Living-room joinery: media walls without the clutter

A wall of beautiful cabinetry falls apart when every door is left ajar for remotes and heat. We route services, plan passive or active ventilation where manufacturers require it, and leave service access that does not spoil the face.

Depth and proportion

Screen size, seating distance, and speaker positions inform shelf depths and speaker cloth panels. We draw the TV zone to scale so the joinery frames the technology instead of fighting it.

Cables, future upgrades, and remotes

We allow service loops and labelled looms so swapping a soundbar or adding a games console does not mean stripping mouldings. IR repeaters or RF systems sit behind perforated panels where line-of-sight would otherwise fail.

Games consoles and amplifiers throw heat; we size voids and vent paths against manufacturer clearances, not hope. Timber backs behind hot electronics are avoided or detailed with air gaps.

Styling with the rest of the house

Living-room joinery often sits in sight of the kitchen. We carry through rail heights, shadow gaps, or timber species so the two rooms feel related even when they are not identical.
