an unsafe mess because people are
limited to object spacing due to the
length of some cables
6. Research findings
Mantle piece effect
There is a useful unconscious use of the TV
cabinet
Families would park their car keys, hair
straightners or xbox controllers on the unit

7. Insights Design Challenges
Some mature families like to A solution that will provide families some space
decorate their TV units like and freedom to decorate their units
some sort of personal shrine
Families connect several devices A solution that will enable a safer, easier and
together within the TV unit but is cleaner management of connecting devices within
messy sometimes the unit
Mature families unconsciously A solution that will enable people to continue to
use the TV unit as a place to short term park belongings without sacraficing
temporarily store belongings the form of the TV unit
Some people want the wall mount A solution that will enable people to achieve
TV look but still need storage for a wall mount look and use storage at the
other devices same time
