"A French acoustic plaster dome tops a Northern California home theater created by designers Keith Yates and Dan Dowling, with A/V installation by Geoffrey Franklin.

"The screening room, inspired by the fabled William Haines–designed oval sitting room in movie director George Cukor’s residence, features suede-paneled walls crowned with copper molding, curtains of a Holland and Sherry fabric, and maple-and-oak parquet flooring; Madeline Stuart designed the leather armchairs as well as the velvet-covered club chairs and sofa, which are joined by a 1970 French bronze table from Habité and a vintage Baguès floor lamp."

"Fashion designer Ralph Lauren and his wife, Ricky, bought a Jamaican villa on Round Hill, near Montego Bay, some 20 years ago. 'It’s a place where you really love where you are,' he says. For the screening room and adjacent sitting area, they tore down an existing structure and used 'lots of mahogany' to continue the plantation aesthetic in the newly built space." (November 2007)

"Susan Gulick combined the coziness of a family room with the sophisticated technology of a home theater--and did it all with sustainable materials.
A sink-in sectional that seats practically an entire family is constructed of woods from responsibly managed forests. Cushions are soy-based, springs are made of 80 percent recycled material, and upholstery is a bamboo and organic cotton fabric. The fabric was even manufactured using wind power.
Susan chose sound-absorbent and cushy cork for the floor. Cork is a renewable resource and is harvested without damaging the tree. For added comfort, Susan layered the floor with a wool rug colored with vegetable dyes.
The room's acoustics and elegance are enhanced by decorative hardwood paneling that is formaldehyde free and bonded using soy-based adhesives. Two other walls are softened with a Phillip Jeffries wall covering made of hemp, a rapidly renewable and biodegradable material.
The 46-inch Samsung TV may be large, but its LED (light-emitting diode) technology uses 40 percent less energy than a standard LCD or plasma television, plus it contains no mercury."

For added privacy and to darken the room for TV viewing, Susan hung handwoven silk draperies--colored with natural dyes--between the sitting area and a back entry."

"Designer William Stubbs has transfigured an emblem of Stalin-era severity just outside Kiev into an inviting, historically resonant dacha for his client, an international businessman. 'It was built with Ukrainian hands,' says the resident, who was born in the region. Theo Kalomirakis built the home theater. Its dome was 'the best and worst element of the space,' architecturally striking but acoustically wanting. To improve sound quality, fiberglass padding was added to the dome, which was then covered with latticed fabric panels. Scalamandré gold bullion drapery fringe." (December 1998).

"The presidents and first ladies who have lived in the White House since its completion in 1800 have left their mark on its rooms and grounds. Franklin Roosevelt had the Family Theater carved out of a cloakroom, known as the Hat Box, in July 1942. Ronald and Nancy Reagan added the theater’s stadium-style seating. For a later makeover, First Lady Laura Bush was inspired by early 20th-century movie palaces." (March 2008)
