For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

They definitely use this for some sort of carousel of pictures of their kids and family.

judging by the number of shoes piled up in the entryway, and the number of photos of different people on the walls(although hard to tell since they're blurred), I think it must be a small apartment with not enough bedrooms, so they've repurposed the lounge as a bedroom and the entryway as a lounge.

Only if you are watching from the doorway.

If you are watching from the landing where the pic was taken it looks ok.

I was more referencing the (on reflection, perhaps kinda niche) home theatre meme where people mount their TVs above fireplaces and attract the ire of the community for doing so

It doesnt seem too active, but it looks like there is a Lemmy community for it: !tvtoohigh@lemmy.world

Maybe if they had one that was big enough to fill it wall to wall (or as close as possible) instead of having gaps to either side (and it's not even centered)

Or just commit to its awfulness and tilt it two degrees

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

That I agree with.

Turn it vertically, have it randomize hi-def images of famous paintings on a very slow loop. I always wanted to do that.

Down in front!

Some design oddities here and there, but overall a clever use of space.

Wonder why they didn't centre the tv

Likely wasn't a stud where they were expecting one and instead of getting a different stand or something they were just like 🤷

I thought the couch placement might have factored in because the shelf below is centered but who knows?

They seem to love hanging blurred pictures.

Even the people on the TV are like "oh god, what are you doing!?"
