Very often after arranging the TV (and TV Stand), the space behind or around it remains blank. How to make it more attractive visually? Gallery on the wall is a great way to deal with this challenge. Below are presented fifteen ways how to arrange a wall gallery and fit a TV into it.

Gallery in Modern style. Bold color accents look pretty impressive. The subjects of Contemporary art and design are magnificent. This gallery is suitable to combine several styles.

The decorations of this gallery are the blackboards. This is another example of emphasizing the height of space. The boards can be used by children, for drawing and writing, and by adults for their own self-expression.

On this wall, the TV perceives as one of the pictures. This is a very spectacular reception. A high torchier adds a sense of height to space, and a wicker basket balances the entire composition.

Here’s a great example of using a Vintage style. These old shutters look fascinating! They also emphasize the height of space.

This wall gallery looks simple and at the same time pleasant for perception. A TV Stand in yellow appears as a focusing object. It fits well with the blue walls, while the decorative elements of neutral color on the wall perfectly complement the composition.

This is a good sample of a classic wall gallery. Its highlight is a small shelf above the TV. It immediately attracts attention and can be the focal point of the composition. Changing pictures or objects on the shelf is much easier than on the wall, and it can be done as often as you want.

The attention of this gallery is focused on children’s photos. This is a great idea! Another interesting element is the shelves for books on the right. The TV stand looks interesting, but for the better effect, it can also be painted.

All the above, and higher, and higher… Who said that the gallery on the wall should be low? This sample clearly refutes this statement. And again — this is a black and white classic combination. Looks pretty bold.

There is another alternative of the Modern gallery. A good combination of white and black. Other bright colors serve as complementary elements.

An interesting way of using shelves for the gallery. This is a great way to increase storage space. If you like to change the decoration elements often, then this kind of gallery is ideal for you. There are frames of the same size and color as a TV Stand to create harmony in composition.

Symmetric gallery. This method is suitable for a formal interior and emphasizes straight and clear lines.

Modern gallery again. Please note that the gallery is not a frame for the TV. The TV is on TV Stand and blocks some of the pictures on the wall, and it looks natural. Not always the TV should be a part of the gallery.

The gallery is made in a rustic style. The TV is fixed to the wall as one of the elements of the gallery. The wall is wide enough.

This is an example of a refutation of another statement that the wall gallery should consist only of paintings in frames. Find items that you like or you collect them. Create a gallery of these items.

Gallery of mixed forms. Here you can add pictures of different shapes and styles. The image can be without a frame, or the frame can be without an image. It depends on your imagination and creativity.

We hope this collection inspires you to create your own gallery. And as you have already realized, the TV is not a hindrance, moreover — with interesting TV stand it will complete your perfect interior.
