Cable Clutter: How to Hide those wires

There when you want it, gone when you don’t. Some people want as much technology as can fit in their homes, yet see it as a black mark on interior design. While we would argue some technology is meant to be shown off, fortunately in 2016 you can have your tech and hide it too. Here are our favorite ways to do so:

TVs & Projectors

You have the perfect location for your flatscreen, but that doesn’t mean you have to dedicate it full-time. One option is to cover it. Media Decor designs silent motors that house a mirror or original art, lifting or sliding it to reveal the TV behind. Instead they place a mirror in front of the TV that can switch between reflective and opaque. For the information-addicted they can embed a screen behind part of your bathroom mirror.

Lifts are an incredibly versatile option that can hide your TV in a piece of furniture or even under your bed. A ceiling drop is an underutilized solution as well. We like Future Automation for this arena, as they specialize in silent. They also figured out in-ceiling housing for projectors, dropping it into sight only when you’re using it. If that’s still too visible you can house your projector in a frame that only tilts down enough for a mirror to open and reflect the projector beam.

Speakers

The term “invisible speakers” used to be used quite liberally, but now you can actually sink speakers into the wall, cover them with centimeter-thin plaster and paint, and marvel at how muddy it should sound but doesn’t. While almost invisible speakers go unnoticed enough in most applications, it can get hairy when items on or behind the wall prevent symmetrical speaker placement.
