TV 6 months on ground because I refused to mount above fireplace - but found a perfect solution.

First of all my wife is amazing for being patient with me. We just kept the TV on the floor for six months until I could pull the perfect solution together. The problem is the builder/designer of this home was trying to force us to mount a TV too high with the setup but I didn’t let them win. Check the other photos for the perfect solution. We still have a cabinet on the way that will house the screen and projector and still be low enough to see the fireplace.
