This Cinema was commissioned by a real couple of Movie fans who wanted to hark back to the days of Hollywood but have a modern cinema with hints of yester year.
A simple design was chosen that put the focus on the items contained,so the highest quality custom Acoustic panels were made using the DIASEC PROCESS-the first time this has been used in a Cinema Install in Europe.

Using a traditional Movie red suede the panels were built with Diasec Movie pictures within,8 x Movie chairs were also custom built to match in the highest quality Nappa leather with electronic recline and aluminium accents and buttons.
This was a new room created out of an old basement where we bricked up a window and replaced old glass patio doors with custom built light oak sliding doors.
The front and rear stages with blue accent lighting were made in black ash with red accents evoking a sense of Graumanns Chinese Theater in Hollywood.
A beauitiful black ash cabinet with toughened dark glass doors and shelves was also custom made as opposed to using a rather sterile and industrial rack unit.
Decor was using a superb grey paint with black ash skirting.
Equipment included;-
Cinema 360 custom Movie server,Screenresearch 3m 2.35.1 curved Cinemascope screen,Panasonic AE PT6000 3d projector,9.2 channels Yamaha processing and amplification,blu ray,PrismRuby Sat with XBMC and NaviX,Image Audio IA8s with Klipsch subwoofers..*Upstairs is a 65" Samsung 3d t.v. and PrismRuby sat box..
The system was given the Cinema 360 Expert setup.
