The design concept of the Changsha Jinyi Cinema derives from the ‘place shifting’ martial arts technique comprehended by the invincible heroes. In the movies, these masters with extremely high martial arts skills can travel from place to place quickly. Sometimes the audience could only take a glimpse of their shadows because of such a high speed of movement.

The designers use coherent lines to express this fast shifting movement. The lines in the lobby extends from the wall to the floor, which increase the depthness of the entire lobby space. The tube-shaped lightings hanging in various heights from the ceiling act as if the sceneries that are disappearing in front of the masters’ eyes when they travel quickly on the top of the buildings or trees. They could disappear in the blink of an eye like magic.
