Before: Although Bill Curran has several of the right elements for the perfect theater, he missed the mark with the awkward layout and faux raspberry wall treatment.
After: New monochromatic blue walls create a soothing effect, drawing the eye to the new custom-built entertainment center. Red furniture is added for a punch of color.
Huge movie buff Bill Curran tried to create a comfortable home theater, but got bad reviews on his design attempt. The black ceiling is accompanied by raspberry faux walls and blue carpet.
