Art appears as an idea and means of design. We adopted this method to omit all things except for space and art, for they overpower everything else, and the temperament of space, and the field that people could feel are both guided by art.
Art is the solidification of spirit and emotions. It boosts the energy of art in the living space and brings broader and more diverse spiritual experiences, thus eventually opening another window for the final design experience.
Film directors have used megaphones to communicate with their cast and crew on sets where it was hard to hear. The megaphone became an iconic clichéd symbol of a movie director. The designers were inspired by these cone-shaped object and have thus developed various functional objects that are placed within the interior to echo with the ‘megaphone’ theme, e.g. seatings at the arrival lobby, light features in the auditorium and washbasins in the washroom.
The colors originate from the contrasting nature of colors in negative film; film – the cinematic connection. The idea incorporates family friendly and fully functional playground inspired design. Children & adults are encouraged to come and interact with and have fun in this playground before and after the movies.
