We have a massive screen in our theater, over 120" and even sitting 20' from it, I get a migraine. Our friend didn't have a theater, so he decided to convert his dining room (of all places) into a theater using blackout drapes and the same size TV your hubby wants...vicious headaches all around, but he is in hog heaven. Boys and their toys...

My favourite thing about backyard retreats is that you can take a break from the constant barrage of digital noise we are surrounded by everyday - a TV outside would detract from this. I think TV's definitely belong indoors!

For too long the lounge/TV room has been dominated by both a black hole (the TV in off-mode) and furniture facing the TV which makes the use as a lounge room cumbersome. This design uses the fabulous Samsung frame TV as well as swivel chairs to swivel to the TV in TV mode and back to face the other chair and sofa (not shown) in the conversation mode. The Samsung frame TV sensor and remote connector box are another bonus together with the programmable art including family photos.

I think it's too high as both tv and as art work. People always hang art work too high. If it's in a standing space (like hallway with nothing below) the middle of the picture should be approximately 150cm from ground. But if designed to be viewed from a sitting position or placed over furniture its usually significantly lower.
