The
premise of intervention on the façade of the Pushkinsky Cinema was taken, by not
focusing only on a view point, but covering a more general analysis,
recognizing its importance as a cultural focus of Russia and its status as an
icon of Pushkin Square. By designing a new facade the intent is to arouse
the curiosity of all city residents, visitors and regular users of the cinema
by reviving its memory and promoting its importance as a central site of the
Moscow International Film Festival. The project seeks to develop a response that
translates a balance between the condition of permanence of the memory space of
the cinema and its rebirth, creating a harmonious and homogeneous whole. The idea was to keep the main glass facade (with a
new structure revision) in order to lighten the existing atrium but involve it
with a new skin. A continues skin that involves the whole building acting
as a single coherent element, an image that we can find in the trees of Pushkin
Square. The skin concept refers to
the mass of trees in Pushkin Square that precedes the building. By involving the building with a net of tree
branches, the underlying main goal is the fusion between the building and
adjacent square. In this scenario the surrounding nature, kind of
absorbs the building working like a cloth and defining the exterior surface. The surrounding nature thus appears as the theme of
the competition - a white forest (by using corian as the main material) that becomes dense and involves the existing
volume, creating a sense of unity, of trajectory and at the same time as
closing the course of anyone who crosses and experience the Pushkin Square.
