Project 1 - Family media room

3M square media room, for the family to watch some television but mostly for gaming and watching movies. The screen is mounted on a pullout mount so the screen can be angled into the room a little more, at the same time an LCR speaker bar has been mounted to the screen so the sound is aimed in the same direction as well as saving space.

Project 2 - Home Cinema room on third story

Third story large loft space converted into an informal home cinema room with bar for entertaining, watching sports and movies.

Project 3 - Flat screen & speaker bar install into disused chimney breast

A simple installation of a flat screen and LCR speaker bar to be flush mounted to a disused chimney breast. As it is very destructive and messy to install it into the chimney it was decided to build out from the chimney, plaster and make good ready for decorating leaving a neat & tidy solution as you can see.

Project 4 - Dedicated Home Cinema room in loft conversion

This project was a loft that the client planned on converting into a dedicated home cinema room with a masking screen and projector with autoscope to give 16:9 widescreen and 2.35:1 cinemascope so it's possible to watch high definition television without squashing or stretching the picture and then watch a Full HD movie without the black bars top & bottom of the picture. As you can see we started with an empty loft which needed flooring, stud work and re-enforcement of subwoofer enclosures and then sound isolation treatment.
All cables were run back to an area that would eventually be the equipment rack. Once the room was decorated the speakers, projector screen and motorised projector drop were installed.

Project 5 - Dedicated Home Cinema room on third floor

This third story room needed to be split into two rooms so we built a stud wall up against the chimney breast splitting the room into one third/two thirds. we took the floor up and installed sound isolation treatments and additional impact flooring. the projector was installed 10 metres back from the front of the room which housed nine home cinema seats installed on risers so every occupant has a perfect view of the projector screen. With 7.2 surround sound provided by hand made in wall speakers and huge reserves of power this dedicated home cinema room has given years of reliable, high quality and thrilling movie watching to the client.

Project 6 - Multi-room audio, Surround sound & Cinema installation into a Villa

The client approached Home Cinema by Design having purchased a villa in Portugal that he and his family wanted screens in all bedrooms, surround sound system in the lounge and a Cinema room in the basement. After the initial site visit, we started the planning and system design. Whilst onsite and the client back in the UK we worked with his interior designer to create a great living space whilst integrating their automated gadgets with our own. Seven flatscreen televisions, all with FreeSat HD integrated, were installed in the bedrooms, kitchen and lounge, the lounge had the addition of a relatively aesthetically sympathetic surround sound system installed as you can see by the 4" spherical speakers. The lounge system also provided a second zone for listening to iPods, Sonos multi-room music system and radio outside around the pool and chill out area. Lastly the basement was converted into a dedicated but informal cinema room with a 3M wide motorised in-ceiling projector screen & 7.2 surround sound system. All of the automation, lighting, security cameras, air conditioning and cinema controls are provided by a touch screen remote control that you can also surf the internet on.
