HANGZHOU KERRY CENTRE PREMIERE CINEMAS
The round shape of reflectors is highlighted and presented in different styles throughout the cinema
Reflector is an essential accessory for cinematography, its specially designed reflective surface redirects light towards objects in a scene. Basing on the round shape of reflectors, the theme is being presented in different styles throughout the cinema. To illustrate different degrees of light intensity, the main colors used in the cinema are yellow, brown and dove.
On the ceiling of the lobby, round and brown aluminium plates are grouped and arranged in different manners, some are stacked into a pile, some intersect with each other in various positions, bringing varieties to the space.
The theme is presented abstractly in other areas, e.g. the curvy floor pattern echoes with round shaped reflectors, the light from floor lamps in the corridor creates circular halo on the wall. In the auditorium, circular plates made of sound absorbing panels are placed along the wall, pointing towards various angles, as if reflecting light to the scene.
