This cinema in Southern Sydney, completed in 2015, in a newly renovated and developed Westfield Mall, explores a bold graphic imagery unique to this cinema.
The graphic was guided in colour by the bold primary colour branding of EVENT cinemas and notions of historic cinema graphics.
The red curtain image of the ‘early’ cinemas and theatre, has been redefined as a macro digital graphic, billowing down the concourse walls, leading the viewer to the various cinemas.
The candy bar-self serve, defined by walls lined with large format 3mm Laminam black glass tiles with the multi-coloured printed striped acrylic panels overhead.
It is loud, colourful, and a candy world.
The number panels into the cinemas have been influenced by the ‘old newsreel’ countdown numbering, while the geometric reverse coffer-boxes define entrances to Ticketing, Gold class, V max, and GA cinemas.
The Gold Class lounge is designed with luxury and elegance in mind.
Brass finishes and detailing create the atmosphere with bespoke lighting accentuating spaces.
