A TV feature wall turns the most-looked-at wall in your home into a finished centrepiece, with storage, display shelves and hidden cables built in. Here’s how to choose a TV feature wall for a Singapore HDB or condo living room: the three main types, how to size it to your TV, what you can customise, and what to prepare before installation.
TV feature wall vs TV console
A TV console is a low cabinet your TV stands on or hangs above. A TV feature wall goes further: a wall-mounted panel behind the TV, usually with a console, display shelves and space for hiding cables. It’s a quicker, more affordable way to get a built-in look without major renovation work.
3 types of TV feature wall
| Type | Height | What it is | Good for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-height feature wall | 178–244cm | A complete wall with a centre TV panel, display shelves and console | Making the TV wall the focal point of the room |
| Console feature wall | About 137cm | A wall-mounted panel and floating console in one | Most HDB and condo living rooms |
| Wall-mounted console | About 25cm | A floating console only, with the TV mounted on the wall above | A clean, minimal look |
Examples: full-height walls like Lumina and Mario; console feature walls like Kacey and Fiza; and wall-mounted consoles like Ziva and Zola.
How wide should a TV feature wall be?
A feature wall or console looks best when it’s wider than your TV. Aim for about 20 to 30cm wider than the screen.
| TV size | TV width (approx.) | Console width |
|---|---|---|
| 55″ | About 123cm | 150cm or wider |
| 65″ | About 144cm | 180cm or wider |
| 75″ | About 166cm | 200cm or wider |
| 85″ | About 189cm | 220cm or wider |
Most of our designs come in 4ft to 8ft widths, and we can make them to the exact width of your wall if you need something in between, wider or taller.
Height tip: keep the centre of the screen close to eye level when you’re seated on the sofa. A low console of about 40 to 45cm usually gets this right.
What you can customise
Most of our TV feature walls are made to order and can be customised. Every wall is different, so customisation is quoted separately based on your space.
Sized to your wall
Most designs come in 4ft to 8ft widths. Need something in between, wider or taller? We can make it to fit your living room.
Pick your finishes
Choose from wood grain, marble-look and two-tone finishes on selected designs, with fluted panels for added texture.
Curved edges & corners
Ask for rounded corners on both ends of the console for a softer, more premium look.
LED backlight
Add a warm LED glow behind the panel for a cosy, hotel-like feel in the evenings.
Hidden cables
A built-in media grommet routes your TV and device cables behind the panel, so they stay tidy and out of the way.
Storage that works
Mix display shelves, soft-closing glass-door cabinets and deep drawers to fit your media players, books and décor.

Before installation: what to prepare
- Measure your wall and take a few photos, straight-on and from the side.
- Share your wiring or piping plan. We need to know where it’s safe to drill.
- Plan your power points. Installation doesn’t include moving power points, so arrange this beforehand if your TV or console position needs one.
- Check the wall. Installation also doesn’t include adding extra wall support. If you have a drywall or partition, check that it can take the load, or arrange reinforcement first.
- Know your TV size and model, including whether it will be wall-mounted.
