Spa Town Cinema
before-during-after
At The Spa Town Cinema, our client was doing major extensions works, adding a swimming pool, gym and huge kitchen area, to their home. We were asked to transform the site’s old kitchen into a cinema room.
The client wanted three rows of seating so I suggested we took the floor down 600mm at the front of the room- this meant shifting around sixty tonnes of earth and concrete. We also removed a large pillar at the side of the room which meant installation of a huge new steel to carry the room above.
Han Solo Room
before-during-after
Han Solo himself would have cracked a smile at this fully acoustically treated cinema room that we completed in Oxfordshire in 2017. We were briefed with creating a dual-purpose space: gym on one side, cinema on the other. Physically, new underfloor heating was installed to keep the toes warmed and old windows solidly blocked to keep the light out and sound in.
East Bridgford Cinema
before-during-after
Our client wanted a high performance and yet discrete cinema. The room was acoustically very ‘lively’ (lots of echo). We felt it vital this was addressed as any amount of money spent on high-end audio would have been wasted otherwise. All acoustic treatments and speakers are completely hidden from view. This is achieved with stretch fabric walls and ceilings (see before photos). We designed and had fabricated all of the bespoke solid walnut furniture. The Silent Gliss Wave curtains are automated.
South Staffs Cinema
before-during-after
Full stretched fabric and hidden acoustical treatments. Dual format constant height Screen; with masking. The Big Picture was responsible for the complete strip out and rebuild; every aspect of this room was done in house.
Newick House
before-during-after
Precision early design allowed custom speakers to land in exactly the right place for our custom speaker grilles to line up with pre-chosen wall paper for a near invisible look but with a HIGH fidelity speaker performance.
Dr. Ghaffar’s Home Cinema
before-during-after
We were briefed by the client, local GP Dr Atif Ghaffar, with delivering a high performance, fully acoustically treated ‘reference’ cinema (in a neglected double garage) that had to be more than just ‘a room with some cinema kit in it’. The client wanted a dedicated space that was cosy and inviting with equipment hidden from view, interior design was also to be undertaken by The Big Picture.
Beacon House

From the client: “This home cinema installation is fantastic, it has met all our original requirements and exceeded all expectations. Initially I would like to say that aesthetically the room itself has been transformed.”
