Designer Elena Shabanova "raised" a tropical forest in the pool. The projector was hidden in the branches of the tree, the screen was also hidden - this is an inconspicuous roll on the mirror wall opposite Mirror wall reflects the water, exotic plants and lawn near Moscow behind the sliding glass. It seems that this is just a pool. For the time being. Until the movie starts. Then the screen turns, the light turns off, and guests discover that they are in one of the most unusual home theater systems. You can swim and watch movies, and you can get under a tree or at a table with a cocktail ... "The main idea - to create a corner of tropical nature - was coined by the customer and embodied at different levels, from architecture to decor," says the designer. The rainforest is not a park, regularity is not peculiar to it; therefore, Elena has given an irregular shape to the walls, and to the basin itself. And the paths that are lined with ceramic tiles in the form of pebbles - too. Looking carefully, you see that the trees are not real. But how similar! Let this decoration - it was intended. The designer wanted to bring an element of the game, some theatricality into the interior of the pool. The trees are made of concrete (on a frame of metal mesh) and painted with acrylic paints. Light, in fact, is also theatrical: too mysterious for an ordinary cinema. The designer worked closely with the installer. The cables connected to the projector are laid inside the tree trunk, all-weather speakers are mounted on the ceiling, and the control system (rather cumbersome) is generally moved outside the pool. And it would not be useful for her to be there: too wet. Although on the other hand, high humidity is a good addition in order for the game in the tropics to become even more reliable.
