BATH-BASED CUSTOM INSTALLER BrownHen Solutions was challenged to transform an unused room in a family home into a cinema to be used for enjoying movies, music concerts, sporting events and TV – the challenge being the space measured a compact 4.3m x 3.7m, and the owners hoped for a cinema that could comfortably seat up to ten people. The end result is a projector-based system where the room's longer 'side' wall is used to mount the screen, partnered with an in-wall/in-ceiling 5.2 setup and rack-mounted sources including an Xbox console and Apple TV.
