Home Theater Inspired by “Titanic”
A Tennessee couple docks a Titanic replica in their high-end home theater.
The owners of this home theater must feel like kings of the world. After all, the elaborate dome of this 20-by-14-foot room was modeled after the ship from the movie “Titanic.”

The dome in the theater has 1,230 fiber-optic light strands to give the effect of the night sky. It was the brainchild of interior designer Donny Hackett of Casa Cinema Design in Hendersonville, TN, who, along with Professional Audio Video Engineering (PAVE) of Nashville, designed the theater for a local Parade of Homes showcase.
The room features other titanic luxuries, such as a projector and screen that provide superwide CinemaScope pictures like those shown in commercial theaters. In fact, this room boasts the first CinemaScope installation with a Vidikron projector to be used in Tennessee.
