Pushkinsky Cinema Jewel
The Pushkinsky Cinema was built to display the most important cinematic
productions in Russia. Built at Pushkin Square, it became the landmark of
the country's film festivals, a palace for the Moscow International Film
Festivals (MIFF) for movie protagonists and moviegoers from Moscow and abroad.
Our proposal for the cinema's architectural shape is dictated by three
main requirements: visual contact with the Pushkin Square has to be
maintained, the Pushkinsky Cinema's original architects’ vision is displayed in
its entirety and the building has to adapt to the historical surrounding amid
the historic, busiest square of Moscow. The measure of performance is relative
to each project’s constraints and aspirations. The Pushkinsky Jewel vision
exacts sophisticated demands: it must serve as a key driver in the Pushkin
Square new Masterplan, embody best sustainable practices, adhere strictly to
budget, and most importantly, exhibit and incubate design for the Pushkinsky Cinema.
Before explaining about our design, we discuss the inspiration.
Paying tribute to the 19th century author, which the square was named
after, Pushkin blended Old Slavonic with vernacular Russian into the rich,
melancholic language. Pushkin's Romantic contemporaries and poetries were
central representative of The Age of Romanticism in Russian literature.
Alexander Pushkin introduced Russia to all European literary genres as well as
opened natural speech and foreign influences to create modern poetic Russian.
Though his life was succinct, he left a legacy of nearly every literary genre
of today: lyric poetry, narrative poetry, the novel, the short story, the
drama, the critical essay, and even the personal letter. Pushkin's
intelligence, sharpness of his opinion, his devotion to romanticism, realistic
thinking and incredible historical and political intuition make him one of the
greatest Russian national jewels.
It is his life quite simply prompted the idea that, if staged correctly,
we would commemorate a new Pushkinsky Cinema that could accompany his words.
At the heart of the Pushkin Square is a glass ‘jewel’ box, specially
designed to receive, preserve and display the cinema’s entire architecture.At its base, the cinema seems to
‘float’ on more than 25 pillars, which are extraordinary setting for the site’s
functional purposes. On the first floor is the grand ‘Walk-around Gallery’,
which now finds itself from the sanctuaries discovered from the original unused
space. The Walk-around Gallery will be twenty-four meters high and naturally
lit, containing the magnificent Pushkinsky Cinema, which decorated the first
MIFF Palace at Pushkin Square.
The Pushkinsky Jewel’s grand Walk-around Gallery
directly links the cinema to the landmark square urban fabric, allowing the
city of Moscow can inscribe its visions.The visual link between the Pushkinsky Cinema and
the Pushkin Square is achieved through the glass curtain walls/ceiling
using DuPont™ SentryGlas® structural interlayer. By enclosing the balcony
space currently exposed, visitors can enjoy a breathtaking view of the square,
of its historic surrounding mini-park and monument under any weather and climate.
DuPont™ SentryGlas® structural interlayer’s are chosen, among others,
due to its protection against wind, weather and impact protection. By utilizing
coated low-E glass, we increase the building overall energy efficiency – it can
assist in engineering more effective thermal insulation and controlling the
transmittance of V radiation. DuPont™ SentryGlas®, offering long-term
durability even when edges are exposed to weather and less susceptible to
moisture intrusion, and remaining free from clouding even after years of service,
makes our specification choice ideal.
The existing glass panel entrance (and lateral
sides) attached to the structure overhang will be removed to form a more open
space upon entering The Pushkinsky Jewel from the square. Both side (northwest
and southeast) sections of the cinema’s cladding structure will be preserved
using careful restoration process to bring them back to their former glory.
ConCEPT Proposal: THE Pushkinsky JEWEL (cont.)
By night, due to the position of the cinema and
because of the buildings around it, in order to be properly appreciated and
avoid any reflection needs very localized lighting. The spirit is to create a
system that would always and only allow the cinema to speak for itself. The
only way to achieve this is integration. We advance by degrees. We envision a
lighting system that transform into a kind of fluid which flows over Pushkinsky
Cinema’s façade: a series of spotlights
that light up simultaneously or one section after another with different
intensities to tell a story.
We imagined watching one of Pushkin’s poetries come
to life – through the , which symbolizes the sequences of scenes
that are the plot of the legend. It is with light, we have interpreted
Alexander Pushkin’s words and legacy – The Pushkinsky Jewel. The conclusion is an unexpected and iconic building concept that is the embodiment of culture
and economy of Moscow.
