Lewis CaliburnCinema Luxe, the UK-based luxury cinema interior specialist, has announced its expansion into the United Arab Emirates, bringing its distinctive blend of high-end interior design and specialist cinema construction to one of the world’s most design-driven luxury markets.
Known for creating bespoke private cinema environments that merge architectural elegance with immersive performance, Cinema Luxe has built a reputation throughout the UK and Europe for delivering refined entertainment spaces tailored to the lifestyles of discerning clients, developers, architects and interior designers. The company’s growing international profile has also been reinforced through the launch of the Cinema Luxe Lounge within Harrods.
The move into the UAE reflects increasing global demand for elevated home entertainment experiences, particularly within the region’s growing luxury residential sector, where appetite for premium lifestyle amenities and statement entertainment spaces continues to rise.
Supporting Cinema Luxe’s expansion across the Emirates is Shane Agnew, Business Development Manager for Cinema Luxe UAE, who will lead regional growth and partner engagement throughout the region, working closely with developers, integrators, architects, and private clients to introduce Cinema Luxe’s design-led approach to cinema spaces.
Speaking about the launch, Shane Agnew comments, “The UAE market presents an incredible opportunity for Cinema Luxe. There is a genuine appetite here for raising the standard of cinema design beyond purely technical spaces and towards something far more immersive, architectural and experience-led. We are also seeing strong appreciation for British design, craftsmanship, and specialist expertise within the luxury residential market. Cinema Luxe brings a unique combination of interior design, construction knowledge and cinema-focused detailing that we believe resonates strongly with the expectations of clients and partners across the UAE.”
Unlike traditional AV-focused cinema installations, Cinema Luxe specialises in complete interior environments, integrating acoustic performance, architectural detailing, luxury finishes and technical coordination into a unified design and build process.
The company’s expansion into the UAE follows a period of sustained international growth for the brand, including its recent entry into the Indian market, and reinforces Cinema Luxe’s ambition to become a globally recognised name within high-end entertainment interiors.
Darren Barker, Design Director at Cinema Luxe, adds,“The UAE is a natural fit for Cinema Luxe. The region’s focus on luxury living, architectural ambition and experiential spaces aligns perfectly with our philosophy and approach to cinema design. Following our expansion into India, establishing a presence in the UAE is another important milestone for the business and reflects the increasing international demand for design-led luxury cinema spaces. Our goal has always been to create cinema environments that feel as considered and luxurious as the rest of the home and we are excited to bring that vision to clients and partners throughout the UAE.”
Cinema Luxe UAE will offer both design consultancy and full turnkey cinema interior solutions, supporting projects ranging from private residences and penthouses to large-scale luxury developments and hospitality spaces.
