The platinum cinema suite - a Cedia 2026 EMEA finalist
Labiib Solutions create a reference-level 9.4.6 private cinema with Artcoustic
The Platinum Cinema Suite by Labiib Solutions has been selected as an EMEA Project Finalist in the 2026 CEDIA Smart Home Awards – recognising a project where technical performance, interior design and meticulous execution come together in one exceptional private cinema.
The brief from the client was deceptively simple: create a high-end cinema.
From there, Labiib Solutions took responsibility for the complete experience – proposing the system, designing the room and even selecting the seating. With no external interior designer involved, the team was able to approach the cinema as one integrated project, ensuring that technology, acoustics and aesthetics were considered together from the outset.
DESIGNED AS ONE COMPLETE EXPERIENCE
Rather than treating the AV system and interior as separate disciplines, Labiib Solutions designed the Platinum Cinema Suite as a complete environment.
At the heart of the room is a 9.4.6 cinema system, specified to deliver the scale, immersion and performance expected from a reference-level private cinema.
Artcoustic was selected following the technical design process, with Labiib Solutions highlighting the combination of sound quality, product dimensions and the scalability and consistency of the Artcoustic range as important factors in the specification.
For a cinema of this level, that flexibility is critical. Loudspeakers need to deliver the required performance while integrating correctly into the physical and acoustic design of the room.
PERFORMANCE STARTS WITH DESIGN
Artcoustic supported the project during the design phase, with Room Analysis and 3D Room Renders proving particularly valuable to the Labiib Solutions team.
These tools allowed performance and integration to be considered before installation, helping the team develop a cinema in which the technical system could work as an integral part of the architecture rather than being added to it afterwards.
The result is a room where technology doesn’t compete with the interior. Instead, everything works towards the same goal: creating an immersive cinema experience.
A TRUE REFERENCE-LEVEL PRIVATE CINEMA
For the team behind it, The Platinum Cinema Suite represents exactly what can happen when acoustics, technology, design and craftsmanship are considered together from the beginning:
“We are extremely proud of the final outcome of the Platinum Cinema Suite. Our goal was to create a true reference-level private cinema where technology, acoustics, interior design, and craftsmanship come together as one experience.
Seeing the room completed and experiencing its performance for the first time was incredibly rewarding for the entire team. Every detail was carefully considered, and the final result reflects the passion, collaboration, and attention to detail that went into the project.
Being recognized as a CEDIA Awards finalist makes this project even more special for our team.””
The Platinum Cinema Suite demonstrates what dedicated cinema design is ultimately about: not individual products or technologies, but creating a room where every element works together to deliver the experience.
RECOGNISED BY CEDIA
That attention to detail has now earned The Platinum Cinema Suite recognition on an international stage.
Labiib Solutions has been selected as an EMEA Project Finalist in the 2026 CEDIA Smart Home Awards, placing the project among the outstanding smart home and cinema installations selected by CEDIA’s judging panel this year.
For Labiib Solutions, the strength of the project’s documentation and delivery were important elements in creating an award-worthy submission.
More importantly, the finished cinema delivered where it mattered most.
According to Labiib Solutions, the client was extremely happy with the completed room, which exceeded their expectations.
