Top Trends In Home Entertainment Design

Speakers are a key component of home entertainment systems, with high-end companies like Bang & Olufsen, Sonos and Devialet creating striking, avante-garde speakers that connect up both to televisions and music players. When it comes to speakers, it is fair to say that the one thing high-end designs have in common, is that they look like just about anything but a speaker! A perfect instance is Bang & Olufsen’s gorgeous ‘rollable’ Besound Edge – a spherical speaker that looks like a designer sculpture when set on the floor, and almost like a high-end lighting piece when attached to a wall. Homeowners increase or decrease the volume of sound by placing their hand on the sphere’s edge and gently moving it upwards or downwards.

You can opt to add fun, interactive games to your entertainment system for the whole family to enjoy. There is a variety of them to choose from like dance pads, music kits, or even immersive golf simulators. Golf simulators are great for practicing or preparing for the course if you have not played the game yet, plus it’s a great way to introduce the kids to the sport.

Choose Your Finishing

Homes vary in style and spirit depending on where they are located and trends can vary vastly depending on the city or town you live in. Interior design in Austin and other Texas states is swayed by a passion for traditional carpentry, natural materials and stone, and stately wooden flooring. Head to New York, however, and your vision will instantly be seduced by ultra-modern features such as hanging staircases, pendulum lights, and sexy metals in brass and copper hues. Luxury home entertainment system brands are well aware of the demand for personalization, offering speakers in a variety of materials (including oak, walnut, bronze, high gloss, stark white, elegant black, aluminum, and virtually any finishing you can think of). Whether your home is minimalist, traditional or modern, you can find speakers and televisions that fit in seamlessly with the rest of your interiors.

Artistic Aspirations

Speakers in unique shapes are one thing, but using them to create artistic installations is quite another. Top audiovisual firms are creating individual ‘speaker units’, which can be used to create artistic installations and wall art. Those wishing for the ultimate acoustic experience can invest in three or four speakers, for instance, with the rest of the ‘shapes’ existing solely for decorative purposes, or to complete a ‘wall sculpture’ that you have designed. The shapes come in a variety of colors, so you can go for everything from pastel hues to bold red or elegant black designs.

It’s an exciting time for audiovisual enthusiasts with an eye for design. From wall installations to rolling speakers, there are many features that can be personalized or varied as your tastes change. The fact that you can adapt finishings and colors to the changing seasons means that high-end audio systems are a worthy long-term investment. From traditional to minimalist, nature-filled to modern, there are just about as many styles as there are homes.
