Cinemas.

A short selection of recent rooms. Each was a different brief — a different house, a different family, a different idea of what a cinema room is for — but the same way of working sits behind all of them.

Steinway Lyngdorf cinema in a renovated room near Bath — wide shot of the finished theatre.

Midford — Steinway Lyngdorf Theatre

A professional-grade dedicated cinema, built into a full interior renovation near Bath, around a Dolby Atmos Steinway Lyngdorf system. The brief asked for a room that would handle both feature-film viewing and the owners' work in film and television production — reference-grade headroom and clarity, without the room ever feeling clinical.

We chose the Steinway turnkey path here for two reasons. The wider renovation meant acoustic plan and architecture could be designed in sympathy from first principles, not bolted on. And Steinway Lyngdorf's model-based RoomPerfect digital correction lets us preserve the architectural intent — the room reads as a beautiful private space first, and a cinema second.

Specification

  • Dolby Atmos surround, full Steinway Lyngdorf system
  • RoomPerfect digital room correction, calibration in-house
  • Acoustic plan integrated with the wider renovation
  • Lighting and finishes coordinated across the room scheme

Award-winning dedicated cinema room in Bath, converted from a garage — front wall with acoustic treatment visible.

Bath · Award-Winning Garage Cinema · 2024

Bath — Award-Winning Garage Cinema

A dedicated reference cinema in Bath, built into an unwanted garage shell. The owners had seen another of our cinemas at a previous client's, and visited our showroom; the brief that followed was uncompromising — modest in footprint, not in performance.

The work was as much architecture as it was AV. We dropped the ceiling to allow for absorption, lighting and concealed cabling; brought the front wall forward to create depth for acoustic treatment and to improve the room's proportions; dedicated more space to bass-trapping than most installers would accept. Garage shell to internationally-recognised cinema, with every trade — shell conversion, HVAC, electrical rewire, AV install — coordinated in-house.

Specification

  • Wisdom Audio Sage Line 2 — front three channels
  • Wisdom Audio P4i — side and surround
  • StormAudio Core 16 AV processor
  • Innuos Zen Mini Mk3 with linear power supply — music streaming
  • Bespoke acoustic treatment behind front baffle and dropped ceiling
  • All trades managed in-house: shell, HVAC, rewire, joinery, AV

Bath cinema converted from a former music rehearsal room — Wisdom Audio + Barco system.

Bath · Cinema in a Former Music Room · 2023

Bath — Cinema in a Former Music Room

A dedicated cinema turned out of a disused music rehearsal room in a private Bath home. The owners had an equal love of films and music, and the design had to serve both — décor and lighting that read warmly for either; audio that delivered cinematic immersion without diluting the stereo front-stage music could earn.

Surround systems often spread budget thin across many channels and end up with reference cinema but weak music. We held the line in the other direction. Wisdom L75 across the front three channels carries both the cinema centre and the stereo soundstage with serious authority; the mighty Wisdom STS Jewel 15-inch transmission-line subwoofer underpins both. The room is internationally award-winning, but more importantly it's a cinema the owners actually use for both films and serious listening.

Specification

  • Wisdom Audio L75 — front three channels (left, centre, right)
  • Wisdom Audio P4i — surrounds
  • Wisdom Audio STS Jewel — 15-inch transmission-line subwoofer
  • Wisdom Audio power amplification
  • StormAudio AV processor
  • Barco projection
  • Dual-use design: cinema-grade surround + serious-listening stereo front stage
  • All trades managed in-house: HVAC, lighting design, joinery, AV

Attic cinema in a private Welsh home — finished room with screen, seating and recessed lighting.

Wales · Attic Cinema · 2025

Wales — Attic Cinema

A dedicated cinema turned out of a previously unused attic storage room, in a private home in Wales. Turn-key from interior design and joinery through to acoustic calibration — every trade coordinated under one roof. The acoustic plan led the architecture, not the other way round; the room is treated to 40 Hz.

A neat example of how much can be done with a difficult shell when the acoustic decisions come first. The pitched ceiling and varied roofline meant standard rectilinear treatment wouldn't work; we designed bespoke trapping that follows the architecture rather than fighting it.

Specification

  • Anthem MRX 740 AV processor
  • Epson LS12000 4K laser projection
  • Acoustic treatment to 40 Hz
  • REW measurement + ARC calibration
  • Air conditioning, lighting design, full control integration
  • Full design + build managed in-house

More cinemas, more often than the website shows.

We don't publish every cinema we build — many clients prefer their projects to stay private. If you'd like to see further work that isn't on the site, ask. We can share imagery and detail under NDA where the owner is comfortable.
