Choosing the Perfect TV Frame: From Gold Accents to Contemporary Designs
May 15, 2025In an age of minimalism and seamless design, homeowners are increasingly looking for ways to reduce visual clutter without compromising on comfort or technology. One of the most elegant ways to achieve this is through the use of a hidden TV—a clever design feature that integrates entertainment into the room discreetly, often disguised behind mirrors, artwork, or cabinetry. If you’re striving for clean lines and sophistication in your home, concealing your TV could be the ultimate design upgrade.
Why Hide Your TV?
For many, the TV remains the centrepiece of the room—but it doesn’t have to dominate visually. A hidden TV blends with your space when not in use, allowing the room’s true aesthetic to shine. Whether you live in a modern loft or a traditional townhouse, when you hide your TV you can:
- Maintain a clean, elegant aesthetic
- Eliminate the “black rectangle” effect when the TV is off
- Enhance the feeling of open, uncluttered space
Ways to Hide Your TV
Let’s explore some of the most popular and effective ways to integrate a hidden TV into your home:
Mirror TVs
Perhaps the most impressive hidden TV solution, a mirror TV functions as both a television and a stylish mirror. When turned off, the screen disappears behind a sleek reflective surface. When on, the TV image is bright and clear, thanks to special dielectric mirror glass.
Frame Your TV specializes in mirror over TV designs, offering high-end customization so your mirror TV can be tailored to your exact style. Whether you want an ornate gold frame, a minimalist look, or something truly bespoke, it’s possible to turn your screen into a decorative feature when not in use.

Artwork TV Frames
Another elegant solution is a motorised Art TV Frame—where a painting or printed canvas slides or lifts away to reveal a screen. This method adds an element of surprise and theatre, perfect for home cinemas or formal living rooms.
In the same category, you could opt for a Digital Art TV Frame, where the painting is digitally displayed on specialised TVs such as Samsung Frame TV or Hisense Canvas TV and we build a frame for the TV.

Cabinet or Panel Concealment
Bespoke cabinetry is a practical way to keep your TV out of sight. When combined with sliding doors, retractable panels, or pocket systems, you can hide even large screens behind furniture that matches your interior.

TV Behind Sliding Mirrors or Panels
For bedrooms and dining rooms, a horizontally sliding mirror or decorative panel can conceal the screen. This approach works particularly well in spaces where symmetry and visual balance are important.
Ideal Spaces to Hide Your TV
- Living Rooms: Use a mirror TV above the fireplace for a luxurious, multifunctional centrepiece.
- Bedrooms: A TV hidden behind artwork keeps your retreat feeling calm and uncluttered.
- Kitchens: A small mirror TV or a full kitchen splashback mirror TV allows you to stay connected without compromising your stylish cabinetry.
- Bathrooms: Waterproof mirror TVs offer the perfect blend of tech and luxury.
How Hidden TVs Elevate Interior Design
Hidden TVs contribute to luxury interior design by maintaining aesthetic flow and reducing technological intrusion. Instead of designing a room around your screen, you’re free to focus on furniture, art, and architecture.
Pairing a TV into frame—for example, by framing your TV in gold, wood, or bespoke finishes—adds refinement to the space. A frame over TV not only conceals the screen edge but enhances the room’s style narrative.
Installation Tips
- Plan Early: Incorporate hidden TV elements into your design plans early for best results. We provide wall preparation, shop drawings and bespoke installation instructions with every product allowing you to have everything ready when coming to the actual project completion.
- Cable Management: Conceal wiring inside walls or cabinetry for a clean look. Our wall preparation guide allows you to plan for all of the situations but most importantly for your chosen product.
- Lighting Considerations: When purchasing a Mirror TV you need to consider that it is essentially a glass in front of a screen. The light in the room and the reflectivity feature of the Dielectric Mirror TV glass you choose can impact your viewing experience. The recommended solution will always be that of our LuxView High Brightness TV, especially designed to fit behind reflective mirror glass, however you can also opt for a combination of light controlling solutions and lower reflectivity dielectric mirror glass with a normal TV.
