Media Room Design & Installation in London

A beautiful living space with exceptional entertainment: media-room design, installation, calibrated sound, lighting and simple control.

Media room design and installation

A beautiful room for films, music and everyday living.

Enjoy immersive entertainment in a space that still feels like home. We bring picture, sound, lighting and intuitive control together with the seating, daylight and interior design.

Media room or dedicated cinema?

A media room brings film, television and music into a comfortable everyday living space. A dedicated cinema creates a more focused setting for immersive viewing, with carefully controlled light, acoustics and seating.

We help you choose the experience that suits your home, then design the television or projection, sound and controls around the room.

Every detail shaped around your room

Television or projector

Brightness, image size, throw distance, screen position, ambient light and daily ease of use shape the picture route.

Screen size and seating

Viewing distance, sight lines, furniture and the main seat are agreed before fixed joinery or loudspeaker positions.

Speakers and Dolby Atmos

Channel count follows the room and seating. Ear-level, height and subwoofer positions need space, cable routes and a coordinated acoustic design.

Daylight and blackout

Glazing, curtains, blinds and reflected light determine the picture experience at different times of day.

Acoustics and neighbouring rooms

Room proportions, hard finishes, doors and adjoining spaces affect dialogue, bass and sound transmission.

Joinery and service access

Screens, displays, speakers and equipment need ventilation, cable access and a route for replacement without damaging finished work.

Thoughtful installation. Simple everyday use.

We coordinate power, signal and speaker cabling with the building work, organise the equipment cabinet and design the network around your streaming and control needs. Lighting scenes bring the room into the right mood for watching, relaxing or entertaining.

Choose your programme, set the sound and adjust the lights through a clear control experience. We calibrate the picture and audio in the finished room and demonstrate the functions at handover.

From first ideas to opening night

Room brief

Record dimensions, seating, daylight, intended use, existing equipment, finishes and the level of performance expected.

Audio/video design

Resolve display or projection, viewing geometry, speaker and subwoofer layout, acoustics and the equipment strategy.

Infrastructure and installation

Coordinate cable routes, power, rack space, cooling, network, lighting, joinery and service access before work is closed in.

Calibration and handover

Test picture, audio channels, bass, sources, controls, lighting scenes and shutdown, then explain operation and support.

Relevant project work

Highgate House media room combines 4K laser projection, an acoustically transparent screen, Dolby Atmos with Sonance speakers, Savant control and Lutron lighting. The London town-house cinema brings together Epson projection, a concealed acoustically transparent screen, Artcoustic loudspeakers, Savant, Lutron, Orluna and Ruckus networking.

Both projects show why picture, sound, lighting, control and infrastructure work best when they are designed as one complete room.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a media room and a dedicated cinema?

A media room combines entertainment with everyday living. A dedicated cinema focuses the space on picture, sound and immersive viewing. We help you choose the approach that suits your home.

When should we start planning?

Bring us in during the design stage so we can coordinate the screen, seating, sound, lighting and concealed equipment with your interior team.

Can you upgrade an existing room?

Yes. We review the room and current installation, then plan the improvements that will have the greatest impact on your viewing and listening.

What happens at handover?

We demonstrate your sources, picture and sound settings, room controls and lighting, and show you how to get the most from the system.

Should we choose a television or projector?

A television works beautifully for bright rooms and everyday viewing. Projection creates a larger cinematic image. We help compare the options around your room and viewing habits.

Can you design Dolby Atmos for our room?

We design the speaker layout around the seating and room, choosing the right approach to surround and height sound for your desired experience.

Can you improve the sound in a living room?

Yes. Speaker selection, placement and calibration make a difference, with discreet acoustic treatment and furnishing coordination available as part of the design.

How do we get started?

Tell us how you want to use the room. A floor plan or a few photographs help us start shaping the ideas with you.
