Chinese classical TV cabinet and ordinary TV cabinet show essential differences in cultural carrying and functional positioning. As a modern translation carrier of traditional furniture art, the design language of Chinese classical TV cabinet integrates the architectural mortise and tenon structure and the aesthetics of utensil decoration. It reconstructs the spatial proportion through components such as tooth plate, head and waist, forming a vertical extension of the visual center of gravity. Ordinary TV cabinets focus on functional modular design, emphasize compatibility with electronic equipment and cable management efficiency, and the form composition follows the minimalist principle of modern industrial design.
In terms of material technology, Chinese classical TV cabinet continues the hardwood frame paneling process, and the surface treatment adopts lacquer polishing or hot waxing techniques to present the wood texture. The structural nodes retain the traces of manual shovel chiseling as a cultural symbol. Ordinary TV cabinets generally use artificial boards and metal connectors, and achieve mass production consistency through standardized cutting and automatic edge banding. In terms of functional scalability, classical styles often integrate antique shelves or screen elements to weaken the presence of electronic equipment; modern styles are equipped with adjustable shelves and hidden sockets to strengthen the support and integration of audio-visual equipment.
The difference in environmental adaptation is reflected in the spatial narrative logic and the requirements for use and maintenance. As a symbol of home culture, the Chinese classical TV cabinet requires the overall space to echo in terms of lighting configuration and furnishing style. Daily maintenance needs to avoid sudden temperature changes and chemical cleaning agents. Ordinary TV cabinets focus on environmental universality, and wear-resistant surface treatment technology reduces maintenance complexity.
