The Star Destroyer of Home Theaters

This intricately themed theatre shows that form and function can work together. The client requested Atlanta Home Theater install a high-performance theatre with a Star Wars theme. The theme was of utmost importance to the client despite concerns that traditional theatre design quality might not be possible. Happily, the integrator says, “The many nooks and crevices of the themed design led to the entire room being a diffuser, which allowed the room to have a more balanced sound than anticipated.”
