Not too long ago I wrote about the 15 coolest geek-​​themed home the­aters. I espe­cially liked the Bat­cave because of its sim­ple design that doesn’t com­pro­mise a cer­tain style. Today I dis­cov­ered quite a dis­tinc­tive home the­ater. It has no spe­cial theme – at least I can’t rec­og­nize one – to speak of but it looks really pleas­ant to me. What sets this one apart is the func­tion­al­ity – it sports a rotat­ing floor! At the press of a but­ton the front row of seats rotates 180 degrees to face the sec­ond row, ulti­mately trans­form­ing the home the­ater into some­thing more closely resem­bling a living/​party/​entertainment room.

The front row of seats is installed on a round steel frame 16 feet in diam­e­ter. This cir­cle of floor­ing rotates to avoid hav­ing one row behind another – which is a seri­ous party killer – cre­at­ing a more inti­mate atmos­phere. But that’s not enough. There’s a 35-​​foot walk­way to the home the­ater fea­tur­ing a car­pet with a starfield. And there’s the fanned entry­way that only adds to the style. The doors and the whole the­ater is con­trolled by one remote, ulti­mately plac­ing vis­i­tors under the whim of the wielder of the RTI T2-​​C remote.

A full report on this the­ater can be found at Elec­tronic House with full specs and a com­plete gallery. They even have a video I haven’t watched. One thing is sure though: I’d like to own some­thing like that. That’s a great idea and it’s cer­tainly enter­tain­ing and use­ful at the same time.
