The Cloister Cinema

Project Details

Through materiality and fine detailing this cinema bridges a gap between modern and traditional design creating a unique and elegant space. The cinema features details reminiscent of gothic architecture which is directly inspired by the original home. By incorporating details from the rest of the home, there is a connection created between the two whilst the cinema remains its own space. The contrast between various textures in the metal work around the room, including the pressed metal ceiling, the gold leaf coffers and the aged brass mesh creates a balance throughout the cinema with relation through materiality despite variations in tone. The metalwork paired with lush and opulent materials creates a moody ambience perfect for a cinema room. The traditional lighting used once again ties back to the original home design. The space is bold and atmospheric, with warm lighting and moody tones the cinematic ambience is elevated and the space is made that much more inviting.
