Notes

Description

The recessed lobby draws the moviegoer into the space with neon tube strips on the ceiling focussing on the entrance and with the walls of floor to ceiling glass. The glass walls allow a view of the interior which glows at night. The box office with its curvilinear shape, also illuminated, and its sleek walls, plays to the fantasy of the moviegoers.
