HOME THEATER DESIGN BRINGS A BETTER MOVIE EXPERIENCE RIGHT TO YOUR HOUSE.  

Movies are a unique medium; it is an art form that incorporates all of our senses in the act of storytelling. Film has grown into the most meaningful art form, a universal vocabulary transcending borders. There is a sort of mysticism in a medium that can make us cry, laugh, shriek in horror, and cheer with gusto – often in the same moment.  Francis Ford Coppola expressed it succinctly: “I think cinema, movies, and magic have always been closely associated. The very earliest people who made film were magicians.”

While a great movie can move you in any format, the act of watching in a movie house enhances the experience. A big part of the enchantment is the experience of the cinema itself, but most theaters have shut down until further notice. You’ll be happy to learn that the excitement and feeling of an escapade can be brought to your Bethany Beach, DE home with expert home theater design.

Importance of Design Plans

How your home theater is set up has a significant impact on how your viewing experiences will be. That’s why taking every component of the space into consideration is key. From seating to acoustics, and the general theming of your theater, so many factors can create the ultimate place for movie nights and TV binge-watching.

Your seating, for example, is more than just a few sofas or reclining chairs in your room. You can pick from endless fabric and pattern selections for your seating, and make it match your overall chosen theater theme.

We can help you craft a unique theme that encompasses your favorite film franchise or a TV series you love. Audio-video equipment and other theater solutions won’t hinder your thematic décor – you can enjoy your viewing space as your theme’s design surrounds you.

Seating not only contributes to your theater’s style but can affect the room’s acoustics as well. We ensure that your seats’ headrests aren’t too tall or that the fabric absorbs sound and alters your media’s audio performance. Installed acoustic panels and other smart solutions guarantee that your movie’s sound reaches every part of the room and optimizes the dialogue, sound effects, and soundtrack and score the way they’re supposed to be heard.

Professional soundproofing can keep your media’s audio from leaking into other areas so that your high-end speakers evenly distribute the sound to every viewer in the theater. This solution will also keep noise and sound from next-door rooms from disrupting your viewing experiences.

And to finish up a perfect home theater design, we’ll add in essential smart home automation features to make the theatrical atmosphere all the more inviting. Motorized shades, smart lighting, and climate control all contribute creating the perfect home theater environment.

Keeping Everyone in the Loop

With a huge undertaking like a home theater installation, the task can become a whole lot easier when everything remains organized and on track. That’s why our team makes sure that everyone involved in the project stays in constant communication and knows what’s going on at all times.

We’ll coordinate design plans and any updates and changes you might have with the project’s architects, builders, interior designers, and anyone else that’s working to create your theater.

And most importantly, we guarantee you’ll never feel left out of the loop. You’ll know what’s happening with your installation the entire time. We’ll make sure to address any questions, concerns, or issues you might have and will work hard to make any and all adjustments you request. We prepare for any hiccups or obstacles so that the process runs smoothly and delivers an end result you’re sure to love.
