Natuross makes hand-hammered copper feature walls, screen surrounds, seating wall panels, side wall panels, and signs for outdoor cinema areas and backyard movie spaces. The most considered outdoor cinema decor available — every piece an original work, designed for your specific space, made to your exact dimensions, in any of 15 finishes. UV-resistant, weather-resistant outdoor lacquer. Over 10,000 custom copper projects installed across the US.
The outdoor cinema area is the most theatrical outdoor space in the home — the outdoor room built around the act of watching, the shared experience of the film, the evening that becomes an event. The copper piece that makes the outdoor cinema feel as considered as the indoor home cinema it mirrors — in the dark.
Why Copper at the Outdoor Cinema
Copper is alive in the dark — the hammered surface catching and reflecting the ambient light of the outdoor cinema, the warm metal most itself in the low light of the evening. Copper is the material of the great cinema and theatre tradition — the copper lantern, the copper fixture, the copper detail. Black Copper and Copper–Black are the most cinema-specific finishes in the catalog — the warm dark surfaces that make the outdoor screen feel as considered as a professional installation. And copper is fully weather-resistant — UV-resistant outdoor lacquer handles direct sun, rain, and frost.
Screen Wall
An outdoor cinema screen wall panel — the copper on the screen wall, a simple hammered texture in a dark finish, a film reel composition, a celestial composition. A full screen wall panel. A screen surround panel — the copper framing the film, the warm metal surrounding the screen. A freestanding screen back panel — the copper behind the freestanding screen, a cinematic composition, a clapperboard.
Feature Wall & Seating
An outdoor cinema feature wall panel — a large-format cinematic composition, a celestial composition, a dark finish, the cinema name in bold copper letterforms. A full outdoor cinema feature wall. A seating back wall panel — the copper behind the audience, a celestial composition, the stars above the outdoor cinema.
Garden, Deck, Rooftop & Pergola Cinema
A garden cinema feature wall panel — a botanical composition, a celestial composition, a dark finish. A deck cinema feature wall panel. A rooftop cinema feature wall panel — a celestial composition, a city skyline composition. A rooftop cinema screen surround — the copper framing the film above the city. A pergola cinema feature wall panel — a botanical composition, a dark finish.
Wall Art & Sculptures
A film reel panel — the most cinema-specific wall piece. A clapperboard panel. A star map panel — the night sky above the outdoor cinema. A film reel in three-dimensional copper. A clapperboard sculpture. A popcorn box — the defining object of the cinema experience, made permanent in copper. An owl — the bird of the outdoor evening, the most evening-cinema-specific animal wall piece. Made to any size, prepared for outdoor installation.
Outdoor Cinema Signs
The cinema name. A now showing sign. Cinema rules. A cinema philosophy. A film quote. The founding year. An intermission sign. A do not disturb sign. See all sign types on the Copper Signs & Plaques page.
"The [Family Name] Cinema" · "Tonight’s Feature: [Film Title]" · "Every film is better under the stars." · "Popcorn is mandatory." · "Silence during the film." · "Screening in Progress — Do Not Enter" · "The show must go on."
Finish Note
Black Copper and Copper–Black are the most cinema-specific finishes — the warm, dark surfaces that make the outdoor screen feel as considered as a professional installation. Natural Copper works well in outdoor cinemas with a relaxed, garden aesthetic. Silver works especially well with a contemporary, minimal aesthetic.

"The screen surround panel and the film reel wall sculpture changed the entire outdoor cinema. Every screening, every evening under the stars, the copper makes the outdoor entertainment space feel as considered as an indoor home cinema — the warm dark metal framing the screen, the hammered surface alive in the light of the film. The outdoor cinema went from a screen in the garden to a destination. The copper made it theatrical." — Natuross customer
