DESIGN NAME: Coastal Cinema
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Cinema
INSPIRATION: Blue and green are the two colors that one would associate with when thinking about the ocean. Breaking the social norm, the design team got inspired by the coastal geography, the study of the dynamic interface between the ocean and the land, particularly wave action, hence the creation of this magnificent cinema. The oval-shaped gigantic lobby greets the guests with its curvy form, just like the coastal line between the land and the ocean. Powder-coating metal rods were built along the lobby, simulating wave actions, falling and rising accordingly.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: When staring at this wall of waves, one may feel like standing onshore observing ocean surface waves.
Sitting in the middle of the lobby are ticketing offices shaped like natural stones, blending in with the surrounding.

CHALLENGE: Budget would be the biggest challenge. Under a rather tight budget, the designers have managed to maximize the power of materials and composition configuration. Actualizing a raw and hip cinema design where movie-goers may genuinely adore more than the movie itself.
