Add\u00a0horizontal storage<\/h3>\n<p>Every living room needs storage space to prevent clutter and help you stay organized. Instead of relying on multiple small furniture pieces for storage, take advantage of the length of a wall with one long, integrated storage solution.<\/p>\n<p>A counter height and depth console is the right height for a flat screen TV and can be custom outfitted with closed and open storage.<\/p>\n<p>Mix cupboards, drawers and shelves based on your entertainment storage needs.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1094 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.organizedinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/entertainment-unit-fireplace-bar.jpg\" alt=\"Wall to wall entertainment unit\" width=\"720\" height=\"599\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.organizedinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/entertainment-unit-fireplace-bar.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.organizedinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/entertainment-unit-fireplace-bar-300x250.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/599;\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2. Install a floor-to-ceiling unit<\/h3>\n<p>Take advantage of vertical space by making your entertainment unit as tall as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Keep functional items for entertaining within reach, use open shelves for displaying and to store game systems, electronics, board games, etcetera behind closed doors.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Hide\u00a0a bed<\/h3>\n<p>Horizontal or vertical storage can be custom outfitted with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organizedinteriors.com\/wall-beds\/\">wall\u00a0bed<\/a> for overnight guests. Invisible when tucked away, a fold-out bed can be incorporated with plenty of storage built in around it.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Incorporate a bar<\/h3>\n<p>If your living room is not large enough for a home bar, no problem! You can add a mini-bar to your entertainment unit that allows you to easily mix drinks and serve guests without even leaving the room.<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to include under-mount cabinet lighting to enhance the bar\u2019s functionality and ambience.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1095 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.organizedinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/entertainment-unit-bar.jpg\" alt=\"Mini-bar built into an entertainment unit.\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.organizedinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/entertainment-unit-bar.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.organizedinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/entertainment-unit-bar-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/480;\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>5. Get cozy with a fireplace<\/h3>\n<p>An entertainment unit does more than just house\u00a0your TV and store your DVDs and Blu-ray discs.<\/p>\n<p>It also allows you to enjoy cozy features, such as a gas or electric fireplace, without requiring additional room. Warm up on a chilly night with a fireplace installed beneath the TV.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re considering adding an entertainment unit to your home, start by getting a f<a href=\"https:\/\/www.organizedinteriors.com\/consultation\/\">ree in-home design consultation<\/a> from Organized Interiors today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don\u2019t let a small space limit how you entertain.
