Custom Drapery for Home Theaters
Home-theater drapery is acoustic engineering disguised as decoration. The studio specifies heavy velvet or wool acoustic panels, full-fullness pleated, ceiling-mounted, often with motorized stage-curtain reveal of the screen — a program designed to control reflection, absorb mid-range, and read as cinema.
Why Choose Home Theater Drapery
Why Choose This Style
Velvet and heavyweight wool absorb mid-range reflection more effectively than any other residential fabric.
Full fullness (3x) and full-height mounting maximize the panel's acoustic surface area.
Motorized stage-curtain reveal of the screen is the most-requested theatrical detail; we specify it as silent hardwired DC.

- Often, yes — it preserves the room for non-screening use and reads as theatrical when the screen reveals.
- What fabric is correct for a home theater?
- Heavyweight velvet in a deep saturated tone, or a wool blend in charcoal or aubergine. Light, lustrous fabrics defeat the acoustic intent.
