ABSTRACT Cinema and architecture are two different creative fields that follows similar line of thoughts. A strong narrative in a cinema builds up the curiosity towards the climax or the grand revelation of the plot. In a sense, every architectural experience path tries to build up the very same curiosity towards the culmination of the journey through the spaces.

Despite having a long history of cinematic grandeur and extreme fan culture, Chennai lacks proper celebratory space to express and absorb this spirit of cinema fanaticism.

The major aim is to make the user go through a journey parallel to that of a cinematic plot. The study tries to bring in events and points from a cinematic narrative to a user experience path in the cinema mall. Climax acts as the binding factor in the motion through the user experience path.

The desired outcome is to induce an emotional effervescence in the diehard fans and drop mental landmarks in their minds.

Hence, the blocks are positioned to maximize the movement-oriented experience culminating with an open space of climax. This will depend on a few liminal spaces that will at times hold an assigned singular function or function as a space of perception for the “fan”.

Exchange of the cinema culture is to be served through celebratory, commemorative and technological exchange.

A space dedicated entirely for a cinema fanatic is the desired output along with the satisfaction of the generic crowd / users. The spatial movement is thus a combination of the experience path for artists, Idols, audience, fans and the generic users.

1.INTRODUCTION

Inspite of the surge of commercial cinema , South India still creates a considerably

high number of “world cinema” movies every year than its north , east and west counterparts. Be it the powerful yet strong storylines from Vetrimaran or simple yet beautiful rendition of normal human life stories by Mani Rathnam or the peek at a simplitarian’s life through malayalam cinemas, Chennai has proved to be the biggest consumer of them all and it deserves to have a celebratory place for th exchange of this culture called cinema.

Chennai (Madras) was the hot hub for South-Indian and at times even cinema at na-

tional level. Artists travelled to Chennai to shoot movies as the major film stidio hud, Kodambakkam housed most A-list directors, actors and technicians. Dreamers used to travel to “Madras” to pursue their film dreams. Even today, when most studios have shut down and the film shooting is done outdoor and using technology, Chennai has a very large population cinema fanatics who take interest in both the yesteryear goldies and the masterpieces of today.

1.1 AIM To bring in a cultural identity for the cinematic culture of the city of Chennai.

1.2 OBJECTIVES A space for exchange of cinematic interests -fan based, production based and delivery /

performance based.

While the movie theaters are located in a mountain-like building, the Center’s public space is shared between an outdoor cinema and a huge public space which is called the Red Carpet Area i.e. reception area. LED saturated outdoor roof elements acting as a virtual sky connect building-objects and plaza-zones into a continuous, multifunctional public urban space. The design of these spaces supports flexible, hybrid functionality that can be used both during the annual festival period and day-to-day use without interruption.

3.2 CASE STUDY 02 - EYE FILM MUSEUM (AMSTERDAM

| 3250 m2 | 2011 | Delugan Meissl Associated Architects)

The access through the large southern glass front is defined by an intense optical reference to the outside before the room widens when coming closer to the ticket and information counter. Cloakrooms, offices, and the museum shop can be accessed from here.

The way into the foyer which acts as both, a dwelling and distribution area, is defined by lighting, materials and spatial development alongside the glass front. The fluidly laid out, pleasant terrace acts as an extension of this communicative space. At the centre, the open interior unfolds its full dimension, and all internal pathways are integrated into the spatial formulation of this neuralgic zone. The usability concept generates good orientation and unimposing freedom of movement at all points, whereby the foyer represents the exit- and endpoint of any form of use.

Tribune-like steps define partly assigned, partly changeable function areas. The exhibition level, projection rooms and the restaurant can be accessed via this room topography. A staircase leads to the lower level where the office area, the cantine, and the film laboratory with an adjacent restauration workshop are situated. It is where the valuable content of the institute’s archive is professionally looked after. Three screening rooms can be accessed at the rear side of the foyer level. In compliance with their function they are designed as condensed and itroverted passages.

On the higher level, adjacent to the restaurant, is the gallery area which is Amsterdam’s biggest cohesive exhibition area. An eastwards facing multifunctional STAIRS TO GALLERY

room unit - the educational room - can be temporarily added to the exhibition area.

The room’s floor-to-ceiling glass opens the view onto the lower entrance area.

A generous staircase leads from the entrance of the exhibition area to the upper level and towards the big showroom. This

3.3 CASE STUDY 03 - CINETECA NACIONAL SIGLO XXI (MEXICO | 49,000 m2 | 2014 | Rojkind Arquitectos) The axes intersection became a new 80m x 40m public plaza sheltered from the weather by a hovering canopy connecting the existing complex with the new screening rooms. Clad in composite aluminium panels, with varied size triangular perforations, the roof structure wraps around the new screening rooms and becomes their facade. The sheltered space functions as the foyer for the old and new screening rooms and can accommodate additional program options such as concerts, theatre, exhibitions, etc.

An outdoor amphitheatre, extensive landscaping and new retail spaces were added to the original program expanding the possibilities for social and cultural interaction and exchanges, and giving the complex a university campus feel.

4.SPECIAL STUDY 4.1 GENERAL STUDY CLIMAX - THE FINAL FOCAL POINT This is the destination of the focal point of a special Journey. It is placed in an appropriate position in the movement path; this may vary, perhaps at the middle or end to gather impact. Each space therefore it organized in an hierarchical odd which ends up with this central or Major space, this begets the climax of the total special experience The climax ultimately acquires predominance of a spatial experience and communicates this to the user. This Is the essence of the total special experience.

INTERMEDIATE CLIMAX - THE NECESSARY SUBSIDARY Introduced by lobby places intervals connecting price spaces, to the main space. They perform a specific meaning gradually serving the heighten quality of the main space that is climax. This may also act to provide and immediate movement before the climax, creating the transformation possible. The proper handling of scale, volume, textural effects of a light and darkness makes the required transformation in order to receive the major Space. The intermediate climaxes accumulate the bracket major climates, and creates a powerful impact the emotions and expectations of the spectator.

4.1.2 TOOLS 4.1.2.1.PHYSICAL PENETRABILITY It establishes a visual continuity and a constant optical and perceptual connection between the building and the environment in which it is installed, between inside and outside, trailing the route from the confined towards infinity.

HILL OF BUDDHA - TADAO ANDO (statue of Budha is almost completely hidden by the dome of the building unto the spectator reaches the point of focus )

4.1.2.2.FUNCTIONAL CORRELEATION Functional transparency ensures a high level of cross-correlation and grouping of similar operations. This is often dictated by the functional programs themselves, or else it is added in the program and constitutes part of the architect’s intention.

TAJ MAHAL - ENTRANCE (the path to the entrance is perpendicular to the entry doorway hiding the Taj Mahal until the point of entry )

11

4.1.2.3.SYNTHETIC DISTINCTNESS It is the synthetic perception, which allows the reading of space through successive conscious groupings and divisions, following the architect’s will.

CHURCH OF LIGHT - BY TADAO ANDO (deliberate attempt at creating a hidden path of revelation to the church)

4.1.2.4 PSYCHOLOGICAL COHERENCY The next tool of climax has to do with the psychological quality of the notion of continuity, union and belonging. Something which is present and accessible, at least visually, is recognizable and familiar and conceived mentally.

JEWISH MUSEUM - BY DANIEL LEBISKIND (a dark interior lane leading to a narrowing space with skylight giving a sudden influx of light along with the contrast of metal clankings to the deafening silence )

4.1.2.5.ETHICAL CLARITY It is the philosophical implications that transparency holds. While they are related to a noble, immaterial notion, simultaneously there is a potent, direct link with the first version of transparency, the natural transparency, that involves the concepts of natural nakedness, instinctive human reflexes in this, self-exposure, indiscretion etc.

4.2 INFERENCES 4.2.1. PHYSICAL PENETRABILITY •On the inside, the tunnels produce a similarly theatrical experience for visitors coming for operas, concerts, plays, and other events.

•A bridge on the fourth level and windows on the fifth overlook the grand space. The lobby’s square ceiling somewhat diminishes the bold impact of the cylinder, but its intersection with a circular skylight creates the kind of dramatic daylighting for which Ando is known.

• From the lobby, the foyer tube skillfully compresses the visitor’s experience, allowing for an explosion of space when entering the theater .

VIEW THROUGH THE PUNCTURE

FIG 4.2.2

SHANGHAI POLY GRAND THEATRE- TADAO ANDO •The punctures acts as a visually opaque peek into the closed volume from the outside, without revealing the activities inside.

•From inside it acts a dramatic climax to the user coming from the theatres and also to the users inside a few functional spaces through whicjh the punctures are made.

4.2.2. FUNCTIONAL CORRELEATION •A silvery shining and softly deformed ‘cloud’ serves as a central orientation and access element on the plaza.

•With its curved surface the Cloud opens into the space reflecting the idea of two museums under one roof

JINGDEZHEN IMPERIAL KILN MUSEUM •The foliage surrounding the complex blocks view from the entry pints and the entrance leads the user into teh basement from where they have to travel to the ground floor to view the actual view.

•This denial and reward dramatise the ultimate revelation of the final view.

4.2.4. PSYCHOLOGICAL COHERENCY •The horizontality of the site in combination with the light theme has been used to create illusions of infinitely long path that gives revelatory experience in the end after the exit from the dark cinema hall .

•Use of optical illusion to create spaces that gives surreal psychological experiences along with the feelinf of movement.

•Can be achieved using play of simple geometrical elements like lines and planes along with the use of light , colors and materials.

•Con: could create confusion in wayfinding.

4.2.5. ETHICAL CLARITY •The arena that can be accessed from the screening theatre by a strategically placed transition space acts as a place reserved for self reflection after a very moving cinema experience.

•This area supposedly completes the entire cinema watching experience.

5.3 SITE ZONING The different blocks are to be be arranged with respect to accessibility and priority of usage.The distance of the block from the primary entrance i.e. the entrance plaza is determined by its order of importance in the user experience path. Position of the entrance plaza is fixed using the cues from the site study in combination with the need to maximise the user experience.

6.CONCEPT 6.1 CONCEPT 6.1.1 PRIMACY EFFECT •Logic of first impression.

•A film’s opening sets a benchmark against which we measure what happens later.

•Architectural narratives are also driven by similar intents of curiosity, suspense and surprise.

•This can sustain a continuous interest in the spacial interest and foster a sense of attachment to the space, provided , the curiosity and suspense trigger exciting memories within the users’s mind.

6.1.2 FOCALISATION •This particular point in a cinema is where the plot remains , for most part in the same space as a particular character and is focalised through that character.

•Such techniques induce the response to the characters .

•In architecture, focalisation of every character moving through the space will help us generate unique trajectories and narratives for every individual.This can bring about a collective memory and architectural narrative to the crowd. denial and reward effect

6.1.3 SPATIAL MEMORY •This element can pin points in space and time of the narration which are crutial to the story-almost like a turning point in the story.

•Design has spacial and narrative memories along with them which can be interpreted for experiential movement through the space.

•These deliberately designed memories can be manipulated and contracdicted to evoke feelings of surprise and self reflection.

LOBBY OF SELF REFLECTION •after the movie watching creates a scintillating self-reflection space •this transition space from the cinema theatre will complete the movie watching experience as the user will be able to digest the ideas in the movie by acting as a space of trance.

•It is placed in an appropriate position in the movement path; this may vary, perhaps at the middle or end to gather impact.

•The climax ultimately acquires predominance of a spatial experience and communicates this to the user.

6.4 USER PERSPECTIVES 6.4.1 USER 1- CINEMA BUFF

6.4.1.1 SPOTLIGHT-PRIMACY EFFECT

The spotlight was on me !!!

Only me!

Fig 6.4.1.1 Spotlight The opening element of the sequence is the primacy effect created by the entrance lobby skylight element that symbolizes the spotlight. Leading the user from an ascend and into a descent to find the spotlight acts as the element of surprise here. This sets a benchmark against which we measure what happens later.

6.4.1.2 FOCALISATION- CHAOS LOBBY Let’s go there!!!

No, here!!!

No, here!!!

Gotta go there.

So much to see in such less time!!!

Fig 6.4.1.2 Chaos Lobby The subsequent plot point is focalization which translates into the chaos lobby space that acts as the glue holding all the blocks together and, in a sense, it acts as a knot connecting all plot points together. This can bring about a collective memory and architectural narrative to the crowd.

37

6.4.1.3 RED ARENA-SPATIAL MEMORY

Goodness!!! Thats them... like 20metres from me....

Fig 6.4.1.3 Red Arena This is followed by the elements of spatial memory which is achieved by the central red arena , the lobby of self-reflection in the multiplex block and the exits from all the functional blocks into the walk of fame. This element can pin point the space and time of the narrative which are crucial to the story almost like a turning point in the plot.

6.4.1.4 OPEN SCREENING-CLIMAX

Serene ending to the pilgrimage.

Fig 6.4.1.4 Open screening The final element is the destination or the focal point of the spatial journey. This plot point is metaphorized into the final revelation to the open screening space from the path below the ground. The climax ultimately acquires predominance of a spatial experience and communicates this to the user.

38

6.4.2 USER 2- VIP / CELEBRITY 6.4.2.1 RED STAGE

Hello everyone !!!

(Today , I’m flaunting Sabya Winter Collection ) Fig 6.4.2.1 Red Stage VIP / celebrity is given private access to the red stage from the private VIP access core from the parking. This red stage acts as the stage for the celbrity to absorb fanfare.

6.4.2.2 PRIVATE ENTRY TO FILM FESTIVAL BLOCK

The screening starts in 3 minutes.

I better hurry...

Fig 6.4.2.2 Private access path VIP service core gives the celebrity, the private access to the film festival block , the Red stage and the walk of fame.

39

6.4.2.3 PRIVATE ENTRY TO WALK OF FAME

Finally my moment of truth...

Fig 6.4.2.3 Private access to walk of fame VIP service core gives the celebrity, the private access to the film festival block , the Red stage and the walk of fame.This potion of the walk of fame has aadditional access from the wax museum and opens into shops and the finally the climactic point of Chaos Lobby.

6.4.3 USER 3- GENERIC USER 6.4.3.1 INDIVIDUAL DROP OFF POINTS

Meh

Feels like a movie day.

Fig 6.4.3.1 Individual drop off Individual access drop off points makes the circulation accessible for the generic user who aims to use the functional aspect of the different blocks.

6.4.3.2 MULTIPLEX-LOBBY OF SELF REFLECTION

?

?

? ?

Was the ending open?

But why?

Fig 6.4.3.2 Lobby of self reflection This space acts as a space of transition for the theatre users to assimilate the throughts that arises after viewing a powerful piece of cinema.

6.4.3.3 CENTRAL PLAZA

Lets kill some time. Food ?

Another movie?

Fig 6.4.3.3 Central Plaza Apart from being the VIP attraction, the central red arena also acts as a space that collects users from all the blocks and redirects the users to the commercial block.For a generic user ,this space gives a refreshing meaning to leisure.

The third element of the concept , i.e. the spatial memory is interpreted by the lobby of self reflection in the multiplex block. This element can pin points in space and time of the narration which are crutial to the story-almost like a turning point in the story. Design has spacial and narrative memories along with them which can be interpreted for experiential movement through the space.These deliberately designed memories can be manipulated and contracdicted to evoke feelings of surprise and self reflection. After the movie watching creates a scintillating self-reflection space This transition space from the cinema theatre will complete the movie watching experience as the user will be able to digest the ideas in the movie by acting as a space of trance.

The prime element of the cinematic sequence is metaphorised in the entrance of the museum block. It uses the logic of first impression. A film’s opening sets a benchmark against which we measure what happens later. Architectural narratives are also driven by similar intents of curiosity, B1

suspense and surprise. This can sustain a continuous interest in the spacial interest and foster a sense of attachment to the space, provided , the

B2

curiosity and suspense trigger exciting memories within the users’s mind.
