Making a Living-Dining Room Feel Bigger With the Right TV Unit
In a combined living dining room, every piece of furniture shapes how spacious the whole room feels, and the TV unit has more influence than most. Choose well and the space reads as open and generous; choose poorly and it quickly feels cramped and disjointed. In this guide we explain why a low, slim TV unit keeps sightlines clear from the dining table to the far wall, why showing more floor makes a room feel larger and which wall usually works best for the lounge zone. We look at finishes that connect the living and dining areas, the benefits of pale and reflective surfaces in long through rooms, and simple ways to define two zones without walls using rugs, lighting and open dividers. You will also find advice on hiding clutter, arranging seating around the unit and using wall mounting to free up even more floor space in a busy room....
