The problem is all too familiar: your home technology is spread across multiple pieces of uncoordinated furniture and you have cables and extension leads trailed across the living room.
Sound familiar? If so, a bespoke media wall could transform your living room into an organised and attractive entertainment space. By bringing your television, storage, display shelving and multimedia equipment together into one place, we can help you to create a cleaner and more coordinated space.
The cost of a bespoke media wall can vary depending on the size, layout, materials and features that you choose but at Mirror Image, our prices start from £2,500. Larger or more complex designs can cost more and in this blog we want to guide you through some of the factors that impact the cost.
Size and Complexity
The biggest factor is the overall size of your installation. Some people opt for a compact unit designed around their television and a small number of shelves. Other people like the idea of a full-width media wall that contains several cupboards, drawers and display areas to store all of their belongings.
The shape of your room is another factor that will influence the design. All of our furniture is built bespoke and can be designed to fit perfectly around alcoves, chimney breasts, uneven walls and any other architectural features your room may have. These spaces may require more detailed planning, but a made-to-measure design will allow you to maximise the space you have more effectively than standard furniture.
Storage and Display Features
The amount and type of storage that you include within your design will also affect the final price. Many customers opt for a mix of enclosed cupboards for their games, cables and accessories, open shelving for books and decorations, and drawers for smaller items.
Adjustable shelving gives you much greater flexibility, but the design should always be based on what you are looking to store – not simply filling every inch of available wall space.
Materials, Finishes and Lighting
Your choice of materials and finishes will also contribute to the overall cost of your unit. We have a wide selection of colours, wood effects, glass elements, handles and decorative panels that allow us to perfectly blend your media wall with the rest of your living room.
By integrating lighting into your design, we can also help you create an attractive focal point in the room and ensure display shelves are more prominent. Lighting and additional electrical work should be considered when setting your budget and our team can advise on what is required as part of the design process.
Cable Management and Technology
A well-designed media wall should keep visible wires to a minimum. Cables can often be concealed behind units, panels or false walls, creating a neater appearance.
It is also sensible to consider future technology upgrades. Allowing additional space around your television or within equipment compartments may prevent the design from becoming unsuitable when you replace a device.
Request a Detailed Media Wall Quote
Because every media wall is individually designed, an accurate price can only be provided after discussing your room, equipment and preferred features. A detailed quotation should clearly explain what is included, helping you compare different options without unexpected costs.
At Mirror Image, we design and manufacture bespoke media walls at our Norwich workshop before they are installed by our own skilled team. Book a free design consultation to discuss your ideas, explore suitable materials and receive a transparent quotation for your new media wall.
