With the widespread of 3D and even 4D high definition movies available on global market, the old method of filming has gone scarce, if not extinct. When thinking of the theme for this cinema, the designers want to trace back to the roots when film making began. Back in the 19th century, photographers captured continual images and stored them on a single compact reel of film. This ancient object – roll films, was being symbolized all over the cinema, reminding the audience the long forgotten history behind the scene.  Image Courtesy © One Plus Partnership Limited

The white background engulf the entire space, motioning itself smoothly along the wall of the building. Its flexibility reflects the nature of roll films. Thin pieces of black stripes inter cut the white surface, resembling the breaking and reunifying of roll films, forming rectangles of different sizes and shapes.

The edge of the table of the ticketing office bends smoothly along the ambient. The bending angles match those ‘roll films’ on the wall miraculously, which brings an extra dramatic vibe to the whole design.

Light and shadows fulfil every corner; one might have mistaken it as the shooting spot of the newest film. Audience might fall into the illusion of fantasizing s/he is the lead actor/actress in a romantic comedy.

Grey stripes cut the black space into different geometric shapes and sizes, contrary to the rectangles on the wall, giving the design a frolicsome note.

They intersect along the wall, which creates an additional multidimensional atmosphere, hoping to provide the movie goers a warm and comfy viewing environment.
