If you are planning to design a home theatre, then there are many factors that need to be considered before you start out. The first and the primary aspect of any home theatre is it’s location in your home.
The answer to this question will entirely decide how you will go about designing a home theatre. This is nothing but whether you will utilize a part of an existing room such as living room/family room as a home theatre or will have a completely different room in your home to be converted into a home
theater.
Both these have their own advantages and disadvantages. No matter which way you choose to plan a home theatre there are two parts of the entire theatre project.
1) The audio and video equipment
2) interior design of the theatre room
Let’s have a quick look at these two
1) The audio and video equipment
Truly speaking you don’t have much control over how these perform in a home theatre. The only control you have over these is to which models to buy. Since you can not design the electronic equipment yourself, you will have to carefully do a market study of various audio and video kits available in the market that goes well with your budget as well as the size of the room you will be fitting them in.
2) interior design of the theatre room
Yes, you have 100% control over this aspect of the theatre room. The interior design part includes many things such as
* Acoustic paneling (if required)
* Color schemes
* Theatre room lighting (for mood creation)
* Home theatre seats for comfortable body positions
* Overall theme of the design
* Home theatre furniture for holding electronic equipment
* Air conditioning (if required)
If you have a look at the above list it is quite sure that you have total control over every aspect of the interior design part of a theatre room. You can easily cut down any part of the list if it doesn’t fit in your budget.
So plan accordingly by writing down every aspect of the home theatre before you start out actually building the room. Careful planning will save your lots of time and money.
