Right from the beginning, the designers had an image of how the ancient scholars played the musical instrument and read in tranquillity, thus adding the ‘bookshop’ element for this design. - Jonathan Leijonhufvud Architectural Photography

Since the advent of sound in cinema, the film score has become an integral part of the movie experience. We were inspired by the film music and used piano strings as the design theme for this project, thus creating a zen and quiet ambience for the interior. For this project, we integrated the functions of the book area to give this new cinema a unique personality. We conveyed all aspects of the entire theater space in the form of ‘strings’, and used this theme to connect the cultural attributes of music, movies and books.
