With mATX or ITX you can make a shockingly small and attractive computer; examples include this mATX case or this ITX case. People have even designed 3d printable cases, plans for laser cut/CNC acrylic and metal, etc.. If that's not small or classy enough, the miniPC market has really taken off and depending on how modest your needs are, you can get by with things like Zimaboards or go all the way to something like the MINISFORUM AI X1 Pro - a very capable machine that has an Oculink port that allows you to connect an external GPU if you need even more power.
Generally speaking you're never driving a media PC hard enough for the fans to ramp up, but if you somehow are, just buy quality fans and/or watercooling. I can speak for Noctua fans not just being a meme; they are actually very quiet.
I have a small keyboard with a built in trackpad. It's a bit bigger than a TV remote but not obnoxiously so, but given you get the ability to actually write stuff in instead of using an onscreen keyboard with an IR remote it's a worthwhile trade.
