Theatrical Foyer: Metal Curtains and Red Velvet

The foyer outside the auditorium abstracts the opulent vocabulary of old theaters: the walls are entirely covered with hanging metal chain curtains, bronze-colored, falling from the ceiling to the floor, with slight movement and reflection. The floor is covered with deep red velvet carpet, a color so rich it approaches burgundy. The ceiling is dark, with only a hidden wall wash light above the chain curtains, allowing the metal to gradually darken from top to bottom. In the center of the space is a round velvet bench without a backrest. There is nothing else. The overall brightness is low, and the material contrast is between hard metal and soft velvet. Avoid: adding crystal chandeliers, walls made with classical moldings, using purple or gold lighting, the appearance of functional facilities such as popcorn counters.

觀眾廳外的前廳,把老戲院的華麗語彙抽象化:牆面是一整片垂掛的金屬鏈簾,銅色,從天花落到地面,有輕微的擺動與反光。地坪鋪深紅的絨毯,顏色濃到接近酒紅。天花是深色的,只在鏈簾上方藏一道洗牆光,讓金屬從上往下漸暗。空間中央擺一張圓形的絨面長凳,沒有靠背。除此之外什麼都沒有。整體亮度低,材質的對比是硬金屬與軟絨布。避免:加入水晶吊燈、牆面做成古典線板、使用紫色或金色的燈光、出現爆米花櫃檯等機能設施。
