# Handsome Theater

Cozy wood paneled custom theater.

## About This Project

Our client's home theater is filled with rich wood built-ins, burgundy leather, a tray ceiling, and eye-catching light fixtures. This handsome space needed our additions to be discreet and streamlined to maintain a sophisticated aesthetic. We took that into account with several key decisions on this project.

For one, the Sony projector could have been mounted to the ceiling or on a rear wall, as is the case in many home theaters, but the tray ceiling allowed us to create a more elegant solution, recessing the projector into the soffit. The only part of the projector you see is the light shining through a decorative face plate.

The customer had custom fabric acoustic panels placed around the room, so we installed the subwoofers inside the panels below the screen to conceal them. For the rest of the theater, we placed Paradigm Prestige speakers around the room to create theater surround sound.

The customer was already utilizing Control4 to run the rest of the house, and its a great control system for a home theater because all of the capabilities you would want a theater to have are easily controlled via the Control4 app, remote, or wall panel.

Our customer chose a sleek black wall panel, and we customized and programmed the panel to be able to turn the whole room on and off, control only the lights, and control the cable box. Next to the buttons, there is also a light dimmer to further be able to customize the lighting. Through the app or remote control, you can also control the temperature of the room, the Blu-Ray player, and other media sources.

While this project is now several years old, the tech still maintains a sophisticated look, and by utilizing a proven industry control system, the only updates and upgrades are that of software, unless the homeowner desires new aesthetic options.
