From mounts to TV stands to some nostalgic music players, I found some solutions that would fit right at home with our cork flooring, wood paneling, giant expanse of windows and open floorplan.

As a bonus, products that would be easy to retrofit into our one-story flat-roof home with no crawl space scored extra points.
