The home cinema, located in the old building in the very center of Kiev, has a serious Soviet past. AT 30s the leaders of the Communist Party in this room were watching newsreels and campaign films shot at 35 mm film. Here was a careful selection of those paintings, which then watched the population. But the years of censorship were in the past, and the state building was sold, the property turned from collective into private. The new owners have left no trace of the boring naked political interior. The current owners wanted brilliant luxury. They demanded that the interior was primarily solemn and magnificent. As a sample, the designers decided to take the Russian palace architecture. After thorough alterations, the building both outside and inside really began to resemble the imperial palace.

The premises of the home theater were created with an eye on the main interiors, mainly of the 18th century. There are obvious palace signs. In particular, the oval dome. True, this is not only a reference to the main palace style - the Baroque, who loved rounded shapes. In this case, found a successful solution that meets both the style of interior design and technical needs. The shape of the dome was also important for acoustics. It is decorated with caissons (decorative square protrusions forming a lattice-like structure). This is also not only an element of the design decision, but also a technical necessity: they quench the resonance.

We decided to make the low ceiling blue to make it look lighter and to create the impression of a heavenly vault. As befits a real palace ceiling, it is decorated with a large number of stucco details, among which are gold-plated medallions with patterned motifs and decorative arches. An important element of the interior design was the flirtatious bronze chandelier with elegant glass pendants. The walls were “revived” with small lamps in the spirit of the 18th century. The interior is dominated by red color, a lot of gold, and finishing materials are dominated by velvet and silk. Thus, the walls are decorated with panels upholstered in silk. These panels are located between the columns of your favorite palace order - Ionic. They support the eaves, through which the ornament of rectangular decorative stucco projections with the funny name "denticles" passes. Velvet is mainly used in the decoration of soft chairs. Between them, hidden control panel of all this magnificence - LCD touch-panel. And the screen for the time being is hidden by a heavy velvet curtain with tassels in the spirit of a brilliant imperial era.
