PROJECT OUTLINE
from "BRIEF"
The aim of this project is to design a social film space and hidden cinema dedicated to young people with an interest in film. This will be a place for people to come together and socialise, meet new people with shared interests, and discover the world of film. The new proposed design will be an immersive experience for visitors, dealing with the space as a journey over time rather than a static design.
It seems that existing cinemas in Glasgow are not always used to their best advantage. Often, independent cinemas are small, and space does not allow for groups of people to come together and socialise before and after films. There is an opportunity in Glasgow to educate people further about film, by introducing a film museum or exhibition space to the cinema. The cinema experience should be welcoming, inclusive and allow for connection and learning.
The design will consider the idea of temporality when it comes to sharing a space with others. The space will allow for visitors to focus on being in the moment, and will be somewhere that a diverse range of people with different stories can converge just for a moment in time.
