Entertainment Units That Anchor the Living Room

The entertainment unit anchors the living room. It carries the television, hides cables and consoles, and offers a low, calm surface that draws the eye and settles the space. Chosen well, it quietly pulls the whole room together.

From slim floating designs to generous cabinets, our range delivers a luxury feel without the heavy price tag. The key is sizing the unit to your television and room, then choosing storage that keeps clutter out of sight. Set it beneath your wall mounted screen or browse the wider living room furniture range to plan the whole space.

Choosing the Right Entertainment Unit for Your Space

Begin with your television and the wall it sits against. Choose a unit wider than the screen, around 150cm or wider for a 55 inch television and 180cm or more for a 65 inch one. The centre of the screen should sit close to eye level when seated, and most units stand around 40cm to 55cm high to suit typical sofa seating. From there, decide how much storage you need and how you like to hide everyday clutter.
