{"title":"Open TV units","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn open TV stand works well in living rooms where a solid cabinet can quickly look too heavy. You see more floor and more wall around your screen. That makes a difference in a small seating area, where every closed form is immediately noticeable. At the same time, you have a fixed place for your media box or game console, without everything being left scattered around the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy an open TV stand often works better\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith an open model, the arrangement remains lighter. You notice this especially in an apartment or narrow living room, where a closed cabinet turns the entire wall into one solid block. An open compartment literally reveals shadow and depth, a little like how a wall shelf looks calmer than a fully packed storage cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is also a practical advantage: equipment is easier to reach and heat can escape more effectively. A receiver or console that quickly feels cramped in a closed cabinet has more space here and is more pleasant to use. For a broader overview of style and cable management, the blog \u003ca href=\"\/en\/blogs\/news\/tv-meubel-kiezen-stijl-opbergruimte-en-kabelmanagement\"\u003echoosing a TV stand\u003c\/a\u003e is useful additional reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials and style in this collection\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOpen TV stands depend heavily on their material. A gray finish provides a calm foundation that does not compete with your screen. A travertine look or ceramic adds more pattern to the room. Think of the soft, cloudy appearance of natural stone on a tabletop: lively, but not restless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn an interior with many straight lines, the furniture can add some texture. If you already have a floor with a lot of pattern, it is better to keep the TV stand calm. That choice almost always works better than adding another busy surface at eye level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor more cohesion around the seating area, you can easily combine an open TV stand with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/wandplanken\"\u003ewall shelves\u003c\/a\u003e or one of the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/hangmeubelen\"\u003ewall-mounted cabinets\u003c\/a\u003e. This keeps the floor clear and gives the entire wall a calm rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhich size suits your wall and screen\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe right width makes the difference between looking neatly placed and almost right. A good guideline is to choose a stand that is wider than your TV. This gives the screen some space on both sides. It looks calmer, just as a painting looks better with a border of wall around it than placed tightly between two tall cabinets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasure not only the television, but the entire wall area. Consider, for example, that power socket positioned just behind a leg, or a skirting board that sticks out and prevents the stand from sitting flush. In many living rooms, a long, low stand is the strongest choice because it visually stretches the wall and brings calm to the seating area. For the proportions between sofa, table, and wall unit, the blog \u003ca href=\"\/en\/blogs\/news\/bank-salontafel-en-sidetable-de-verhoudingen-kloppend-krijgen\"\u003esofa, coffee table, and console table\u003c\/a\u003e can also help.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are unsure between compact and wide, choose the wider option as soon as the wall has enough space. A TV stand that is too small quickly looks like a separate little island beneath a large screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCombining storage without making the room feel full\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn open TV stand requires some discipline, but not an empty showroom arrangement. One compartment with a media box and a stack of magazines beside it often works better than five small accessories competing for attention. The open spaces do much of the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is better to add extra storage beside or above the stand than to fill every compartment of the TV stand itself. A slim cabinet from the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/wandkasten\"\u003ewall cabinets\u003c\/a\u003e collection keeps items out of sight without closing off the TV corner.

On the other hand, everything is easy to reach. A quick wipe over the shelf and cables is usually enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes an open TV stand also work in a family home?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, but keep the arrangement simple. Give equipment a fixed place and do not let the lower area fill up with loose items. This keeps the stand looking calm and makes cleaning manageable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan an open TV stand work without wall decoration above it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsolutely. A long, low model often has enough presence on its own. A bare wall above it actually creates calm, especially with a large screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is more practical: open compartments or extra drawers elsewhere in the room?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the TV corner, open compartments are more accessible. For everything you do not want to see, additional storage elsewhere works better. Consider a wall cabinet or sideboard in the same style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOpen TV stands are a strong choice for anyone who wants an airy arrangement without compromising on function. Choose based on width, material, and calmness in the overall look, and your seating area will immediately feel more grounded.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"tv-meubel-cross-220cm-grijs","title":"TV unit Cross 220cm \/ Grey","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe long, open design of the Cross TV stand keeps your wall looking uncluttered, while giving your TV and equipment a clear place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasuring 220 cm wide, 35 cm deep, and 51 cm high, this open TV stand is suitable for a large TV in the living room without looking bulky.
