Home Cinema Design & Installation
A home cinema sounds like an extravagance, but it’s not as crazy or outlandish an idea as you might think.
For some, a home cinema is a no-brainer. Movie buffs, TV fanatics, and music enthusiasts all benefit from having a dedicated space for sitting back, relaxing, and enjoying their choice of media.
For others, a home cinema improves their quality of life as much as it improves their enjoyment of a movie. With a home cinema, people with additional needs, or people caring for those with additional needs, can bring the joy of the big screen to their own home, turning what previously felt like an inaccessible luxury into a convenience-led experience that’s tailor-made for them.
No matter what your story, we can bring the best onscreen tales to you with the home cinema or media room installation of your dreams.
Dedicated space
Bring the beauty of the big screen to life in what was once a playroom as your children transition from dressing up as their heroes to watching them. Or give yourself the sanctuary you need in a disused attic conversion to enjoy your favourite shows. No matter what the requirement, you can transform a room of your house into a home cinema, giving you the best possible theatrical experiences right from your sofa.
Large screens or projectors
A key component of any cinema is the screen. Adding a large screen or projector to your cinema room will display your favourite movies or shows exactly as they’re meant to be seen - in high definition and without distraction. Eliminating glare through lighting control enhances your home cinema’s quality even further.
Controlled lighting
Skip the ads and get straight to the best bit - the anticipation paired with dimming lights. Recreate the dark, cosy ambience of a cinema by controlling or even completely eliminating ambient lighting during your screening. Then avoid the glare of the ‘big light’ as the credits roll by keeping the lights low as you head to bed.
Acoustically treated / surround sound
The sound quality of a cinema is unmatched. This can be recreated in your home by acoustically treating your dedicated home cinema space. This includes drowning out background noise and adding high quality speakers in strategic areas to take surround sound immersion to the next level.
SMART seating
For an uber-luxury experience, opt for smart seats that look and feel like real cinema seating. Recline without fear of the row behind and have your drink to hand in a built-in cup holder. Or pick the comfiest sofa on offer for a communal, family feel. The only popcorn down the sides of this seating is your own.
Home cinemas are designed to accurately reproduce the content you’re watching as it was intended to be viewed. If TV and film is a hobby for you, then upgrading the kit you watch this content on gives you the best experience possible. Home cinemas generally outperform commercial cinemas on several fronts, not least due to privacy and the ability to hone in on the standard of the room. You may also want a home cinema to make your viewing experiences social or as a incentive to get the whole family together in one room. There’s more than one reason why you might want a home cinema, but if you have space and budget it’s an excellent investment that’ll be paying off for years to come.
How much does a home cinema cost?
This depends. A dedicated home cinema is more expensive than a media room, but by how much is up to you. Prices range from £30,000 to over £100,000 depending on the level of luxury chosen.
Home cinemas are dedicated, purpose-built spaces that create the optimum environment in which to enjoy media. Media rooms are multi-use spaces where enjoying media forms only a single part of the room’s purpose. Media rooms are living rooms with more technical AV equipment.
How much does a media room cost?
Media rooms are more cost effective than home cinemas. A good media room can cost less than £10,000. The answer depends on your space and the spec of equipment you want or have budget for. We can work with most budgets.
