Calacatta Porcelain TV Unit | Matt Anthracite Media Console

We completed a bespoke TV unit combining an acoustic timber-slat backdrop, Calacatta marble side panels and an anthracite console with brass reveals and a black marble top. Concealed linear lighting between the marble panels and beneath the console gives the living room a monumental symmetry and a modern luxury character.

Our aim was to create a sculptural media wall by combining natural timber slats with the elegance of Calacatta marble, the contrast of black marble and brass detailing. Concealed service channels and a lightweight, wall-mounted console bring functional, sophisticated and timeless architectural value to luxury homes.

Design Decisions That Transform the Space

TV Unit with an Acoustic Timber-Slat Backdrop, Gold-Veined Calacatta Marble Side Panels and a Brass-Accented Anthracite Console

This TV unit combines the refinement of natural textures with the crisp lines of modern luxury. Floor-to-ceiling acoustic oak/walnut slats create a vertical rhythm behind the screen. White Calacatta porcelain-marble panels with gold/amber veining flank the centre symmetrically. A continuous floating console below combines matt anthracite lacquer, brass profiles and a polished black marble top. Concealed warm linear LEDs at 2700K–3000K illuminate the vertical timber–marble junctions and the base beneath the console, giving the space a bold, sculptural, prestigious and welcoming contemporary luxury character.

Material and Colour Balance

Natural oak/walnut vertical acoustic timber slats extend to the ceiling, adding depth to the TV backdrop.
Gold-veined white Calacatta marble/large-format porcelain panels frame the screen symmetrically with warm veining.
Polished black marble (Sahara Noir/Nero Marquina) adds depth to the continuous console top.
Brushed brass/gold metal reveal profiles create a refined transition between the top and cabinet fronts.
Matt anthracite/graphite lacquer fronts and carcass provide tactile contrast.
Concealed warm linear LEDs at 2700K–3000K run along the vertical bevelled junctions between timber and marble and beneath the console.
Light beige marble flooring, a taupe textured rug and a black marble coffee table with a gold base complete the room’s refined palette.

Architectural Composition and Spatial Hierarchy

Axial symmetry and depth: the rhythmic timber centre and broad marble side panels establish a monumental, carefully balanced symmetry.
Vertical light reveals: concealed LED lines between the timber and marble visually increase ceiling height, creating an architectural portal of light.
A floating horizontal contrast: concealed lighting beneath the console softens the visual weight of the black and anthracite volume, making it appear light and elegantly suspended above the floor.

Technical and Functional Details

Steel framing and mechanical anchors: large marble/porcelain slabs and the wide floating console are secured to reinforced steel framing anchored into the wall.
Concealed services and ventilation channel: TV brackets, electrical outlets and LED drivers are integrated into the technical void behind the acoustic slats, keeping all cables out of sight.
Brass-edged, push-to-open fittings: handleless push-to-open hardware and soft-close hinges maintain the simplicity of the console fronts.

Project Notes
  • Floor-to-ceiling vertical acoustic panels in natural oak/walnut were installed behind the TV.
  • White Calacatta porcelain-marble panels with gold veining frame the screen symmetrically.
  • Polished black marble cladding was selected for the continuous console top.
  • Brushed brass/gold metal reveal profiles separate the top from the cabinet fronts.
  • Matt anthracite lacquer fronts were used on the console carcass and face.
  • Concealed warm linear LED lighting at 2700K–3000K runs along the vertical timber–marble junctions and beneath the console.
  • Large panels and the wide floating console are supported by concealed steel framing anchored into the wall.
  • TV and lighting services are concealed in a technical channel behind the timber slats.
  • Handleless push-to-open fittings and soft-close mechanisms preserve the clean cabinet fronts.
