finding inspiration cultural hubs > Palace Cinema Shanghai 124 September 2018 hospitalitydesign.com Photo courtesy of JAMES GOLDMAN Found in Shanghai's long-developed Puxi neighborhood, the Palace Cinema by Hong Kong firm 4N Design Architects occupies the top level of a new shopping mall from Singapore developer CapitaLand, with nine distinct theaters connected to the public areas via a sun-filled open atrium. Inspired by film directors of past and present, the design is a whirlwind adventure that takes cues from children's flip books, the story unfolding through undulating timber-pattern metal fins arranged to create dramatic organic forms that transfix moviegoers.http://www.hospitalitydesign.com
