For decades, living room design followed an unwritten but fairly immutable rule: the entire space revolved around the TV.<\/strong> The sofa, the orientation of the lights, the placement of outlets, and even the overall layout were all designed to face the screen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n However, in our studio, we\u2019re seeing this change. More and more clients are expressing the same concern: \u201cWe want to have a TV, but we don\u2019t want the living room to revolve around it because it disrupts the harmony of the space.\u201d It\u2019s a logical concern. When you design your home, you aim to create a peaceful space with warm materials and thoughtful lighting\u2014and then, suddenly\u2026 there\u2019s that dark box dictating the aesthetics even when it\u2019s turned off.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Today, integrating the TV into the living room involves more than just choosing a free wall. The TV and the decor must coexist without the screen becoming the absolute centerpiece of the room.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The living room is now a multitasking space. We want it to invite conversation, reading, unwinding with a cup of coffee, or listening to music. We consume content differently (on laptops, tablets, or cell phones), so the TV no longer needs to be the absolute centerpiece of the room.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The solution doesn\u2019t necessarily have to involve completely getting rid of the TV (although some people choose to live without it and prioritize a bookshelf instead). For most people, the challenge lies in finding the right balance: maintaining the convenience of a screen without sacrificing visual tranquility.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n At Sezam, we don\u2019t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions; it all depends on how each client lives. That said, these are the three options that work best for us in projects when we aim to seamlessly integrate the TV into the decor.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is the option we most often recommend. It\u2019s not about doing without a TV, but about integrating it seamlessly.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We design furniture with sliding panels or retractable doors so that the screen is only visible when it\u2019s being used. Hiding the TV doesn\u2019t mean giving it up; it means letting it disappear when it isn\u2019t adding anything to the space.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We did this, for example, in a project in the Gr\u00e0cia neighborhood. The living room needed to feel more organized and stylish and make better use of natural light, so we designed a piece of furniture that, when closed, completely concealed the TV while also serving as a mount for hanging artwork. With this solution, the space immediately feels more harmonious, organized, and peaceful.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/sezam.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Portada-Blogs-8.jpg” alt=”integrate television ” title_text=”integrate television ” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|-47px||||” custom_padding=”|0px||||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”8px|-55px||||” custom_padding=”0px|||4px||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A few years ago, installing a projector in a home was almost considered an eccentricity among movie buffs. Today, it\u2019s a viable and very sleek option from an interior design perspective.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For those looking for ways to display a TV without taking up an entire wall, today\u2019s short-throw projectors\u2014what we in the industry call Laser TVs<\/strong>\u2014rest on a stand just a few centimeters from the wall. Brands like Samsung, with its The Premiere model<\/strong> featuring a meticulously crafted fabric design, or Hisense,<\/strong> offer impeccable image quality.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The question we\u2019re always asked is whether they look good during the day. The answer is yes, as long as they\u2019re paired with high-contrast technical screens (ALR or CLR<\/strong>). Specialized brands like Elite Screens<\/strong> manufacture fixed screens with nearly invisible frames or, better yet, motorized screens that emerge from the floor or from inside the cabinet and disappear completely when turned off.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Of course, this solution requires planning from the very start of the renovation project to account for hidden installations, audio, and proper distances.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/sezam.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Portada-Blogs-6.jpg” alt=”integrate television ” title_text=”integrate television ” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|-47px||||” custom_padding=”|0px||||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”8px|-55px||||” custom_padding=”0px|||4px||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For projects with a more flexible budget, automated systems are a great option. These are mechanisms that allow the TV to be hidden in the ceiling or to emerge from a low cabinet using a motor. They are very visually clean solutions because they keep the walls completely clear, although their installation is technically more complex and requires a larger investment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/sezam.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Portada-Blogs-7.jpg” alt=”integrate television ” title_text=”integrate television ” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|-47px||||” custom_padding=”|0px||||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|-51px||||” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\nThe Challenge of Interior Design: Integrating the TV into the D\u00e9cor Without Compromising the Design<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n
