How to integrate a TV into your living room

Whether you want to display your TV or disguise it, check out our smart ideas on how to integrate it into your scheme

Cover your TV with a sliding wall

Fit a panel that slides in front of the TV when it's not in use.

‘Set the screen flush into a plasterboard wall, then the panel can be brought across from a pocket slot in the adjacent wall,' says Hugo Tugman, architectural expert from Architect Your Home.

‘Then just treat the sliding screen like another wall. Hanging an artwork is a good way to confirm the illusion - just ensure the frame is slim enough not to be damaged when the panel slides into the recess.'

How much will it cost?

Architect Your Home built this panel for £1,000, including mechanism, labour and materials.
