Amazon/Mayan-themed home theatre room - designed by Atlanta Home Theatre (early 2000s)

"Step into this theater and find yourself somewhere between the Great Andes and the plains of Patagonia deep in the Amazon jungle, home of the Mayan people. Set between the doorway of an abandoned temple and its altar of worship, this habitat is alive with the sounds of wild birds and animal calls heard beneath the waterfall. Step carefully through the plush tropics and gaze at the exquisite authentic markings made of yellow ocher, lime, hematite, charcoal, blood, and other pigments

Illustrating gods and relics ot that time. Notice a purple haze descending from the starry sky over the indigenous landscape of fossilized ferns and flowers planted directly into the theater's floor. Observe the tiny lights illuminating the stone pathway and the massive columns marking the entry. The Mayan god of light was carved with precision into the altar between two flickering torches. The god of water and the god of corn are seen holding a DVD and remote in their hands."
