This breathtaking study in black & white was inspired by another theater the client had seen, which is how a design often begins. But since every room has unique requirements—from the dimensions, to the number of guests it needs to accommodate, to the size of the screen, to the number of speakers—that original inspiration could only serve as a leaping-off point.

The Symphony of Light proves that even something as basic as black and white can fuel a design that’s as striking and exciting as any home theater out there.
