Children's room:
A family-friendly cinema, truly tailored to the needs of children and their parents. The view from the cinema seats and boxes on the raised platform is guaranteed for everyone, but we can get even closer to the screen if we choose the upholstered recliners or poufs. Backlit and hidden lighting provide a glimmer of light during the screening, so that even the smallest ones are not afraid. Bright and pastel colors, soft textile surfaces, rounded shapes, curves, waves, circles, fun designs: the interior design motifs flow from the hall into the foyer and the dedicated bathroom. The projection doesn't stop at the cinema screen either: it extends to the walls and the floor, so the film literally surrounds the audience.
Pixel room:
As the most prominent element of the interior design concept of the cinema hall, we chose the visual basic unit of the digital film world: the pixel. The tiny pixels that form an image or moving image on the projection screen and the basic grid they define are magnified and projected in a coordinated manner onto the other boundary surfaces of the hall and leave their mark on them. By increasing the size of the pixel basic unit to a human scale, the large hall seems to grow even larger. Upon entering, we find ourselves in a gigantic, three-dimensional grid. The overwhelming spatial experience is further enhanced by the programmable LED lighting system, with which the color harmony of the hall can be tuned to the currently projected film.
