Cables Inside the House Disrupting the View and Daily Activities? Conceal Those Cables with These Various Ideas!
Various electronic devices are bound to have cables scattered all around the house. Whether it's cables on the floor or walls, it can often be quite disruptive to activities and aesthetics. This can make the living space feel uncomfortable, as one might trip over the cables or accidentally damage them. However, there are many creative, simple, and beautiful ways to hide these cables, as shown in some of the ideas below.
PVC Cable Covers on Walls or Floors
PVC cable covers have become a convenient solution for concealing exposed cables in a room. PVC can be customized in terms of placement and direction. You can camouflage PVC wrapping around your electronic cables and attach it to the lower part of the wall, then paint it to match the wall color. These covers can also be placed on the floor, especially at wall-floor intersections, to make them less visible and safe from children's reach.
Attach to the Wall and Decorate with Unique Shapes
Cables running along the wall can be attached to the wall of the house. Uniquely, the wall attachments can have shapes resembling leaves or bird silhouettes, adding visual interest to the wall and making the cables look like decorative elements.
Arrange Cables into an Artistic Composition
This arrangement of cables on the wall appears as if it's a mural, but it's actually made from cables shaped into the silhouettes of buildings. The black cables against the white wall create a striking and appealing effect. This not only organizes the cables to prevent tripping hazards and disruptions but also enhances the interior design of the home.
Wrap Cables with Thread
Wrap horizontally-running electronic cables in your home with thread. Instead of directly wrapping them with thread, the cables are enclosed in plastic tubing first before being covered in thread. You can then create braided patterns, as shown in the picture. Besides the unique appearance, the colors of the thread can add a cheerful touch to the room, and the cables won't get tangled.
Attach Cables to Surrounding Furniture
This idea is quite straightforward. Attach disruptive cables to furniture using adhesive tape or cable clips. For example, you can secure the table lamp's cable to the table leg, ensuring it doesn't hang loosely and disrupt daily activities. Although it may not look aesthetically pleasing by itself, you can add colorful tape to make the attached cables more visually appealing.
Electrical Terminal Box and Cable Coiling
With a simple box, cable chaos can be tamed. Inside the box, cables are not just stored but also coiled around a board. This keeps long cables from dangling all over the place and looking unsightly. Having a cable coiling box can make rooms with multiple electrical needs, such as a home office, look more visually appealing and make it easier to plug and unplug devices without tangled cables.
Shelf with Hidden Cable and Gadget Storage
Electrical terminals can also be attached to a shelf that's directly connected to the wall's power outlet. The terminals are attached to the shelf, and you can use them to charge various electronic devices such as tablets, smartphones, or laptops. This allows you to leave your electronic devices safely stored within the closed shelf.
