If you have a spare room on hand – especially a windowless bonus room – why not build a home theater? This can be a great space for your family to enjoy together.

It’s important to start using your space at home for activities you can all enjoy. Follow some of these tips to get the perfect elements of a home theater set up.

The Screen

Viewing options are many. Whether you are looking for a top of the line 98″ QLED 8K screen, or prefer a retractable screen and projector combo, there is a screen for you that will make your home theater movie viewing phenomenal.

Opting for an 8K screen will bring you some of the highest at-home tech for movie viewing.

If, however, you prefer the put-away look of a screen that retracts into the ceiling while not in use, go for a projector set up.

The Sound

A surround sound system is essentially required for a home theater. Experience movies the way they were meant to be heard with a high-tech system. Simple bluetooth audio sets are available for easy installs that do not require any extra wiring in your walls.

Let your sound system work to its full potential by installing some acoustic tiles on the ceiling and walls.

The Lighting

You’ll want to have the right kind of lighting in your media room. This includes blocking out natural light. If you have a windowless spare room, that would be the best location to install your home theater.

If not, look into blackout curtains. You can find custom fixtures that will fit floor to ceiling windows. Motorize these so that with a touch of a button or the use of an app you can turn your media room from sunny to movie-ready in just a moment.

The Seats

The benefit of building a home theater is getting to choose the decor options that you would not when visiting a theater out in public. Gone are the days of uncomfortable, folding, sticky seats at the theater. In your home movie room renovation, you get to pick your comfort level.

Choose from a new couch that lets you lean back and snuggle with the ones you love, to luxury reclining theater seats complete with cupholders and foot rests. Go classic, go comfy, go all you.

The Popcorn

At-home popcorn machines are 100% available for purchase. These make movie theater style popcorn in your home. With the open window to watch the popping occur, this novelty item will bring the final taste and scent needed to building a home theater.
