What happens here

Construct a recessed box within the wall framing to accommodate a large television. The internal dimensions of the box should be 45 inches vertically (rough-to-rough) and 66 inches horizontally, to fit a 75-inch TV (66x38 inches) with 2 inches of clearance on all sides. Use 2x lumber for the top and bottom framing of the box. The interior of the box can be clad with fluted, black-stained wood panels, while the perimeter and any integrated shelves will feature natural wood finish for contrast.

Goal: Build a recessed TV enclosure within the wall structure.
