Can a functional element in a home interior become an unmissable accessory? Well, this statement is true for TV unit design. In modern interior design, Modular TV units have taken up an extremely important space in homes.
Not only are they functional, but also aesthetically pleasing. They are capable not only of storing your stuff but also of making your place ‘so good looking’ that it becomes your favourite spot to show up for Instagram reels.
Could You Find a TV Unit Design Best Suited for Your Home?
We are showcasing some brilliant Italian TV unit designs here. Let’s see more.
1. The Floating TV Unit Design
The floating TV unit design is generally wall-mounted or fixed on the tall wooden carcass that acts as the TV’s backdrop. They are one of the most loved TV units designed. One of the most popular choices in modern interior design (especially for apartments/flats).
Features:
- Consume less floor space.
- Vibe like it’s hanging somewhere in between.
- Looks great with smoother edges.
2. A Hidden TV Unit Design for a Seamless Look
This is again one of the fastest-growing trends in TV unit design. Keep your TV behind the doors. Since in modern interior design, the role of ‘a seamless look’ is most crucial. Things/ spaces must look clean and clutter-free (here I am talking about visual clutter). Just like the concept of invisible kitchens I had discussed in my early blog, these hidden modular TV units are also influencing the modern living room designs.
Features:
- TV is kept hidden behind shutters/sliders.
- The sliders are given a texture/pattern of the wall 98% of the time, maintaining seamlessness
- Use of a push-to-open mechanism for drawers (free from handles)
3. Biophilia to the Core in TV Unit Design
Green walls are the new ‘thing’ in the world. The world is looking for solutions to cut down pollution inside and outside. To cut down the dependency on an artificial coolant system, the inside ambient temperature must be able to maintain coolness. This kind of nature-friendly design is rapidly making its place in people’s homes.
Features:
- Use of natural materials in home interiors, such as a natural wood TV unit.
- Giving place to indoor planters/vertical green walls
- Choice of sustainable materials that promise to last long.

Features:
- Created with ample storage space.

7. Fully Customised Modular TV Unit Design
Modular TV units are the solution to present small space problems. Increasing population, purchasing power and decreasing residential space are making people shift slowly from ‘the standard designs’. Rather, a fully customised modular TV unit design is more appreciated—one that suits an individual’s personal needs and future evolving conditions.
Features:
- Can be customised according to the requirements of the clients
- The length, width and height can be altered—regardless of the prevailing standard size charts.

- The TV unit design may use a backdrop or simply escape it.
- It’s sleek, simple and highly affordable.
9. Mushy – Curvy edges in TV Unit Design
This style is the most prevailing trend in furniture design. The curvy edges make the TV unit design look more sophisticated and warmer. Another plus point is that if you have small kids at home, you should prefer this style.
Features:
- Smooth edges – with curves
- Need factory-finished edge binding for finishing.
- Generally looks great with a wood and glass combination.
10. TV Unit Design with a fireplace
Last but not least, I would include this one of the Italian masterpieces and personally my favourite among all. Don’t worry; the fire is not real. Yes, you can have an illusion of a European home with a fireplace included in your TV unit design while doing modern interior design of your living room.
Features:
- The most common type of version is using electric fireplace inserts.
- The second most important version is using distilled water and 3D lights to create a warm 3D effect.
