The keys to a fun and functional media center are cabinets, drawers, and shelves that can hold all of your stuff.
Measure Up
The first step in deciding on a media center is finding the right cabinetry. Make sure your cabinetry can hold the size and number of items you own -- or plan to own. Be sure you have enough spaces for power cords, surge protectors, and cables. It's likely that your next television will be larger and thinner, so plan accordingly. Also, allow enough airflow to prevent the equipment from overheating.
Mix and Match
Pair a wall-mounted TV with a storage-savvy credenza. Use a combination of open shelves with baskets and cabinets to organize movies, CDs, and books. The top of the credenza is ideal for displaying accessories or framed photos.
Tip: Avoid glare by placing the TV so that it can be viewed from multiple spots in the room without the sun reflecting off the screen.
Undercover Media
If you're building a custom media center, like this one, make a list of all the things you'll want to store along with your TV, including stereo and gaming systems, DVD players, and the accessories and extras that go along with them. Once you have your list, you'll know how to plan your storage strategy. Also consider if you want your TV to be visible all the time. If you want the ability to hide it, plan for cabinet doors.
