Let Samsung Be Your Next Interior Designer

Have you ever looked at your TV hanging on the wall at home and thought, "Wow, that is ugly." (I know I am constantly thinking about the beauty of my TV.). Well, apparently Samsung has, because they have recently released a TV that they intend to use as a solution to that problem. The technology is wrapped up in a QLED TV from their most recently released line. It can literally blend in with the wall that it's on.

Yes, that's an actual TV. No gimmicks (although I'm sure there's some post-shot editing involved), just a TV pretending to be the wall. It's in "ambient mode", a setting which kicks in when it's not being used to stream your favorite show. A simplified version of how it works: the owner of said TV takes a picture of it mounted on the wall using the Samsung SmartThings app. It will then take the color of the surroundings and match the background of the TV to the color of the wall. It seems like something straight out of the future to me. It's super slim chord helps keep the footprint of the TV small, to better immerse you in it's disguising ability. 

This isn't the only TV that Samsung has created with interior design in mind. Can you guess which one is the TV in the picture below?

Did you guess the big one in the middle? If so, you would be right. Samsung calls this one, "The Frame". (Get it? Because it looks like a picture frame?)  This one was created with the same intent in mind, to blend in with it's surroundings, only this time Samsung assumes you'll be putting your TV on your photo wall. The frame is interchangeable, so not matter what style you are going for with your room, the overall design can stay the same (at an extra $250 for each frame). It comes with pre-loaded art that can be programmed to display when you aren't watching TV, or you can always upload your own lovely art to display. 

Of course, if you would like one of the stealthy displays, you'll be dropping enough cash to go out and get a nice piece of art anyway (the Frame runs about $2,000 base price). But if you can take the hit, you'll have quite the piece to tie the living room decor together.
