The Homedia Television takes the design of traditional TV sets and throws it out the window. This retro, yet modern TV set was created by Robert Bronwasser of Danish design firm Smool. With so many great TV shows on the box these days, it was only a matter of time before someone revamped traditional television designs for the modern home.
The resulting design turns the television into a piece of furniture, as well as an entertainment device. With its bright yellow legs and sky blue material hood, the Homedia certainly makes an impact. The use of the material cover on this design also means you can change the color to suit your home decor. The Homedia design is due to be shown at the Milan Design week after which I'm sure this design will be in high demand.
