Your Own Dream Media Room
Listen to a relaxing jazz playlist on the couch after a long workday, nestle with your book on Saturday morning or pull up the sports game on Sunday. Let us create a media room environment that provides the perfect escape for everyone in your family.
Take advantage of cutting-edge AV technology and intuitive control to craft a media room that transforms in an instant to meet your needs. Add high-end speakers and dynamic displays that disappear from view when not in use to ensure your media room is as beautiful as it is fun.
What Makes a Media Room?
Knowing the main components of a successful media room will help you determine what you need to create a beautiful, fun and versatile space.
Audio
Enjoy your classic records through studio-quality speakers or be immersed in the cheers of Wrigley Field with a surround sound system. Relish in the best audio quality no matter how you use your media room. You can integrate multi-room audio, so the sound follows you as you head to the kitchen for a snack. Outfit the space with standing loudspeakers, bookshelf speakers or discreet architectural models to match your décor preferences.
TVs
State-of-the-art TVs deliver outstanding video quality day or night with ultrabright displays ideal for viewing even when there’s ambient lighting in the room. Revamp your entertainment with 4K TVs providing unprecedented color depth and detail for all your go-to entertainment. Use your TVs to play video games, watch sports games, binge a TV show or stream the latest movie release. Seamlessly transition from one to the next through universal controls from a remote, touchpad or voice assistant.
Motorized Mounts and Frames
Elevate your interior décor with motorized mounts and frames that keep displays hidden from view when not in use. Lift TVs from custom media furniture, drop them down from a niche in the ceiling or hide them behind virtual art frames. Frames can feature artwork, family photos or cityscapes. Simply press a button when you’re ready to watch and your display magically appears and powers on. Our experts will take care of all your frames and mount installations to ensure the ultimate safety for your family.
Hidden Projectors
View your favorite movies on the big screen by incorporating projectors into your media room. Explore hidden projector options that let you incorporate a real cinema feel without cluttering up the space. Not only can projectors be hidden in niches in the ceiling before use, but you can take advantage of short-throw projectors that sit closer to the screen. Placed discreetly in custom media furniture, these are ideal for multi-purpose media room environments.
Dropdown Screens
Are you reluctant to do a projector-and-screen combination because you don’t want a big white display sitting in the middle of your media room? It’s easy to keep eyes on your décor with dropdown screens that stay out of view when you don’t need them. Retract them when you’re done watching and see them disappear into a niche in the ceiling or within media furniture. Screens include special ambient light rejecting fabric to avoid washout or glare when watching during the day.
Lights and Shades
Adjust lights and shades seamlessly to create the ideal environment for whatever activity you have in mind. Enjoy preset settings that make it easy to prepare the room for anything. A “Movie Night” scene dims the lights and closes the shades for optimal viewing. A “Reading” scene opens the shades and dims the lights so you can take advantage of natural lighting for a more soothing ambiance. Light and shade control are vital to your overall comfort, too, by reducing glare and heat gain throughout the day.
Control
A media room could be used in dozens of ways in a single day. No other room in the home depends more on a comprehensive and intuitive control solution. Do you want to host friends? Watch the news while eating dinner? Or sit down for a day-long movie marathon? Immediately prepare for any activity with centralized control of lights, audio, video, shading, climate and more. Take control from a dedicated touchpad, handheld remote, mobile app, voice commands or on-wall keypads.
Furniture
Style and function come together with custom furniture designed to house all your AV equipment. Media furniture is available in a wide range of models, configurations and finishes to fit perfectly with the design you have in mind for the space. Say goodbye to the eyesore of cluttered wires and AV components. Instead, all you see is the beautiful walnut, oak, black or white enclosures that become a central point of your media room’s décor.

Custom Designed For Your Space
To get the most out of your media room, it needs to be tailored to your needs. Each of our media room projects begins with a one-on-one consultation to find out how you want to use the space.

We’ll take this, as well as any space and style limitations, into consideration when choosing the perfect audio, video, lighting, shading and furniture options.
