TV Wall Mount decorating

[entropy2]

Hi Guys,

Random question..

Do you think a wall mounted TV looks bad against a wallpapered wall? Our feature wall is where the TV is and we are about to re deocrate and I can't make up my mind what would look best. I'd prefer wallpaper.

Thanks

Ok so I'm being stupid, but how is anyone going to know if you'll think your TV will look bad on your wallpapered wall. There's no hard and fast rule which says it obviously will look crap and anyone who thinks otherwise is a tasteless moron. It's going to be just down to your personal opinion of what looks good and bad in your room, which no one here has seen.

Personally, I find many wall-mounted TV installations look awful, wallpaper or not. Many people seem to mount them too high, such as over a fireplace, so you're then often looking up at the TV instead of level at it or down at it, and across the shortest length of the room to boot. Extended viewing from an average-height armchair or sofa would leave me needing a chiropractor. But even that's only my opinion, others are entitled to think otherwise.

When my youngest niece bought her first house with her gothy boyfriend, they painted the walls in their lounge purple and black. I thought it looked shite, but they thought it looked lovely. We're both right because there's no accounting for taste.

Ha I get what you mean.. I was just asking if its acceptable or if its a major no no like white socks with black trousers.

No reason why you can't have TV on a wallpaper decorated wall.

it doesn't matter if it is acceptable or not, its your decision whether to have wallpaper or paint behind a wall mounted tv, after all you will be the person living with it.
