4 Ways to Decorate the Top of an Entertainment Unit

Entertainment units are a significant feature of your living room. One of the primary ways to spruce up your entertainment centre is to use some decorative elements on top of it that will make it look sleek and stylish. Whether you have a custom-built entertainment centre or an expandable entertainment centre, the display area at the top of the cabinet is always wide which can be decorated according to the room decor or your preference. 

#1. Maintain a Theme

On the basis of the size of the entertainment centre and the objects, you can choose the number of items to display. If you keep an odd number of objects then it will appear visually attractive and to make it look neat you can also keep some accessories along with the display objects. In case, if you want to put some DVDs and remotes on top then use a basket for it and which can also work for wood or pottery accessory. 

#2. Create a Wide but a Low Display

If the decorative feature is wider than being taller than the entertainment centre looks good in a room that is has a low ceiling.  Even if the entertainment centre is not very tall, the horizontal line will take the onlooker’s attention away from the low ceiling. Silk vines like ivy can be used for some additional texture on top of the entertainment units and there are some other options that you can add on the top of the centre, are a rectangular or low pot with a row of handmade masks or cacti. 

#3. Fill Up the Vertical Space

If your room has a large wall expanse below the ceiling then you can use large decorative pieces to increase the height of the entertainment centre. Some other things that you can include on top of the entertainment centre are,
  • An abstract painting
  • Wall hanging
  • Patterned tapestry 

#4. Arrange in a Group

When you arrange various elements on top of the entertainment centre there will be different shapes, colours, sizes, and forms.  A large painting, or a framed photo, or a mirror can grab the attention of the onlooker. You can either make it lean against the wall or hang it above the centre. Incorporating a group of sculptures matching the subject of the painting will help in creating a thematic effect. Take a vase, a handmade object, and a bust in a triangular format and put one of them in the foreground and the rest of them close to the back. However, before you do all these, you need to choose the best entertainment centre for your living space. 
  • The primary thing that you need to keep in mind for blending aesthetic and functional appeal is to have a colour scheme in mind. You should check the existing colour shade of the room and the furniture in the room. Thereafter choose the accent colour that you like the most and include it in your entertainment cabinet.
  • Avoid getting stuck with the same finishes. If you have only wood furniture in your house then you should choose wooden entertainment units. However, do not forget to look at the metal rack, lacquered finishes, and the units with glass doors. If the upholstery and furniture are minimalistic then add some wooden tones.
  • You can make the room look stylish with the help of the cabinet unit which comes in different sizes, designs, and shapes. Do not hesitate to use two different colours as this adds a new dimension to your house. 
As the entertainment centre is one of the largest pieces of furniture in the house, it turns out to be the focal point of the room. This is the reason you need to make sure it looks neat and appealing.
