Abstract

The focus for this thesis project is the need to represent the real or fantasize the ideal in an urban environment with the design of a multi screen movie house. Designing a structure which involves a transition from the real world into one where space and time have been temporarily suspended. Through research, digital technology has advanced sound and projection equipment. Current cinemas throughout St. Paul, lack the guest amenities and visual intensity of the movies shown there. The design of a revolutionary multi screen Movie House would expand cinematic entertainment to the wonderfully energetic St. Paul seven corners area. I believe the City of St. Paul, with an eccentric local client, makes it possible for me to design an exciting, expressionistic and state-of-the-art cinema.
