Case Study: Media Wall with Fireplace

Media Wall New Forest Electric Fire Wiz Smart Lighting Bespoke Home Renovation

Jayne and Mike’s Media Wall Project

Jayne and Mike first discovered our showroom by chance while visiting a neighbouring business. This was in mid-September 2025, and construction of their Media Wall began shortly after, on September 30th. Although we can’t always promise such a quick turnaround, we were fortunate to have some flexibility on this occasion. With a family wedding approaching and visitors arriving from overseas, they were eager to have the project completed as soon as possible.

Their living room was already beautiful, but they were ready for a change. They wanted a neutral colour scheme and ample shelving to provide a versatile foundation—allowing them to refresh the space easily by showcasing different homeware and personal items.

Jayne and Mike’s finished Media Wall features a 65” LG OLED TV, a Bose sound bar, and a Deluxe New Forest 1600 Fire with anti-reflective glass, all enhanced by WIZ smart lighting. They are delighted with the result, and we are currently preparing a quote for another renovation in their home.

We’re grateful to Jayne and Mike for taking the time to share their experience with Home Cinema Interiors.

1. How did you hear about Home Cinema Interiors?

We initially visited the Basingstoke Business Centre in mind to look at the flooring store in the unit opposite. We saw the sign for Home Cinema Interiors and couldn’t resist taking a look inside the showroom. As soon as we entered we got the “WoW” feeling looking at the many display media walls. It was the first time we had actually seen physical examples rather than just pictures. We were looking to mount our TV on the wall but at the time hadn’t explored all the options available to us. We were excited after visiting your showroom to start researching options and to bring this project forward.

We were greeted by your friendly staff (Kelly), and encouraged to look around and ask questions and were given some brochures. We felt instantly comfortable and no hard sell. We were impressed with the choice of media walls, fires, various materials available, so we booked a visit for a design member (Josh) to call a few days later to discuss options.

2. How did you find the lead time and process between your first contact and finished renovation?

When we got home we visited your website, Facebook and Instagram pages and browsed through the brochures. We were impressed with customer reviews. After researching online we found a style of media wall that we fall in love with. Josh listened to our requirements and was able to give advice and propose practical solutions to refine what we were looking for. Josh was brilliant. After two visits to the showroom a CAD design was produced so we could visualise our media wall together with a quote, with the installation happening within a couple of weeks. Josh was very flexible and moved dates around to meet our short installation deadline as it was a busy period for us. The timescale from start to finish was very quick and Home Cinema Interiors couldn’t have been more helpful. We were given a detailed daily plan of the work to be done and who would be attending. A professional approach.

3. How helpful was your visit to the showroom and CAD design service in ensuring your vision came to life?

Our visit to the showroom was invaluable, it gave us new ideas such as, being able to dim the lights or change the mood lighting from your iPhone. All staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The CAD drawing was essential for us to visualise what our media wall would look like. We instantly felt confident in the company being able to deliver a high quality professional installation.

4. Would you recommend Home Cinema Interiors to friends and family?

We would 100% recommend Josh and the whole Home Cinema team. Josh and the installation team were always polite, worked with care and respect to our property. Laying down clear covers on the floor during the installation to ensure no marks were made was a nice professional touch. We are delighted with the quality of work and how within four weeks from initial showroom visit to having a completed media wall and surround sound system installed.

We just love the media wall that you have created for us, it puts a smile on our faces every day!!
