NorStone Eden Vision

The NorStone Eden Vision 240 is a comprehensive integration solution for modern home cinema setups built around ultra-short-throw projectors. This cabinet, measuring 2.63 meters long, combines a dedicated projector bay, a fully retractable system for the motorized screen, and acoustic storage to conceal soundbars or speakers. The result: a streamlined living room where the home cinema equipment disappears when not in use, without compromising performance.

Integrating the projector: discretion and precision

The central bay accommodates ultra-short-throw projectors, devices that cast a large image from just a few tens of centimeters away. Positioning the projector in this bay is no trivial matter: it determines the quality of the final image. Placing it too high or too low leads to geometric distortion that even electronic corrections struggle to fully compensate.

The Eden Vision has been optimized to work with the Lumene Eden Extra Bright 240C screen, a floor-rising motorized screen with ALR (Ambient Light Rejection) technology. This special fabric rejects ambient light while reflecting the projector’s beam toward viewers, delivering preserved contrast even in broad daylight. The 240 cm screen (100-inch diagonal) attaches to the back of the cabinet via a clip system, then disappears completely into its housing after use thanks to its aluminum hinges.

This “all-in-one” integration radically transforms everyday use. No need to leave a large screen visible at all times or mount a projector on the ceiling with all the wiring constraints. The system powers up when you want it and vanishes afterward, returning the space to its other functions.

Acoustic storage: the art of hiding without degrading

The cabinet’s front doors, equipped with gas struts for smooth and silent opening, stand out thanks to their black acoustic fabric front. This fabric isn’t just a cosmetic covering: it lets sound pass through without noticeable alteration. Speakers or the soundbar can remain concealed behind the closed doors while still delivering clear, detailed sound.

This approach addresses a common challenge in contemporary living rooms: how to preserve audio quality without compromising the room’s visual appeal. Traditional acoustic fabrics have an open weave that allows sound waves to pass through without excessive reflection or treble attenuation. The deep black of the front also creates an elegant contrast with the glass top while absorbing stray light during viewing sessions.

The generous storage compartments can accommodate sizable speakers or multiple sources (amplifier, Blu-ray player, game console, set-top box). Cable management—always tricky in AV setups—benefits from dedicated pass-throughs to keep everything organized.

The motorized platform: the quest for the perfect image

As an option, the motorized platform adds a feature that truly changes the user experience. Ultra-short-throw projectors are particularly sensitive to positioning: even a few millimeters of shift can result in a slightly blurry or off-center image. If the projector moves (handling during cleaning, an accidental knock), image sharpness suffers.

The motorized platform memorizes the projector’s ideal position and automatically returns to it every time you use the system. No more tedious adjustments or visual checks: the system ensures a consistently sharp, perfectly aligned image, session after session. This automation reflects Norstone’s philosophy: simplifying the daily use of complex technologies.

The motorized mechanism operates smoothly and discreetly. The user sets the optimal position once—usually during initial installation—and the system takes care of the rest. This feature proves especially valuable in households where multiple people use the equipment, eliminating the risk of accidental misalignment.

Delivery designed for installation

The cabinet arrives in three separate elements: the central unit (29.3 kg net) and the left and right side units (40.3 kg net each). This modularity makes transport and handling easier, especially upstairs or in tight spaces. Each package includes the necessary screws, a detailed assembly guide, and the required tools.

Assembly, while requiring a minimum of care, remains accessible without special expertise. The provided instructions guide you step by step, while the well-prepared components (precise drilling, tidy fitment) minimize difficulties. Allow around two hours for two people, longer if you take the time to organize the cabling perfectly.

Adjustable feet allow you to level the cabinet—an essential compensation on uneven floors. A perfectly horizontal cabinet ensures not only overall stability but also the proper operation of the screen retraction system, whose mechanisms perform best on a flat surface.

The modern home cinema ecosystem

The Eden Vision fits into the recent evolution of home cinema at home. Ultra-short-throw projectors have transformed layout possibilities: whereas a traditional projector required ceiling mounting with several meters of throw distance, these new devices simply sit on a cabinet. Their increased brightness, often above 2000 lumens, even allows daytime viewing with the curtains open—especially when paired with an ALR screen.

This ambient light rejection technology is a major advancement. Early generations of screens with standard matte white surfaces lost a lot of contrast in the presence of stray light. ALR fabrics, thanks to their specific microstructure, absorb light coming from the ceiling and walls while efficiently reflecting the projector’s beam. The result: an image that retains deep blacks and saturated colors even in a lit room.

Combining an ultra-short-throw projector, a motorized ALR screen, and the Eden Vision cabinet creates a coherent system where each element enhances the performance of the others. The cabinet positions the projector at the ideal height for the screen, the screen rejects ambient light to preserve contrast, and the whole setup retracts to free up space.
