Open Village is an arthouse renovated from a decommissioned factory. While the brick façade of the cinema established a visual coherence with the neighboring urban fabric, the cinema’s irregular form and polychromatic exterior instilled the creative space with vibrancy. This new landmark became the cultural destination for events within the village where the cinema is situated.
