Hiding in Plain Sight

When not in use, TVs can be somewhat unsightly black slabs, especially in larger sizes. One of the simplest ways to avoid this look is to use art TVs or TVs that look like artwork. These ultra-thin TVs mount flush to the wall and, when not in use, display beautiful artwork in high resolution. With thousands of art options, from impressionism to ultra-modern, your walls can take on a fresh look. Custom framing options are available to seamlessly integrate the TV into your decor, creating a stunning visual piece in any room.

Appearing from Nowhere

Another excellent option is hiding equipment, particularly TVs, projectors, and screens until needed. With custom mounts, a TV can descend from the ceiling, swing out from a wall, or rise from a custom piece of furniture. A projector can descend on a motorized mount from a hidden ceiling cavity, summoned by a push of a button that also lets the screen appear from a ceiling or behind motorized drapes or doors. You won't need multiple remote controls or buttons; it can all work under the orchestration of a home automation system.

Sound Unseen

The latest architectural speakers—those that hide in walls and ceilings—are at once better quality and more discreet than ever. Sonance's Invisible Series is an excellent choice, as it features an amazingly shallow mounting depth and a grill-less design that can be finished with paint, wallpaper, and other wall finishes. Another solution, the James Small Aperture Series, which packs surprisingly powerful speakers behind a small opening with square or round apertures that blend perfectly with modern LED architectural lighting, for what designers call the "quiet ceiling" look.
