Benjamin Moore has some really cool metallic paints that might do the trick. Trouble might be finding one light enough.

I install home automation equipment and lighting controls. I don't have a TV in the house : ) I do though, have a projector with a retractable screen. This has totally changed the way we watch TV. We only watch what we want to - which is mainly programs recorded via Youview or films. When the projector isn't on, the screen is out of sight in the ceiling and the room is setup for more social activities. Personally, I couldn't be without the radio. We have speakers in every room for this and music in general. Upstairs this is done with inceiling speakers so again, it is a discrete system.

Hi Catherine, will this be a dedicated cinema room only as there are many options you can choose from and of course will depend on what sort of budget you have to spend and how far you want to go with your cinema room. There are many different things you can incorporate into your room such as projection, mood LED lighting, audio systems, smart home automation (allowing you to control all your lighting and audio visual equipment from an iPad or iPhone for example) so just depends on how far you want to go with your project. A couple of examples of cinema rooms are below for you. You could even look at having home theatre seating to give you a real feel of being at the movies too! Hope this helps you a little but if you need any more help please feel free to get in touch.

In this Post-COVID Era, making the most of your space is a high priority. Garages are often the perfect place for a Home Cinema - with solid walls and little ambient light - it's the ideal cinema environment. Home Cinema - Garage Conversion Before After Our latest project was to take half of a double garage and create a comfortable, but narrow, 5 seater Cinema Room that whilst soundproofed, achieved the highest quality surround sound, given the room size and acoustic properties of the room. The budget was set at £15,000. We determined, that given the viewing distance and the narrowness of the room, we would recommend an 82 inch TV, rather than a Projector. This actually resulted in significant cost savings for the Client. Based on the requirement for surface mount speakers - so that it didn't impair the excellent soundproofing - we used Morel's flagship SP-3 satellite speakers for the most important front left, right and centre speaker positions, with mid-range SP-2's for the two rears, as well as the two ceiling speakers, to create a fully immersive Dolby Atmos experience, which was fully compatible with and extracted the most from the latest, multi-channel sound tracks available on movies. We hid the two compact Morel SUB-8X subwoofers in the rear corners - a pair of subwoofers is strongly recommended in the industry - to give a more even and balanced distribution of the low end bass. At the very start of the Project, the room dimensions and wall properties were fed into an acoustic analysis package to address the natural reverberation and resonances within the room. These issues were suitably addressed at the installation phase with diffusion/absorption panels on the wall and ceiling and bass traps in the corners. Finally we installed an AV Rack for storage of all the equipment, fitted inside a custom made cupboard with suitable ventilation and a thermostatically controlled, ultra-silent fan. Using an Infra-red repeater, the equipment could still be controlled, either with the relevant standard remotes, or our own custom iPad/iPhone "iRemoteControl" App. Finally the TV was re-calibrated for the best pictures settings and the sound optimised using the Audyssey Laboratories Surround Sound Calibration system.
