Crestview is one of central Austin’s most beloved established neighborhoods — a charming grid of mid-century bungalows and updated cottages along Burnet Road and Anderson Lane, tucked between Allandale to the west and North Loop to the east. With its walkable streets, proximity to the Crestview Shopping Center, and the kind of tight-knit community feel that makes longtime residents never want to leave, it attracts homeowners who invest thoughtfully in their spaces. When a Crestview homeowner reached out to Bat City TV about installing their Hisense Canvas TV, they were after the same thing every art TV buyer wants — a display that disappears into the wall when it’s not in use, looking like a framed piece of art rather than a dormant screen. The finished install delivered exactly that, and the side profile tells the whole story.
The install was a 55-inch Hisense Canvas TV mounted flush to a drywall wall in a Crestview living room — and the detail that stood out most was just how slim the finished setup looked from the side. The Hisense Canvas is engineered to sit tight against the wall with minimal gap between the back of the panel and the surface, and when it’s mounted correctly on the right flat-profile bracket, the display has almost no visible depth from a side angle. We used a low-profile fixed mount that held the Canvas as close to the wall as possible, routed all cables cleanly behind the display, and finished the install with the kind of attention to detail a gallery-style TV demands. The Crestview homeowner had a 55-inch Canvas sitting so close to the wall it looked painted on — and in art mode, the room’s character was only enhanced by it.
The Hisense Canvas belongs to a growing category of lifestyle displays — alongside the Samsung Frame and LG Gallery Series — designed to live on your wall as a permanent design element rather than a piece of technology you tolerate between uses. Getting the slim-profile look right requires choosing the right mount: a standard articulating arm holds the TV too far from the wall, while a properly spec’d low-profile fixed mount lets the panel sit within an inch of the surface. We evaluate the VESA pattern, the TV’s depth, and the wall surface before recommending a mount for any art-mode display, and we always prioritize the flush-mount result that makes the Canvas look its best. From the side, a properly mounted Hisense Canvas is genuinely striking — the thinness of modern OLED-adjacent panels at this profile is something you have to see to appreciate.
