Hi all,
Just about to renovate our front room and need advice on how to avoid horrible cables everywhere!

Just about to renovate our front room and need advice on how to avoid horrible cables everywhere!
We’ve an old gas fire in a fireplace we are removing, so will have an empty fireplace with a chimney breast.
Plan is for the TV to be on the chimney breast. My son will use the room to play his PS console, so I am working through options for where to house his console to avoid messy cables. Will obviously need a plug point and an hdmi port.
We could create shelves where the fire currently is, and run a cable through the flue and to the shelf? Though the PS4 is tall and awkward.
Alternative idea is to run a hdmi wallface outside the house and to the left (for example) then back in for the PS to sit on a shelf/unit - allowing us to make the fireplace more decorative?
Any thoughts on the wbove, or other ideas very welcome!!

I have no idea about the quality, but just thought that something like this has to exist.0
