About United Cinemas Fukuoka Momochi Kinokompleks

United Cinemas Fukuoka Momochi on kinokompleks, mis asub kaubanduskeskuses Fukuokas, Jaapanis. Sisekujundus katab 5057,99 ruutmeetrit ja hõlmab üksteist saali kokku 1674 istekohaga. Kõrge fuajeelagi kannab ülavalgustust, mis imiteerib päikesevalgust ja langeb pehmelt spetsiaalse krohvviimistlusega seintele. Sissepääsuala madal lagi loob kontrasti suure avatud saaliga, mis on hoitud vaba igasugusest sildistusest. Rahulikud ja rafineeritud materjalid asendavad kinodes tavapäraselt kasutatavat erksat stiili. Sisekujunduse eesmärk on muuta filmivaatamine vaikseks ja erakordseks elamuseks.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: High ceiling like a cathedral pours light on the lobby, and huge volume of space makes us feel silence and solemn.
The designers tried dispel the old-type-image of Japanese movie theatre by adapting materials that usually not used in theatre, lighting works, and space volume.
Unlike the other countries like United States or Korea, watching movie is not very familiar with Japanese yet. “Make a experience of small special event of watching movie superior.” The designers designed the space hotel liked to feel calm and luxual.

Production Technology: Having the good relationship with the shopping mall which contains City Library was the beginning of this project. People who visit the building are highly sensitive and full of intellectual curiosity. Considering the movies as intellectual content, cinemas can be place satisfies such people as libraries or Museums, not just a place watching movies. Such place must be cozy and comfortable for adults but not like uplifting and exciting that was usual interior design for cinemas.
Design Challenge: We planned to gently shine the walls of a special plastering finish with the architecture of a large ceiling space and the top light of artificial light imitating natural light.
Research: We controlled the surprises and emotions that is made by the gap between the low ceiling of the approach and the large space not messed by information, such as publicity or signage. We revised over and over to control the gaze.
Also, we have made the arrangement of top-light with sunshine overflow by artificial light. To make it natural, big number of powerful instruments with subtle angle of enlighting was demanded because we had to put them on beside inside the cealing.
Inspiration: Sophisticated, classy, and magnificence are the concept of this project.
Fukuoka pref., this cinema located, is one of the large metropolitan city in Japan and people living or visiting here are highly sophisticated. We United Cinemas, making the cinema complex adapts design snuggle the town located, tried make it loved by such people high sense. Also, “the sky” is the concept of 4th floor so the designers tried the guests feel outer space.
Project Duration: The project started in 2016 and finished in 2019 in Fukuoka, JAPAN.
Fukuoka prefecture has a population of 1.5 million people. This cinemacomplex is located in the shopping center of an exclusive residential area close to the coast of this town. The baseball dome　capacity of 38,500 people and 2 tower apartments are going to adjacent to the shopping center.
Operation Flow: "Make Lifestyle Better" is the concept of the mall merchandising so it was completely over-rap of ours. Also "Yahuoku! Dome", the baseball stadium, locates next to the mall so this area gives not only one but complex entertainment for people.
