CinemaTech seating

Seating made to order, one seat at a time

Since the first Valentino was sketched in 1998, CinemaTech has made seating that turns a room into a destination. We help you choose it, specify it for your room and install it.

The short answer

What makes CinemaTech seating different?

Each seat is built to order by artisans in Germany or the USA, in the size, configuration, motors and upholstery your room calls for. German models offer three-motor zero gravity motion with independent headrest control. Seating is planned inside CinemaTech's room drawings, so spacing, riser depth and sightlines are right before anything is made.

Seating questions

Where is CinemaTech seating made?

CinemaTech builds seating in two places. Its German-built models, such as Valentino, Bordeaux, Montecito and the CinemaTech Living collection, are made in Germany. Its US-built models, such as Hudson, Greenwich, Montclair, Paramount and Lonestar, are handcrafted in the USA.

What is the difference between German and US models?

Most German-built models use a three-motor system that moves the headrest, back and footrest independently, with backlit black or silver switches that include USB-C. US-built models use a two-motor mechanism for the back and footrest with a silver USB-C switch.

Can I choose my own fabric or leather?

Yes. CinemaTech offers hundreds of leathers and fabrics, including European leathers and Alcantara, and many models accept COM or COL, meaning your own material from your interior designer.

Can I try the seats before ordering?

Yes. We bring samples to your home or our Norwood studio, and you can visit a CinemaTech showroom in Los Angeles, Dallas, Miami or New York. CinemaTech offers up to a $1,000 travel credit toward qualifying seating or acoustics purchases of $50,000 or more.

How do you choose between recliners and sofas?

Individual recliners give each person their own space and position, which suits dedicated cinemas. Sofas and sectionals are better for families, couples and media rooms. Many rooms mix both, with a sofa in front and recliners behind.
