3 Ways to Refresh Your Space This Spring

April 14, 2021

If you’ve decided to try designing a home theater of your own, we’ve got you covered. In this post, we’re going to give you 8 top tips to ensure your design is the best it possibly can be.

1. Designing a Home Theater: Choose the Right Room

First things first when it comes to designing a home theater; you need to select the right room. Ideally, your home theater space should only be used for the home theater itself.

This can help when it comes to honing the rest of your design choices. It also helps build that cinema experience; you’ll only use this space for watching the latest blockbusters.

It can prevent clutter and ensures you’ll enjoy the room to its fullest. Make sure to also consider size when you select your space or room. Think about how many people you hope to be able to seat in the room at any one time.

2. Project Projector

For the authentic cinema experience, you’ll want your home theater design to include a high-quality projector.

This is what you’ll use to project all of your films, so it’s arguably the most important item in the theater. Clue yourself up on the different types of projectors you can use.

Consider also where will be best to place the projector in the room. A popular option is to suspend it from the ceiling, which keeps the projector out of the way for viewers.

3. Seating Is Everything

Outside of the projector, the most important part of a home theater is the seating. It must be comfortable; think about your favorite cinema seating, and make yours even better than that.

Because it’s your home, you can go wild with seating choices. What about a home theater couch, so you can lounge and watch to your heart’s content?

Get the home theater seating that’s best for you, from a dedicated home theater furniture provider where possible.

4. Ambient Lighting

Theaters are well-known for their lighting. You want to reflect this in your home theater with appropriately purchased and installed home theater lighting.

Consider implementing some ambient lights, so you can set the mood for a particular film. Or, consider floor lights so you can find your way out whilst the lights are low.

Another good tip is to go with dark paint on the walls. This can help accentuate certain ambient lighting or help keep the room dark when required.

With the lighting, it’s best to keep things simple, but make sure you have plenty of options. Think about how your lights will be controlled also.

The last thing you want to do is get out of your seat to turn the lights down. Invest in lights that are voice-controlled, or controlled through a remote.

Designing your home theater to ensure few disruptions is the best way of making sure you can watch whatever you like in peace.

5. It’s an Audio and Visual Experience

Everyone thinks about watching films as a visual medium, but the sound is also incredibly important.

Make sure you invest in quality surround sound or high-tech speakers. Think about where these speakers are placed in the space, to ensure you’re making the most of them.

Depending on where your room is, you should also think about soundproofing it. If you have several people in your home, this is a good way of maintaining the intimacy of your home theater.

6. Go Crazy With Film Decor

Who doesn’t love a good film poster?

They’re hung on the walls all over theaters for good reason. In your home cinema, you can really get personal or creative with your decor choices.

Maybe hang posters of your favorite films on the walls, or invest in some film memorabilia. The more film items you surround yourself with when building a home theater, the more it will feel like a real cinema.

You could even add a small popcorn stand to the corner of the room, because what’s a great film without popcorn!? Think about going further, by adding popcorn holders beside your seats.

Or, you could even add a drinks machine. The freedom to create your own home theater is what makes home theater furniture and the whole experience so exciting.

7. Where Is the Controller?

Nobody enjoys searching for that one specific remote control when you have five on the table. Try to design your home theater to ensure you only have one controller at all times.

This reduces the stress of searching for additional controllers, making the whole viewing experience more enjoyable.

It’s also much easier to do these days with smart television solutions that can link various streaming services together. Remember, when you design a home theater, you’re also designing how your access to your films or content is laid out behind the screen.

8. Make It All About You

The best thing about a home theater is that it’s in your own home; it’s yours. Because of that, the number one rule with home theater design is to make it your own.

Once you’ve thought about the screen distance and other technical features, go with a color scheme that you like the best. Get the comfortable chairs that you’ve always wished were in the theater down the road.

This personalized touch can make the home theater experience feel unlike any other.
