Movement
is the meaning, the aim, the medium of cinema, transformation of
color, of hotspots, shadows, forms, where transformation itself is
not less important than actually shadows,hotspots and forms.
Pushkinsky
is the main cinema theatre in Russia. This is the symbolic place of
Russian film industry. The building has to solve problems of its
self-positioning.
The
number of the main problems has identified our solution of facades
and entourage of the cinema. Pushkinsky has to stop being a detached
‘island’ and has to be incorporated into an urban environment and
become a social and active place.
Image
of flash, glow, light of overhead projector symbolizes the movement
and object attraction in its static form. Cinema is animated picture.
Static facade with constant moving effect (symbolizes) shows the idea
of cinematography and passes it to architecture of the building. Edge
structure is made from semi-transparent DuPont™
Corian® and
it
looks like the light beams, rather their vector, and lightning, which
is built between can change colors and luminosity, creates not just
the effect of movement and also different atmosphere near by the
building and inside in the foyer. It happens so because the border
between inner and outer spaces is being erased. The visor which is
overflows into the building combines the spaces of park and the
theatre lobby. Pushkinskaya square appears to be socialy active,
exactly that way as it should be - unique and opened to the citizens.
By
smoothly rising hill (with using DuPont™
Typar® Geosynthetics)
Pushkinsky square is connecting with the terrace around the theatre,
so the building obtains easy links to the city environment. Green
hill with illuminated paths (made from DuPont™
SentryGlas®)
is leading to the cinema building. It forms the new space for the
citizen activities and also this solution lets the Pushkinsky cinema
take active part in environment composition.
Our
main idea is to make the Pushkinsky cinema theatre more attractive to
people and sociable with an environment, to let citizens be proud and
admire the main country cinema theatre.
