Richmond Residential Cinema
The problem: Home cinemas have very specific acoustics needs. Dialogue must be crisp and intelligible, sound effects should be powerful yet controlled, and music needs to fill the space without overpowering it. In this case, the client required not only top-quality sound performance but also an acoustic solution that would seamlessly complement a carefully designed 1930s-inspired home theatre. The challenge was to strike the perfect balance between technical performance and aesthetic appeal.
Our solution
Cinema interior design by Carl Beckwith – Audio Visual Consultant
Resonics specified and installed Abstracta AB Scala wall panels, an elegant acoustic product chosen for both its performance and design versatility.
The panels were strategically placed to reduce unwanted sound reflections, control reverberation, and sharpen overall audio clarity. Their sculptural form and refined finish ensured they blended effortlessly with the room’s period-inspired décor, enhancing rather than detracting from the space’s visual impact.

The Outcome
The result was a home cinema that delivers an immersive, high-quality audio experience without compromising on style.
Dialogue is crystal clear, effects are punchy and controlled, and music resonates warmly throughout the room. The Scala panels complement the theatre’s 1930s aesthetic, proving that acoustic performance and interior elegance can go hand in hand.
