to extend the brown color board aligning to the edge of the wall?make it till top and a hole for the air con

also better not to put any electrical devices directly under the aircon as aircon r prone to leak over the years...

I got think of that as a solution but it will make the whole tv cabinet look very ugly and look like there is no contrast in the design.

Will put that as last resort...

you still will get contrast if you leave some space on the left hand side.. and the other contrast u get is the ac color vs ur brown board tongue.gif

Hi,

How about move the aircond to the wall on the left to free up the wall for full height wall panel.

then make the upper part of wall panel detachable for any piping servicing.

will you have any plaster ceiling coming down from the ceiling?

How about don't need the wall panel. Leave the aircon alone.

Paint the wall darker color. Match the cabinet color and design. Put some light.

Get an ID to do it.

HI,

If i move the air cond to the left, then wont the air cond look like at an awkward position. The air cond is blowing the tv?

Second then my curtain will look like going thru half way then stop.

Yes, there is plaster ceiling. in the picture there is plaster ceiling already

i halp u design
cant go vertical because got aircond, do a horizontalish one instead
can 'wrap' a bit on the corridor wall. just to give a effect like inserted inside the wall
with shelf on top because actually iwont put things like tv under the a/c. so at least a shelf would help soften the impact of fall/leaking. i hope

see u say nice o not

You can highlight colors or wallpaper it on top of the wall and top of the backing panel can put T5 light's for the effect.

I think if you wanna put a panel, the long length will be affected by the switch on the right.

Based on the wall size, I think put wallpaper or Nippon Momento paint and buy a ready made tv cabinet put on the floor will look nice.
Nowadays, 4k or LED TV stand look contemporary too and not necessary to hang on wall.
Don't need to move the switch and air cond.

2nd option, make panel wide instead of full height. Full height will make the wall look small.
Photos all get from Google.

Np. If you like watch at dark, you can put a stand light beside sofa or tv area.
That will be nice too. biggrin.gif
