we've got the tv on a swivel mount in the corner. the corner is too small to mount the tv flush against either wall. and b/c of the room layout, this is really the only place the tv will work. so not ideal, but we are working with it. mounting the tv at an angle is working out great, we just need to figure out the wires mess still. and the tv stand needs replaced. this old one we had is 1. ugly and 2. too big.
i've been looking around for something with a small footprint, but i just didn't quite have a vision. and then... i saw this on urban outfitters (use the link for larger pictures of the item):
small footprint, i love midcentury modern furniture, and i loved the idea of also using it for a record player. so i sent the link over to JP to ask his opinion. and he one-upped me. apparently his parents have this piece sitting in their basement in need of some love and a new home.
i think some sanding, new stain, and new speaker cloth will do wonders for it - and it is real midcentury modern rather than a replica. and has sentimental value for JP (being from his house while growing up). i'm pretty excited about it and hopeful we can make it functional for what we need. (if not, i've got that urban outfitters piece bookmarked as a backup plan).
