Many customers who visit our showroom ask, “Should TV stands be high or low?”
TV stands have a primary purpose, to hold your television and act as a storage solution for other entertainment gear. You'll find that TV stands are available in high and low designs. When designing the perfect living room, one of the key decisions you'll need to make is what type of TV stand to choose.
In this article, we'll explore some of the pros and cons of each option and provide some helpful tips for selecting the ideal TV stand height for your space. Understanding the impact of TV stands’ length can help you create a great entertainment setup for your home.
If you're looking to buy a TV stand, you'll want to ensure it's at the appropriate height for your home. There are a few things to consider when choosing a TV stand:
The height of your TV stand depends on a few factors. For starters, if you have a big TV, you'll want to guarantee enough room on top of the stand by purchasing something like the Military TV Stand by Eichholtz. But even if you have a smaller TV, you need enough space for accessories like cables and remotes.
You also need to consider whether or not this is a permanent installation; if so, make sure that the height of your stand will accommodate any changes in furniture placement over time. As a general rule of thumb, the middle of your screen should be positioned at or just below eye level.

Chat NowOne of the biggest mistakes you can make when decorating is to underestimate the importance of furniture placement. The height and style of your furniture impact how a room feels.
Low stands can make a small space feel claustrophobic, while higher racks might make a space feel overwhelming. We frequently concentrate on the upper half of what we view because of the way our eyes naturally focus. This means that if you have high furniture in a small room, it will appear even smaller than it is and vice versa.
Low TV stands create a modern and minimalist look that complements various home decor styles. By taking up less visible space, they provide the impression of a grander space. We highly recommend Porada's Bayus TV Stand. The golden details on its legs are a lovely touch to your home's decor.
A high TV stand can provide a better viewing angle for your TV, which helps reduce neck strain and eye fatigue. When the TV is set at a higher level, it can be more comfortable to watch, especially for more prolonged periods. If you have children or pets at home, an elevated TV stand can help keep the TV out of reach. This reduces the risk of accidents or damage to the TV.
We recommend you take a look at our interior design project portfolio. We used a variety of TV stands in our portfolio so you can find what works best for your entertainment centre.
At FCI, we pride ourselves on our commitment to quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. Whether you're looking for a new TV stand or other furniture for your room, our interior designers can assist you in making wise decisions.

Deciding on an interior design style and the right furniture to complement it can be difficult, especially if you don't have a background in design or architecture. And when it comes down to it, having a professional look at your space will make all the difference in the world.
In addition to helping with furniture selection and placement, we can also help streamline any aspects of the process that might otherwise get overwhelming—for example, choosing paint colours or deciding which lighting fixtures would look best in each room.
The decision of whether TV stands should be high or low depends on personal preferences and the specific viewing setup. It is essential to choose a high-quality TV stand that not only supports your television securely but complements your living room's aesthetic.
At FCI, we offer a wide range of high-quality TV stands designed to meet different needs and preferences.
