FlatScreen

The Television Easel from Restoration Hardware

Filed under: Decor, Gadgets



Bachelor pads and home theaters may be appropriate venues for making your flatscreen television the centerpiece of the room, but for those looking for something a little more original, a little more...artistic, Restoration Hardware offers this television easel.

Styled to look like an artist's easel, the flatscreen stand is crafted from mahogany, hand-lacquered, fitted with integrated storage for components and cables, and can accommodate screens up to 60 inches large. Plasma and LCD televisions that big don't come cheap, but then neither does this stand, at a nickel under a grand.

Piero Fornasetti Comes to a Screen Near You

Filed under: Art


It's the flat screen tv as canvas -- design co. Detour Moves has compiled a disc of animated interpretations of Fornasetti designs, inspired by Italian designer Piero Fornasetti's Theme & Variations. Each disc holds more than 500 images that rotate on your television, transforming a blank screen into changeable art that's peering at you -- this is Fornasetti after all -- as often as you peer at it.

The 3,000 discs were produced in a limited edition and come in a unique black lacquer box. All for $175.

Mirror Collage Plasma TV Cabinet

Filed under: Decor, Gadgets


Some plasma televisions are works of art in and of themselves and to hide them would be a shame. But most aren't so fabulous and are better kept out of sight when not in use. There are lots of clever ways to conceal a flat-screen television - I've seen them behind panels, paintings and drapes as well as inside pop-up entertainment centers. But as far as a remedy to the unsightly black hole of the television, this one gets points for creativity. Wood-framed beveled mirrors of different sizes overlap in an artful arrangement that not only hides your flat-screen television, but adds light and space to your room. The overall dimensions are 71"W x 11"D x 51" and the cabinet will accommodate most 50" plasma televisions. $4649.
