripping hazard in case you’re wondering). And, it’s not just about the placement of the TV, but rather the TV itself. Times have changed and TV’s are no longer bulky, but rather sleek and in some cases are considered to be a work of art. Take Samsung The Frame for example. The Art Mode on the slim-fit The Frame TV helps transform your home into a gallery by displaying artworks in stunning QLED colour. You also have the option of adding a customisable frame to suit your mood and decor.
Eliminates Glare
If you find yourself having to squint when watching TV due to horrible glare, then it’s time to do something about it. If your TV is sitting on a cabinet in the room it’s not as easy to move, however if your TV is mounted to the wall, you can take action. By mounting a TV to the corner you are able to move the TV in a number of angles to reduce or in some cases eliminate the glare. Not only will this make watching TV more enjoyable, but it’s also better for your eyes. According to Mayo Clinic Health System, ”Bright reflections and glare can cause irritation, eye strain and overall discomfort to the eyes.”
Safety
This is without a doubt the most important benefit of them all. The safety of kids and pets. By having your TV mounted up high and in the corner of the room you instantly eliminate the chances of the TV being knocked over or pulled down and causing injury or death. You also no longer have to worry about tripping over those cords. In fact, according to Kidsafe VIC, ”over 150 Australian children die and a further 68,000 are hospitalised every year due to unintentional injuries – the kind often referred to as ‘accidents”’
