FROM THE INITIAL IDEA TO YOUR OWN HOME CINEMA

An exceptional home cinema begins long before the first speaker is installed or the projector is switched on.
 
It starts with good planning.
 
We design your home cinema specifically for your room, your requirements and your budget. In doing so, we consider not only the picture and sound, but the entire cinema experience: interior design, acoustics, lighting, seating arrangements, technology, cabling and operation.

 

PLAN YOUR HOME CINEMA NOW

WHITE CINEMA OR BLACK CINEMA?

Which home cinema is right for you?
 
Not every home cinema needs its own room.
 
Whilst White Cinema integrates high-quality home cinema technology into the living space as elegantly as possible, Black Cinema focuses on an uncompromising cinema experience in a dedicated room.
 
Both concepts share the same goal:
 
A big screen. Impressive sound. A home cinema that suits you perfectly.

WHITE CINEMA

A home cinema that blends into your living space.
 
Living space or home cinema?
 
Why not both?
 
With White Cinema, we integrate high-quality home entertainment into your living space in such a way that the design and cosiness are preserved.
 
The screen, speakers and technical equipment can be integrated discreetly or almost invisibly. It is only when the film begins that the system reveals its true potential.

Typical White Cinema

✓ Integration into the living room
✓ Discreet or concealed speakers
✓ Laser TV, TV or projection
✓ Motorised & concealed screens
✓ Integration into furniture and interior fittings
✓ Dolby Atmos on request
✓ Smart lighting and media control
✓ High picture and sound quality without a traditional cinema room
DESIGN MEETS HOME CINEMA.
 
The aim is not to turn your living room into a cinema.
 
The aim is to create a living space that transforms into an impressive home cinema at the touch of a button.

BLACK CINEMA

Your very own cinema. No compromises.
 
When you have a dedicated room at your disposal, that’s when home cinema design really comes into its own.
 
With Black Cinema, picture, sound, room acoustics and lighting can be consistently optimised for a single purpose:
 
The very best cinema experience at home.
 
Speakers are concealed behind acoustically transparent panelling, the screen becomes part of the room, and targeted acoustic measures ensure that the sound reaches exactly where it’s meant to.
Typical Black Cinema
 
✓ Dedicated home cinema room
✓ Large acoustically transparent screen
✓ Concealed speakers
✓ Dolby Atmos & 3D audio
✓ Customised room acoustics
✓ Multiple rows of seating & raised platforms
✓ Customised lighting design
✓ Cinema and media control
✓ Maximum picture and sound performance
YOUR CINEMA. YOUR SPACE. YOUR RULES.
 
From a modern, minimalist cinema space to a classic cinema theatre, we design a cinema that perfectly matches your vision, both technically and visually.

HOME CINEMA PLANNING IN 5 STEPS
From your initial idea to the finished cinema.

01 – CONSULTATION & NEEDS ANALYSIS
First, we get to know you.
 
What films do you love?
 
How important are music and gaming to you?
 
How many people do you need to accommodate in the cinema room?
 
Should the equipment be visible or completely concealed within the room?
 
And, of course: what is the budget allocated for the project?
 
The initial consultation is therefore not about selling you a projector or speakers as quickly as possible.
 
It’s about understanding exactly what sort of home cinema you really want.
PLAN YOUR HOME CINEMA NOW

Useful tips for your first interview

If you already have any of the following, please feel free to bring them along:
 
– Floor plan or room measurements – Photos of the room – Building or architectural plans – Inspiration and example images – Existing technical installations – Desired budget – Approximate timeline
 
Don’t have any of these yet?
 
No problem. We can start with just an initial idea.
02 – CONCEPT
Your ideas form the basis for a solution.
 
We now combine your requirements with the technical possibilities of the room.
 
Among other things, we define:
 
Screen size and projection
 
How large can and should the screen be? Which projection solution suits the room and the lighting conditions?
 
Speakers & seating positions
 
Where is the optimal listening position? How should surround and ceiling speakers be arranged?
 
Interior design
 
How can technology, acoustics and design be combined?
03 – DETAILED PLANNING & 3D
 
Now the concept becomes a real space.
 
Depending on the project, we draw up detailed planning documents and visualise the future home cinema.
 
This allows decisions to be made before tradespeople begin work and before costly changes become necessary.
 
Among other things, we plan:
 
✓ Screen and image size
✓ Projector position
✓ Speaker positions
✓ Seating positions and sightlines
✓ Podiums and rows of seats
✓ Room acoustics
✓ Wall and ceiling structures
✓ Lighting
✓ Power supply
✓ Cable routing & conduit
✓ Network & media players
✓ Equipment locations
✓ Ventilation for equipment
✓ Control and operation

SEE YOUR CINEMA BEFORE IT EXISTS.

3D HOME CINEMA PLANNING

A drawing shows dimensions. A 3D visualisation shows a vision.
 
How does a three-metre-wide screen actually look in the room? What does the second row of seats look like on a raised platform? What effect do wall coverings, cove lighting and acoustic elements have?
 
With three-dimensional planning, we can view and optimise your future home cinema together even before it is built.
 
Plan. Visualise. Optimise. Then build.

04 – COORDINATION & IMPLEMENTATION

Good planning also works on the building site.
 
A high-quality home cinema consists of more than just AV equipment.
 
Depending on the project, electricians, drywall fitters, joiners, painters, floor layers and other trades may all be working on the same room.
 
To ensure that everything fits together in the end, interfaces must be defined at an early stage.
 
We provide the necessary technical information and, on request, coordinate the implementation with the trades involved.
 
This way, everyone involved knows:
 
What needs to be done? Where does it need to go? And when does it need to be finished?
 

05 – INSTALLATION & CALIBRATION

Now the plans become a cinema.
 
Once the room and infrastructure are ready, we install the home cinema equipment.
 
The projector, screen, speakers, amplifier, media players and control system are fitted, set up and fine-tuned to work together.
 
This is followed by the final optimisation of picture and sound.
 
After all, even the best technology can only reach its full potential if it is set up correctly.
 
Finally, you’ll receive a briefing on how to use your new system.
 
Lights out. Film on.

WHITE CINEMA

Great cinema right at the heart of your home

Perfect for:
 
Living room • Living/dining area • open-plan living spaces • modern new-build homes
 
Key features:
 
Design • Integration • ease of use • concealed technology • suitability for everyday use
 
The result:
 
A high-quality living space that transforms into a home cinema when needed.

STILL NOT SURE: WHITE OR BLACK?

You don’t need to know this before your first consultation.
 
Sometimes a dedicated cinema room is the best solution. In other situations, a well-designed home cinema in the living room may actually be a better fit for your actual viewing habits.
 
We’ll look at the space, your requirements and your budget together, and show you which solution makes the most sense.

A HOME CINEMA IN YOUR NEW BUILD?
Then please get in touch with us as early as possible.

The best time to plan a home cinema is not just when the room is finished.
 
Particularly in the case of new builds and refurbishments, many important details can be taken into account at an early stage:
 
✓ Electrical connections
✓ Speaker cables
✓ Network
✓ HDMI and fibre-optic connections
✓ Conduit pipes
✓ Projector position
✓ Ceiling recesses
✓ Lighting
✓ Air conditioning & ventilation
✓ Acoustic measures
 
The earlier these points are taken into account, the more seamlessly the technology and architecture can be integrated.

 

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How much does home cinema planning cost?
 
The amount of planning involved depends heavily on the project. An integrated living room cinema requires different planning services to a completely new, dedicated cinema room. Following an initial consultation, we can assess the scope of work required.
 
How much does a complete home cinema cost?
 
It would be irresponsible to give a blanket answer. Room size, technology, acoustics, interior fit-out, seating and your desired quality standards all have a major influence on the total cost.
 
Our aim is therefore not to cram as much technology as possible into a room, but to develop the most harmonious overall system possible within your budget.
 
How big does my room need to be?
 
Even relatively small rooms can be transformed into excellent home cinemas. The key factors are the room’s geometry, seating position, desired screen size and the planned audio system.
 
Can my existing equipment be used?
 
We’d be happy to assess any existing components and incorporate them into the design, provided that their integration makes technical and financial sense.
 
Do you also provide planning services if I want to build it myself?
 
Please discuss your plans with us. Depending on the project, planning services and implementation can be tailored to your individual needs.
 
When should I contact you regarding a new build?
 
As early as possible. Ideally, before the planning for electrical work, drywall installation and interior fit-out has been finalised.
