Television mounting devices that can be stand-alone wall mounted, wall mounted with furniture positioned in front, or attached/mounted to furniture, and that also accommodate differing types of television or other electronics and wires in an efficient and visually appealing manner.

A system for crown molding that enables safely incorporating electrical and communications cabling within crown molding by creating one or more protected paths which inherently prevent overly sharp bends in crown molding corners and by mitigating damage from penetrating punctures through a decorated face designed to fracture when improperly penetrated by a screw or nail, and enables the secure installation of hardware either concealed within the molding or securely and favorably positioned through the decorative face to view or sense a room, and enables additional cable capacity that is concealed within a light reflector to increase lighting efficacy as well as power and data delivery capacity.

A future-enabled rowhouse or similar residential unit is provided that may include a site-adaptable chassis for a rowhouse or similar residential unit construction that can be easily adjusted to varying site conditions (e.g., lot widths and depths) at the time of construction and that allows for cost-effective future reconfiguration of building systems and space configuration over the life of the building.

A crown molding assembly that enables safely incorporating electrical and communications cabling within the crown molding by providing segregated compartments for electrical and copper communications cabling, wherein the decorative face is formed of a composite of fiber reinforcing polymer (FRP) including a fiber-reinforced structure having an increased directionality of said reinforcing fibers causing the decorative face to fracture upon being pierced by a fastener in a manner that renders the damaged section of the decorative face unable to hold the fastener, protecting the electrical cables and any other equipment located behind the decorative face from damage, and enables the secure installation of hardware either concealed within the molding or securely and favorably positioned through the decorative face to view or sense a room, and enables additional cable capacity that is concealed within a light reflector to increase lighting efficacy and power and data delivery capacity.

A line management device for guiding local distribution of a utility line includes a main body with a middle portion, a first end portion and a second end portion. The middle portion includes a first end, a second end and a contoured surface extending between the first end and the second end. The contoured surface directs the utility line in relation to an object in a local environment. The first end portion abuts the first end of the middle portion and includes a first exterior surface shaped to direct the utility line toward the middle portion and to obstruct the utility line from passing over the first end portion. The second end portion abuts the second end of the middle portion and includes a second exterior surface shaped to direct the utility line toward the middle portion and to obstruct the utility line from passing over the second end portion.
