Meteor Cinema in Guangzhou

Meteor Cinema in Guangzhou

Meteor Cinema is a two-story cinema located in a shopping center in Guangzhou, China, designed by One Plus Partnership Limited.

The process of film production resembles the movement of a meteor. Creating a movie takes years and requires intense effort from a large team of people. Designers wanted to pay tribute to filmmakers through design, reminding viewers of the emotions and efforts invested in making this relatively brief spectacle.

The decoration of all interiors reflects the idea of a meteor shower in one way or another. The most impressive installation is located in the lobby: elongated rectangular elements stretch from floor to ceiling, imitating the motion of a meteor's tail streaking across the sky. To enhance the impact of this bright three-dimensional composition, architects carefully adjusted the length and direction of cubic elements both on computer and on-site, aiming to position each piece at the correct angle for maximum effect. The meteor's tail appears to fall at a very high speed, creating a dramatic contrast with the fact that the ceiling is stable and motionless.
