The building housing the "Muranow" Cinema was designed in 1948-56 by arch. Bohdan Lachert. The investment involves the adaptation of a former boiler room (currently unused) into a fifth cinema auditorium for 71 spectators. It is planned to demolish masonry internal walls, slightly lower the floor level of the auditorium and shape the floor in an amphitheatrical manner. One of the existing reinforced concrete pillars supporting the auditorium ceiling will be cut out after the installation of the steel support structure.
A corridor will be pierced from the current lobby, which also serves as a café, to the vestibule of the former boiler room. The viewer's path towards the fifth screening room will lead through a series of industrial rooms, a reminiscence of the purely technical original function of the adapted halls and corridors. Due to the difference in levels, it will be necessary to deepen part of the vestibule and build stairs and a lift for the disabled in this place.
The floor and stairs will be made of architectural concrete. All steel elements will be maintained in black or dark grey. Roughness and signs of use will remain on the existing plaster walls. The walls will feature three large-format illuminated photographs of iconic Polish actors: Barbara Brylska, Andrzej Łapicki and Zbigniew Cybulski. A delicate female silhouette on the axis of the entrance and two huge male heads gazing at her at the sides create a silent triangle intended to surprise the viewer entering the tall foyer space through a narrow corridor.
