1. What is a TV background wall?
The TV background wall is a concept introduced in the decoration of public buildings. It mainly refers to the main wall in the living room, office and bedroom that can reflect your own image and style.
The TV background wall is one of the key points of the bedroom background wall decoration and occupies a very important position in the background wall design. The TV background wall is usually used to make up for the emptiness of the background wall in the TV area of the home space, and at the same time, it plays the role of modifying the background wall of the TV area.
The TV background wall is the face of the home and affects the overall appearance and beauty. A well-designed TV wall will be less lively without lights. Therefore, when designing the TV background wall, add lights.
2. Why should we add led light in the TV background wall?
Choosing the right lighting for the TV background wall can not only avoid eye fatigue and protect eyesight, but also effectively improve the beauty and comfort of the space, adding a romantic and warm scenery to home life.
2.1 TV wall lighting is closely related to human vision
In a dark environment, the pupils of the eyes will dilate to absorb more light to improve the recognition of objects in the dark, so that the light of the TV will become very dazzling in the dark, which is easy to damage the eyes and cause visual fatigue. If the TV is a strobe direct, fast flickering light source, the damage to the eyes is even more serious. Therefore, the main purpose of TV wall lighting is to relieve visual fatigue and protect our eyes when watching movies.
Lighting design pays attention to "ambient light". Adding background LED lights to the background wall of the TV can increase the recognition of the space in the dark, reduce the light and dark contrast between the TV screen and the surrounding environment, weaken the contrast, and make the screen picture softer and more pleasing to the eye.

2.2 TV wall lighting - ambient light in the living room
Lighting can be called "a master of atmosphere creation", and "ambient light" among the three major types of home lighting is very suitable for use in TV background walls. Because the TV background wall is not an area with frequent activities, the demand for brightness is not high. The effective coordination of light and wall layout, material, and color can effectively improve the beauty and comfort of the space, adding a romantic and warm scenery to home life.
3. The failed TV wall lighting design cases
When designing light for the TV background wall, the most difficult thing is not that there is no light, but that too many lights do not meet the aesthetic requirements, or are harmful to the eyes.
Let's look at some classic design failures:
3.1 The spotlight is too close to the wall, and the spot of the wall washing light is too bright, which is not only very dazzling, but also the light looks completely textureless.
3.2 The TV wall with bright surface materials such as ink marble, vitrified tile, jade tile, or custom cabinet with baking varnish is very easy to reflect light on the surface, which is prone to light pollution.
The unreasonable lighting design not only fails to show the beauty of the material itself, but also causes visual interference, making the background wall look cluttered and destroying the original beauty of the decorative background.
3.3 The spotlights on the TV background wall are too densely arranged and the brightness of the light source is too high, causing the entire background wall to glow white, which is visually uncomfortable, and the brightness is not aesthetically pleasing.
3.4 The light source is not selected correctly, the lampshade of the downlight is too shallow, or the anti-glare design is not made, resulting in serious glare and uncomfortable direct exposure to the human eye.
4. How to design the TV wall lighting?
4.1 The type of light source, lighting shape and light distribution method should be selected according to the art, wall materials and color matching of the overall space.
The lighting design of the TV wall is mainly to create a unique light and shadow effect, so it does not have high requirements for the brightness of the lighting, and the light should avoid direct exposure to the TV, audio and people's faces.
4.2 The light source of the TV background wall should preferably be in the form of diffuse reflection, which can not only emphasize the characteristics of the background but also avoid the interference of the direct light source on the TV and cause unnecessary glare.
A. When the three-dimensional effect of the background wall is weak, the lights can be arranged by wiping the wall, such as installing a lamp slot to wipe the wall, which can present a subtle three-dimensional effect;
B. When the background wall has a strong three-dimensional effect, the lighting can be arranged by washing the wall, such as installing a wall washer lamp to wash the wall to reduce the length of the shadow and reflect a strong sense of concave and convex.
PS: When using the wall-washing method to arrange lights, pay attention to the illumination angle of the light to avoid direct light on the TV screen and audio-visual equipment, which will cause light pollution such as light curtain effect and reflected glare, which will affect the best spatial visual effect.
4.3 You can choose another decorative lighting to embellish the TV background wall. If the background wall at home is made of bricks, stones, or has a fireplace, you can set some downlights and spotlights on the ceiling for accent lighting. The surface produces some arc lighting effects, which can not only attract people's attention, but also provide general lighting functions.
PS: When using downlights on the TV wall, pay attention to the selection of the beam angle of the lamps and the appropriateness of the distance from the wall.
5. Some classic design cases.
5.1 Led strip is the first choice of lighting for TV background wall
When it comes to TV background wall lighting, the first choice is the light strip. The light source of the light strip is hidden and not exposed, and the light is not dazzling or bright. The light strip emits evenly and softly, and the atmosphere is full. In addition, the linear lighting is high-quality and has a strong texture, which is especially suitable for the modern minimalist style.

▲The combination of light strips and wood grains brings a warm and comfortable feeling of enveloping.
▲ The light strip is combined with the soft package to create a silky and quiet light atmosphere.
5.2 Deeply hidden anti-glare spotlight, bright and not dry high-grade light
When choosing spotlights and downlights for the TV background wall, it is best to choose a style that is deeply hidden and anti-glare. The light source is deeply hidden in the lamp tube, not only the light is not dazzling, the light reflection is reduced, but also the advanced effect of "seeing the light but not the light" can be realized.
▲ For the spotlights on the TV background wall, you should choose a style that is deeply hidden and anti-glare.
In addition, it is not recommended to install the light source too close, 30-50cm away from the TV wall, which will help reduce the contrast of wall reflection and make the light look more textured.
5.3 Magnetic track lights, freely defined lighting modes
Magnetic track lights can be freely combined and moved, especially suitable for families who pursue personalized and changeable lighting solutions. For TV background wall lighting, the magnetic attraction scheme is very malleable, providing more possibilities for lighting design.
▲ There are many types of light sources that can be adapted to the magnetic track. In addition to spotlights, square box light sources with larger luminous surfaces, strip-shaped floodlights, and grille lights bring more varied lighting effects.
▲ The uneven lighting scheme is adopted on the magnetic attraction track, which makes the lighting more free and makes it easier to create a colorful atmosphere.
6. Precautions for the use of TV wall lighting
6.1 Avoid prolonged use
Although the beautiful TV background wall will be more eye-catching under the illumination of the light, it will help to show the owner's personality. However, watching for a long time will cause visual fatigue, which is not good for visual health, and it is not conducive to saving energy.
6.2 The lighting should be soft
The TV background wall is to set off and decorate the TV. When people watch TV, they can use soft reflected light as the background lighting. In addition, if there are too many auxiliary lights around the TV audio-visual wall, it will interfere with watching TV. Therefore, it is recommended that the light intensity of the TV background wall should be reduced to a minimum.
