Watching television has become a favourite pastime of recent decades. It is a source of entertainment, education, news, sport, weather and current affairs. It can easily convey a message to the masses, it can make us laugh or cry, and inform us of what's going on in the world. Television is also a great way to wind down and relax after a hard day at work or on a lazy weekend lying on the couch, watching our favourite programs or sport. As we spend so much time in front of the T.V. it seems sensible to create a relaxing space, with comfortable couches and chairs, and undistracting decorations. The position of the T.V. in the room is of ample importance, as glare from windows will hinder the quality of viewing. Sound is also a big element to T.V, especially for watching movies. As home entertainment becomes ever popular, take the time to research the best T.V. and surround sound system. Change is as good as holiday, so don't be afraid to try new things in your lounge room. These examples of rooms for watching television are sure to inspire you to add a little feng shui to your space. Read on to see more.

We have all fallen asleep watching T.V. before, so naturally, T.V. is a great way to help us switch off at night, and progressively drift off to sleep. A television in the bedroom can make us feel a little special, knowing we can lay up in the comfort and warmth of our own bed, watching our favourite programs to our heart's content.
Television in an office lunch room is also a great place to relax and switch off for a moment.
