The Pushinsky cinema hall is historically linked to the city of Moscow and has been a landmark of this city since the first day of its existence. The Pushinsky cinema hall has always served as a link between a closed and strict regime with the rest of the world, having served as the centre of the Moscow International Film Festival and later as the first Russian widescreen multiplex. It has marked the country’s destination from its rise to its fall and again towards its renaissance.
The chosen material for the new layer of the Pushkinsky cinema hall façade is Dupont Corian. It allowed us to create the ice cubic image desired for the building giving a homogenous clear white finish. Simultaneously, corresponds to the long-term performance criteria placed by the design team. Thus, led to a durable and impressive second skin, that due to its flexibility can be formed with long cuts.
