Project Overview – Bespoke Media Wall Built for a Modern Living Space
This project involved the design and installation of a bespoke media wall in Bournemouth, creating a modern focal point that seamlessly integrates a wall-mounted TV, electric fireplace, and custom-built recessed shelving.
The client wanted a clean, contemporary finish that would elevate the living space while concealing cables, sockets, and fixings. The media wall was designed to be both practical and visually striking, suitable for everyday family use.
Project Location – Bournemouth, Dorset
- Residential property in Bournemouth
- Open-plan living area requiring a feature wall that blends entertainment and heating
What Work Was Carried Out – Media Wall Design & Construction
The works included the full build-up of the media wall from initial framing through to final finishing.
Key elements of the installation included:
- Timber stud framework built to exact dimensions
- Structural support for a wall-mounted TV bracket
- Integrated electric fire unit installed within the media wall
- Custom recessed shelving to both sides of the feature wall
- Cable management for TV, power, and media connections
- Fire-rated and standard plasterboard installation as required
- Skimming and preparation ready for final decoration
The result is a fully bespoke media wall that fits the room perfectly and provides a high-end, built-in appearance.
Why a Bespoke Media Wall Was the Right Solution
Off-the-shelf TV units would not have achieved the clean lines or integrated look the client was after. A bespoke media wall allowed us to:
- Design around the exact TV and fire dimensions
- Hide all cables and sockets for a clutter-free finish
- Create symmetrical shelving for décor and storage
- Ensure correct clearances around the electric fire
- Deliver a feature wall that adds value and visual impact
This approach ensures the media wall looks like part of the original structure rather than a later addition.
