Transform your lounge with a media wall

Media walls in Thorpe Bay

Ever become lost trawling theough the options to transform your lounge because there are too many?  It’s not surprising given the options currently available! Well how about considering a MEDIA WALL.  This particular option provides several solutions in just one installation.  It can give the room:

  • Increased floor space
  • A ‘Built-in’ look
  • Extra storage solutions
  • Additional shelving
  • Feature lighting
  • Added room textures for example, slat wall acoustic panels, wood cladding, offeset tile feature
  • Space for television, soundbar, consols etc without the need for a unit
  • Fireplace effect

There is no substitute for a fully plastered media wall because it not only gives a look that the look that it has always been a part of the room but offers flexibility in that the colour of the media wall can be changed with minimal effort to give the room a refreshed vibe.

Common mistakes made when building a media wall include cladding the outer finishing material in MDF.  With an MDF media wall, unless the wall is smaller than 2440mm x 1220mm, there will always be joins and with the best will in the world, even the best decorator will struggle to hide them entirely. So in our opinion, you just can’t beat a plastered finish.  As an example, with many of the moden electric fireplaces, they are installed first and the plasterboard is installed on top as they need to be plastered INTO the wall to give a perfect, fully integrated finish.

The great thing about media walls is there is no such thing as a ‘standard media wall’  install.  They are built to order and as such are fully customisable so you can choose from a range of featues, textures, styles and arangements of recessed areas and have them exactly where you want to match the style of your room, as well as your personal style and taste.
