A Modern TV Cabinet and Fireplace for the Living Room
The photos show a beautiful project that Zaim has realized. In the living room, a custom-made TV cabinet and fireplace can be admired. This project uses carefully selected materials that contribute to a harmonious atmosphere in the room. The combination of design and functionality makes this conversion a real eye-catcher.
The Construction: Solid and Aesthetic
The construction starts off simple, yet elegant, with a strong wooden frame that serves as the base for the surround. The frame provides enough strength to safely support both the TV and the fireplace. MDF Primed 9 mm panels were then used to finish the whole thing off. These panels were sawn by OPMAATZAGEN.nl, which ensures that everything fits as intended.
Color and Finish
The MDF panels are painted in a neutral, modern color that fits in nicely with the other elements of the living room. The sleek finish of the furniture ensures that the whole looks slick and is easy to adjust to personal taste.
A Unique Atmosphere in the Living Room
The surround fits perfectly into the living room, a space that is often the center of coziness. The integrated fireplace adds a warm and inviting vibe. Whether you are spending an evening with friends or just relaxing in front of the TV, the ambiance that this fireplace brings makes every occasion special.
Flexibility and Creativity: The Benefits of DIY
Realizing this project yourself means that you have complete control over the design and dimensions. This allows you to adapt the piece of furniture to the specific dimensions of your living room and personal preference. Using MDF Primed offers many advantages here. This type of wood is not only cost-effective, but also easy to work with, which makes it ideal for custom projects.
The Style: Modern Inclusive
The end result exudes a modern, sleek style that integrates harmoniously within a contemporary interior. The conversion uses straight lines and subtle colours that look minimalistic yet refined. It adds a contemporary flair to any living room.
Advantages of MDF Primed 9 mm
MDF Primed 9mm 1: These panels are pre-painted, allowing you to start finishing your project straight away without any additional preparatory steps. This allows you to focus on the creative elements of your design.
MDF Primed 9 mm 2: The material is easy to work with and very dimensionally stable. Thanks to these properties you can realize complex designs that seamlessly match your vision.

Step by step guide
Preparation
Make a drawing of how you want it. Make sure you measure everything correctly. I ordered the MDF boards from OPMAATZAGEN.nl, and I just got the slats from the hardware store. If you calculate in advance (approximately) how many slats you need, it will save you an extra trip to the hardware store.
Montage
- First mount the 2 long slats on the wall. I used 3 screws per slat, that's enough. Of course, also measure the distance well and make sure it hangs straight. I used a laser for this. Then attach the short slats. I used 2 screws per slat, 1 diagonally from above and 1 diagonally from below. Then the 2 long slats at the front and the slats across the width at the front. When all the slats are attached, you can screw the MDF onto it.
Finish
If you are going to paint, first smooth the screws and seams. We have wallpapered with wallpaper that was quite thick. We glued this on immediately. Because the wallpaper is thick, the screw holes and seams are not visible.
