Hide the consoles - The BEST TV storage ideas to conceal every day clutter

With the news of a brand-new console hitting our shelves later this year, we wonder how on earth you can hide yet another console. The trailing cables, multiple controls and endless stack of games.

Yes, consoles are a bit of pain to hide and often aren’t the most attractive pieces of technology to display in our homes.

So how do you effectively hide them in plain sight? Good TV storage that’s how! You really can’t underestimate a good TV bench, cabinet or storage unit to conceal, hide and deter from multiple consoles, remotes, controllers and trailing wires.

A MEDIA WALL

If you have a busy home with lots of movies, games, cds and general multi-media pieces, a media wall set up might just be the perfect choice. A combination of cabinets, shelving and draws can offer huge storage space for everyday living pieces including those pesky consoles.

Closing the doors and shutting the draws, all nasty look cables and clutter is hidden.

SIMPLISTIC

Whilst having lots of media bits and bobs you may think you need lots of storage, you can still achieve the minimalist look and feel in your lounge.

Low, wall mounted cupboards act as the base of your ‘unit’, whilst long open shelving is the perfect back drop for decorative pieces and personal ornaments. Throw in some lighting for a truly modern and simple look.

GET CREATIVE WITH IT

With so many stores, like Ikea, offering create your own storage systems, get creative and mold a space and storage system to match your style and need. Shop around, design and carefully consider how you want to frame your tv and use the space.
