How to Place a Grand Piano in Living Room

Some families enjoy music and want to include percussive instruments in their decor. The musical instrument can be used as decoration and wall art with a musical theme. Several interiors that featured a grand piano, a guitar, or other instruments have been seen.

Almost as important as the type of piano you purchase is deciding where to put it. You will only get the most joyful musical experience possible from your piano if it is suited to the space, it is located in. There are numerous key considerations when situating a grand piano in a living room. A grand piano need to be placed in a way that maintains its integrity, shields it from harm, and allows it to produce the best sound if you want to invest in one. Consider the following specifications for a piano while assessing your living room. Looking for a Grand Piano in Dubai, UAE. Melodica Music Store has all kind of options available for you.

Establishing a Focus Point

Determining a focal point is one of our top priorities when creating a space. The initial thing you will see when you enter a room is its focal point, which impacts the rest of the design choices. For example, your living room's grand piano might become the ideal focal point. To make your piano the center of attention in the room, use these tips:

Place your piano in front of its own light to make it stand out. This might be underneath a chandelier, a giant arc floor lamp, or a ceiling light.

Give it room. Ensure the piano has a designated "place" in the space and isn't pressed against anything. Place colorful images on the wall behind your piano or put a colorful material on the bench to draw attention.

 

Flooring Materials

The material below your grand piano can significantly impact how it sounds. Whether or not a piano will be present, I typically specify hard floor surfaces, such as marble, ceramic tile, or hardwood, when creating a music room. In addition, the floor should be covered with a carpet, rug, or other acoustically absorbent material in the middle.

The goal is to reduce reflections by having sound absorption in the center of the floor while maintaining more active edges for resonance. Use a second area rug underneath the piano that is big enough to cover the piano's complete footprint if the best place for your piano needs to be farther out into the room for the instrument to be put on the carpet or rug.

 

Temperature Regulation

The ideal environment for piano storage is a steady temperature of 70–72° F. Any more or lower than that may throw off the tuning, erode the delicate interior glue, and worsen long-term wood deterioration. Installing a specialized device inside the piano that regulates the interior temperature may be a good idea if you want to put the piano in your living room but are unsure about the temperature and humidity equation. It would help if you never placed your piano by a window, even when you want it in your living room. Instead, allow a player to read the music by natural light; this sounds like an excellent idea. However, Windows can let in drafts and humidity, two things you must absolutely avoid for your pricey instrument.

 

Location

Even though a piano could appear lovely next to a window, never place one in the sun. The value may be impacted, and fading will result. Also, keep the piano away from exterior walls since this may expose it to various temperature swings. Finally, never put the piano too close to a heat source since the airflow could dry it out.

Avoid positioning the piano in the direct direction of the airflow by paying attention to where the air conditioning and heating vents are positioned. The piano will detune more quickly as a result of this. This is why. Wood, which can absorb and release moisture, serves as the piano's sounding board. One of the leading causes of out-of-tune pianos is the sounding board's expansion and contraction due to changes in humidity levels. The total moisture in the air is proportional to its temperature. Therefore, humidity may and frequently does increase in warmer weather.

A hinged lid on the grand piano swings opens to one side to let sound out. The lid's open side should be directed toward the seating area or, at the very least, the middle of the space. Never put seats on the opposite side since the sound will suffer. Instead, consider making a designated seating area if the space is ample.
