Bedroom Media Wall. Designed for How You Watch.

A bedroom media wall is a bespoke joinery unit built into the bedroom wall to house a TV, conceal cables and incorporate storage. The design brief is different from a living room media wall. The TV sits lower to align with bed viewing height, lighting is warmer and dimmable rather than feature-lit, and storage typically serves the bedroom rather than AV equipment.

The TV centre should sit at roughly eye height when you are propped up in bed on pillows, typically 90 to 110cm from the floor depending on your mattress and bed frame height. This is lower than a living room media wall where viewers are seated upright. We measure your bed height at consultation and position the TV recess accordingly so viewing is comfortable from the moment it is installed.

Lighter finishes tend to work better in bedrooms than living rooms. A bedroom media wall in dark timber or painted charcoal can feel oppressive on a wall you face from bed every morning. Painted oak, warm white lacquer and light grey are the most popular bedroom choices. That said, a master bedroom with high ceilings and good natural light can carry a dark build well. We advise based on the specific room at consultation.

Yes, and it is a popular brief for master bedrooms. A slimline electric fireplace built into a bedroom media wall adds warmth and atmosphere without the heat output of a living room build. The fireplace sits in the lower section of the joinery, the TV recess is above it, and the whole wall is designed so both elements read as one. We manage the full electrical installation certified to Part P.

A bedroom media wall starts from £7,000. The final cost depends on the size of the build, whether storage is included, the finish and the complexity of the AV installation. Bedroom builds are often simpler than living room builds because surround sound and extensive AV equipment are less common, which can bring the cost toward the lower end of the range. All quotes are fixed price before work begins.

Not always. Many bedroom media walls house only the TV and its power and signal cables. Without a separate amplifier, speaker system or games console to route, the AV installation is simpler and the joinery can be more compact. We design the storage around what you actually need rather than a standard AV rack layout.

Yes. Combining a media wall with flanking fitted wardrobes is one of the most efficient uses of a bedroom wall. The wardrobes run either side of the TV recess and the whole piece is designed as a single wall treatment. This is more cost-effective than two separate briefs and the result looks more resolved. We can include hanging rails, shelving, drawer units and a dressing table within the same build.
