This home theater, however, is not in America, but in a house on the Rublevo-Uspenskoe highway. But it looks like an American cinema in retro style, or, more precisely, as a kind of cinnabar. In such a stylization even more games than if it happened in the homeland of the original aesthetics. For Russia, this game is not even in the “cinema for real”, but in the cinema itself, because the interior in this case is like a little Hollywood, a recognizable image, almost like in pop art. The owner of the illusion, of course, a great connoisseur of high-quality pictures and perfect sound. It’s not for nothing that the Purple Legion Company considers this project to be one of the best - the customer has demanded all the most.
Moreover, the task was complicated by the fact that this very equipment had to be hidden in order not to violate the interior retrostistics. For the speaker system they made deep niches filled with a special dense material for suppressing resonance. Velvet draperies and upholstery combine decorative and acoustic functions: they bring luxury to the interior and absorb sound. The color of the interior is deliberately obscured - light walls and details while watching movies would give unnecessary reflexes, which would spoil the sharpness of the picture on the screen. The projector is nine inches and provides maximum contrast. Screen - stationary, with automatic curtain, which can be closed completely or leave the necessary part of the screen open. Special attention is paid to the chairs ordered at the factory, which produces furniture for VIP-cinemas. Actually, this is a special cinema chair with adjustable backrest and footrest. Of course, all cinema systems are automated and controlled from a common console. The illusion room is suitable not only for film screenings, but also for listening to music in the ideal acoustic conditions created here.
