New Design Black and White Foyer

New Design Black and White Foyer
Foyer 3 bedroom apartment is directly connected with private elevator, so I tried to design the foyer where when the elevator doors open, we will immediately get the atmosphere of both interesting and impressive interior light.

I purposely did not put this seat in the foyer, for a narrow area and a large entrance aperture, so that if there is a seat and will reduce the circulation path.


New Design Black and White Foyer
Instead I make wall panels on the wall in front of the elevator doors, with patterned accent stickers, sandblast and given additional shelves as a place to put accessories. Motifs on my birthday sticker sandblastpun to art work on walls.

What I like is the effect of halogen spotlight on the sticker on the wall sandblast mirrors create two-dimensional stickers, it looks more alive, so everytime we see the elevator doors open, our eyes will be instantly attracted to sandblast these stickers.

Cool Home Theater Decor Ideas

Cool Home Theater Decor Ideas
Having a great home theater experience requires more than just a big screen and a projector. Here are some cool ideas for home theater decor to help you create a picture perfect room.

Comfortable couch or cinema seating. Consider your audience to help decide on seating. The most popular choices are recliner theater seats, leather sofas, or sectionals. Arrange seating in a rectangular shape to maximize the picture and sound.

Guide your guests right to their seats with classic velvet ropes and metal posts.

Nothing says movie theater like the smell of warm popcorn. A nostalgic red striped popcorn machine with a trolley can be tastefully displayed at the entryway of your room.

Tiffany inspired sconce lighting on either side of the screen adds an elegant look.

Cardboard cutout life size stand-ups of your favorite action hero, celebrity or cartoon character to add a fun touch and pay homage to your favorite film icon.

Create a great view with wallpaper murals. A panoramic mountain vista or sophisticated city skyline adorning the walls adjacent to the screen creates a great background and gives an expansive feeling when the lights come up.

Asian Interior Design

Asian Interior Design
There are many things to know when you are talking about Asian interior design, and this is especially true when you are looking at this in the context of the environment in Singapore. Because we are basically a Petri dish of mixed cultures and influences, there is no such thing as a one dimensional interior design, and because of this, you need to understand how this is going to be able to affect the aspect of this design as a whole, and we can look at how trends have affected Asian design in the first place and how this is going to evolve in the future.

The first thing that you are going to look at of course is the colonial design that is of course, a big feature within any home that started off when Singapore started the whole modernisation phase quite a long time ago. Now because of this, colonial design does not necessarily mean just classical roofs and sorts of things like classical furniture, but they can of course mean things like how the room is arranged, the patio area, the use of wood and of course, the grand scale of some of the older houses in Singapore.

One thing that you need to know about of course is how you are going to fit this in when thinking about Asian design as a whole. When the first of the boats started to come in, the whole kampong concept of Singapore had to give way to a much more modern aspect of Chinese, Indian, and of course regional design elements, that was punctuated when the government of Singapore then decided to segregate and divide Singapore into a sum of many parts. But of course, today, we are not discussing on the finer aspects of how Asian design came about, but more so, where it is not today, and we can safely say that Asian design has taken a more contemporary take in this day and age, and some might say that it has been drowned out by a modern design imperialism that seemed to have dominated the skyline of the design industry.

Dream Home Theater Takes Cues from Skywalker Ranch

the_stag_front.jpg

If you're looking for a model of the quintessential home theater, Star Wars creator George Lucas's theater he calls "The Stag," located at his Skywalker Ranch in California, would probably be a good place to start. That's what home theater installer Johann Peters did, spending $100,000 to build a 16-seat demo theater with a dozen speakers, 12,740 watts of amplification, a high-end JVC 1080p projector and even a mixing console.
After visiting Lucas's Skywalker Ranch theater seven years ago, Peters decided to pick and choose some of its best ideas for his own theater, and while he toned down the color scheme a bit and didn't quite need the 300 seats of The Stag, his final product still manages to kick some serious ass. Check out the gallery below and take the jump for a full spec list of this dream theater.

Start Home Theater Room Design


For example, our theater system set-up must fit with the size and shape within our home, with the sound likely to be off if this is not done correctly - causing it to be less than the high quality sound system we originally purchased. Without much trouble, the theater design can be created within our home if done correctly. Seeking to reproduce an actual theater or cinema quality environment, the fact is that a large-screen high definition television or projection system requires certain things to work correctly.

Basically, the technical description of a home theater system is a television, VCR, DVD, and a set of speakers. When we are selecting a home theater combination, our first considerations should be about the design elements in the home. If we will be purchasing a theater set-up that is going to fill a larger room, we may need to consider additional elements, such as the amount of speakers that are needed. Quite possibly, a sales person or a designer in the store we purchased our set-up from, will help us with the layout.

This can be the sales person, a professional designer, or obtaining professional services from someone else. We may find that the design aspect of the theater is not as complicated as we originally thought. In fact, many adept home owners are able to do this on their own when they take a home theater kit out of the box in their living room.

Most research have found that when setting up the home theater system within the home, if the homes have a complete home cinema set-up the layout of the speakers is common to use the speakers integrated within the TV instead of playing the sound through the surround sound system. Spend a few extra minutes to make sure that you have the right home theater for your home and it is hooked up correctly.

The design of it should be easy to install, but by far the most important thing is that the quality of the sound system should be as close to perfect as possible. When we take the time to do this, we will have created the perfect theater for our home. If we find we cannot do this, we can work with a movie theater specialist to help us to come up with specific needs, based on our home's shape and needs. The other option is to follow the directions that are provided to us with our movie theater system.

Two Projector Theater

What do you spec as a projector in this beautiful Greenwich, CT. home when you have 18 video sources as diverse as X-box and Blu-ray? Well, Opus AVC of North Haven, Connecticut discovered that just one is not enough.

Two in One

It's the perfect situation – a dedicated home theater and a completely separate room for critical music listening. One homeowner in Massachusetts was able to realize his dream of the 'perfect' audio system, and still provide the rest of the family with their own home theater.

The High Impact Relyea Cinema 1

When we broke ground on our new home in upstate New York my wife Kristie and I each had our goals for this space. I desired a place where I could listen to music, and where the family could come together for a great movie experience. Kristie's priority was for the space to feel like an extension of our home.

Future Deco

Sometimes it takes the combined talents of two professional organizations to come up with a striking, one-of-a-kind home theater. Such was the case with this Florida home. Cinema Design Group is a leading designer, manufacturer, and installer of home theater seating, acoustic panels, and custom home theater environments. Along with Boca Theater and Automation, a premier provider of turn-key, custom-built integration systems and home theaters, these two specialists created a home theater that bears the resemblance of the familiar geometric Art Deco designs of the early 20's, yet, it reveals a distinctive 21st century edge.

The Ultimate Plasma with a Price to Match

Bang & Olufsen (B&O), known for their killer designs, makes their 103" plasma TV available in the United States. The Beovision 4-103 is one of the largest TVs on the market. What makes the Beovision 4 stand out from all the others is that special B&O touch. The motorized floor stand lifts the TV from it's position near the ground, when you are ready to view movies or TV. By resting the TV inches from the floor, it becomes less prominent in the room when not in use, according to the B&O press materials. However, I'm not sure how a 103-inch TV is not prominent, no matter where in the room it is located.

The New American Home

Sponsored by the National Council of the Housing Industry, the 2009 New American Home demonstrates cutting-edge technology, energy efficiency, and jaw-dropping contemporary design. This annual event chooses a premier show home and uses it as a technology laboratory, providing real-world demonstrations of the latest concepts in architecture, construction techniques, new products, and lifestyle trends.

The Tree Trunk Theater

Retrofits always have their unique challenges and Canadian systems integrator Graytek was faced with a highly unusual challenge when designing this basement theater. The room had three tree trunk posts, which were part of the structural integrity of the home so they had to stay intact. Since they were in the middle of the room, it was necessary to work around them while still maximizing the screen size and seating area.

Anthem Delivers First Projector

Well known as a leading manufacturer of high-end electronics, Anthem has jumped into the business of high definition projectors with two high-performance three-panel 1920 x 1080p LCOS projectors, the LTX300 and LTX500. According to Jack Shafton, Anthem's Vice President of Sales and Marketing, "The video playback capabilities of the LTX projectors mesh perfectly with the industry-leading A/V processing available on our Anthem Statement D2v and AVM 50v. Our dealers can now offer a high-performance, turnkey video and A/V control solution to their customers

Waterfront Beauty

When it was time for this homeowner to have their third home fitted with electronics they returned to Audio Video Design (AVD) of Newton, MA. After going through the design process two other times, they had a very clear vision of what they desired. Quality installation was, of course, the top priority. However, they wanted the most cost effective, state-of-the-art solutions but not necessarily the most cutting edge products.

Escaping 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

I love the wow factor of themed home theaters and it was the love of old science fiction films and the Steampunk genre that prompted me to design my theater like the Nautilus from Disney’s classic 1954 film, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Rather than try to duplicate any one particular room of the submarine, details and influences from the entire boat were combined to create this one-of-a-kind theater.

Two Projector Theater

What do you spec as a projector in this beautiful Greenwich, CT. home when you have 18 video sources as diverse as X-box and Blu-ray? Well, Opus AVC of North Haven, Connecticut discovered that just one is not enough.

Ultimate Install Contest

This is one of those times when the pictures just don't do justice to the project. The winner of the 2009 Windows Media Center Ultimate Install is Vision Audio from Lubbock, Texas. The Media Center Integrator Alliance (MCIA), together with Microsoft, announced the winner of the 2009 Windows Media Center Ultimate Install Contest during CEDIA in Atlanta, Georgia on September 13. This impressive system uses Windows Media Center at the core of the home's entertainment experience in an extensive whole-home installation.

My Movie Magic on Beale Street

I’ve been an A/V nerd all my life. As a kid, I would take apart my parents’ stereo equipment and make a huge mess. It’s always been my dream to have the biggest and baddest A/V system on the block. Well, it took me 20 years, but I think my newest home theater takes the cake, at least on my block.

Triple Duty Window Treatments

Stewart Filmscreen is branching out, providing unique window treatments designed to improve the overall home cinema experience. While the Acoustishade is a beautiful addition to any decor, available in a variety of colors and any custom size, it also controls ambient light as well as exterior noise from interfering with the viewing experience. The Acoustishade is the most stylish and cost effective soundproofing solution available.

Cineplex Comes Home

Shannon McGinnis is one of the few people who has found that his hobby/avocation is also his vocation. In 1997, he started his Custom Electronics Design and Installation company as a one-person operation; it has grown to include three additional installers at present. Home Technology Systems, Inc., currently provides Wichita, Kansas, and the surrounding areas with a single-source solution for all custom home and small business electronics needs and desires, including home theater, systems integration, lighting control, structured cabling, multiroom audio, and security.

My Engineering Masterpiece

Nine years ago, my wife and I had our home custom-built on an isolated 11-acre lot. The theater room continues to evolve into the vision I had back then. I wouldn’t say that it’s entirely completed, but it’s definitely fully functional and a pleasure to use and entertain in.

Sitting Room Pretty

Constructing a theater from scratch in a custom-built home can be a challenge, but remodeling a room in an established home can sometimes be even more demanding.

That was the case with this 7,800-square-foot home in Siesta Key, Florida. For the second remodel in its 26-year existence, the homeowner called in custom builder, Rick Oswald, owner of OZ Build and Design, based in Sarasota, FL, to fashion a theater on the home’s second floor. Ryk Schoonheim, owner of Sarasota-based Sights, Sounds, and Such then outfitted the room with the latest gear.
