Once upon a time, movie projectors were restricted to darkened home theatre rooms, but not anymore. Nowadays, there are projectors that produce bright enough images for an open living space without the image becoming destroyed by ambient light. Completely swapping out a bulky black TV for an elegant projector screen attains a more restful and elegant room aesthetic. Dropping a projector screen in front of your TV for a movie or the big game can double your viewing area. It’s really a no-brainer. This collection of living room theatre ideas show exactly how it’s done, in modern decor schemes that stylishly beat the movie theatre hands down.

Almost completely covered in black, a few minor elements shine in chrome and wood in this kitchen interior. We love how the textures do the talking, especially through the matte table under black wood-panelled walls. But having an open approach like this means that every one of your accessories on display—including knives, wine glasses, mugs, cutting boards, teapots, cookie jars, etc.—need to be on point.

2. Add Wooden Elements
