The Perfect Home Theater Design for the Minimalist in You
There’s a lot of equipment that goes into creating a top-quality home theater. The list begins with a projector, a display, and a speaker system, but those are just the basics. You must also consider source components, an AV receiver, a control system, cabling, seating, acoustics, and much more.
If you practice feng shui or prefer a minimalistic style throughout your Atlanta, GA home, we understand why a home theater system could seem like the perfect way to clutter your house with bulky, intrusive technology and disturb an otherwise sleek interior design. However, there are plenty of solutions that can complement any minimalistic style while delivering the home theater of your dreams. Explore a few clutter-free solutions below!

Gear Be Gone
Our team at Atlanta Audio & Automation specializes in custom home theater designs for any unique style, no matter how simplistic. We work with world-leading brands to offer homeowners intelligently concealed solutions that hide excessive wiring, source components, bulky speakers, and even do away with that pile of remote controllers.
Consider a custom ceiling soffit to hide your projector or select a projection screen that retracts to the ceiling when not in use. Motorized lifts are also a notable option to conceal speakers, displays, and other equipment until you’re ready to use them. What’s more, say goodbye to that big rack of AV equipment that typically lies underneath or beside the projector screen—we’ll create a dedicated AV closet hidden behind moveable wall panels or artwork so that it stays completely out of sight.
Sightless Sound
These days, you can choose from a wide variety of speaker solutions that offer immersive surround sound while complementing any kind of home theater design and setup. Some homeowners like the look of impressive floor-standing speakers in the front and back of their home theaters, while others prefer their speakers be completely hidden away so sound is heard but not seen.
For the minimalist in you, in-surface speakers are going to be the best option. These speaker systems are installed flush with your ceilings and walls, leaving behind small, painted or fabric-covered grilles that blend in perfectly with the colors of your walls. We even offer speaker solutions that install entirely behind your drywall for zero visual footprint. Enjoy the 360-degree immersion of tangible surround sound from Dolby Atmos without a single obtrusive speaker in sight!
Intelligent Design
Not all equipment in your home theater can be completely concealed, but there are several clever ways to make your more difficult-to-hide gear look like part of your interior design without cluttering your space.
If you prefer a smaller TV screen to a projector-screen setup, consider a display that poses as a beautiful mounted mirror when turned off. Choose from hundreds of framing possibilities to match your style, and then watch it instantly turn into a top-quality TV display when you’re ready to watch a movie.
You don’t have to select dedicated theater seats for your private cinema. Instead, go with laidback couches, sectionals, loungers, and other types of recliners depending on how you’d like to maintain the feng shui in your space. We’ll make sure your seating is properly placed to offer an optimal viewing experience from any corner of your home theater.
Our team partners with Fortress to bring a large variety of luxurious home theater seating to private cinemas of all styles throughout Georgia. From modern loungers and chaises to traditional theater recliners and much more, Fortress custom-builds every chair according to your order. Test the unbeatable design and comfort of Fortress home theater seating at our local Atlanta showroom to gain a better idea of what would work best for you and your family!
