A necessity for comfort & space efficiency started it all
The Issue
In 2016 after moving into a small condo with a friend, we came to the sad realization that if we were to mount the TV where intended, on a main wall in the living room, we would have to give up the ability to have two couches. Sharing a couch simply wasn’t an option... Mounting our TV onto one of the columns would solve our dilemma. Born, was the first prototype of Pillar Mount.
The Solution
Rugged and not the least bit refined, it consisted of a standard store bought TV mount, some 2x4s and a few cargo straps from the back of the car. One week went by, then two, half expecting the TV to fall from the column in the middle of the night, to our surprise it held strong! It was the focal point of the condo, presenting as a cool floating TV when people entered. It became a topic of conversation and envy. Over the next year, the refinement process began, 3D printing brackets and mechanisms to make the mount look and perform like a polished product. After much trial and error, the first commercial version of the Pillar Mount was released for sale in 2018. It consisted of a very similar concept to the initial 2x4 prototype, but with some much needed polishing & refinement.
