A practical guide to hiding cables and equipment
The home entertainment center is the heart of the living room. This is where we relax after a hard day, watching movies, playing on the console or listening to music. However, this important area often becomes a source of visual distress instead of soothing. A tangle of wires, equipment visible on the surface and random accessories create chaos that subconsciously affects our mood and reduces the quality of rest.
Fortunately, bringing order is easier than it seems. The key to success is not only good organization, but above all the choice of furniture that has been designed with modern needs in mind. A functional TV cabinet, such as those from the komodee collection, is an investment in aesthetics, safety and your everyday comfort.
Step 1: Strategy and organization – the foundation of order
Before you start hiding the equipment, take a moment to take an inventory. Collect all the cables – power, HDMI, audio – and group them according to their purpose. A simple trick is to mark each of them with a colored label next to the plug, which will save you frustration in the future. Roll up the excess cables and fasten them with dedicated ties or Velcro.
Modern TV furniture has factory grommets and discreet holes in the back plate. Use them to route cables invisibly and safely, eliminating tripping hazards and making cleaning easier.
For sound connoisseurs: How to reconcile the passion of an audiophile with home harmony?
We know that for an audiophile every element of the audio path matters, and high-quality, thick speaker or signal cables are not a fad, but a guarantee of uncompromising sound quality. The problem is that these solid cables, which are the pride of the connoisseur, are not always understood by the rest of the household. Their sight can be a source of visual clash and domestic disputes about aesthetics.
The solution is a piece of furniture that respects the needs of audiophile equipment. Look for TV cabinets with enlarged cable glands and plenty of space behind the back panel, which will allow you to freely arrange thick cables without the risk of bending or damaging them. The open design of the Tivoli model or the spacious recesses in the Merano cabinet will provide valuable ventilation for heating amplifiers, while helping to tame even the most uncompromising cables and reconcile audiophile passion with the family room.
Step 2: Thoughtful Hardware Placement
A set-top box, console or soundbar need proper ventilation to operate without failure. When planning their layout, place the appliances that generate the most heat and the ones you use the most on open shelves. The Tivoli cabinet is a perfect example of a piece of furniture that combines open recesses with an elegant design, providing the perfect conditions for your equipment and full control over the wiring.
Step 3: Discretion and minimalism – hide what doesn't have to be in plain sight
Console pads, remote controls, record collections or spare chargers – all these accessories are worth having at hand, but not necessarily in plain sight. Choose furniture with lockable fronts that will allow you to hide these items while maintaining visual cleanliness. The Orvieto model, thanks to as many as five capacious compartments, makes keeping order extremely easy.
On the other hand, for fans of minimalist and modern arrangements, suspended cabinets will be the perfect solution. The Como and Loreto models bring visual lightness to the interior, while the smooth fronts with a push-to-open opening system emphasise the clean and elegant form.
Step 4: Playing with light – create a unique atmosphere
How to choose the perfect TV cabinet for your interior?
For spacious living rooms: If you have a lot of space, you need a piece of furniture that will become the focal point of the arrangement. The impressive Merano cabinet (230 cm wide) perfectly fills the space under a large TV, offering the perfect balance between open shelves and lockers.
For compact spaces: In smaller interiors, every centimetre counts. Choose furniture with a lighter form, such as the compact Urbino or the suspended Loreto. Their well-thought-out design will allow you to make the most of the available space without overwhelming it.
For industrial and vintage interiors: The austere character of such arrangements will be perfectly emphasized by the Orvieto chest of drawers. Its anthracite finish, slender legs and central shelf with atmospheric LED backlighting will become a stylish complement to the interior.
