A film centre for Vancouver, British Columbia

This Thesis Project began as an attempt to explore the basic principles of Cinema: Light,
Time and Movement. As the project evolved I began to explore and develop various design
ideas. These included: the exploration of voyeuristic qualities within Cinema and Architec
tural ideas based on illusion and rhythm; cinema as a medium; and, geometric maipulations
and how different geometries might co-exist in an attempt to foster an image of diversity
while defocusing the stereotypical idea of school and institution.
The final product consisted of a 36,000 sq. ft. Film Centre, that housed a Film School, Indoor
and Outdoor Cinemas, the Vancouver Film Festival Offices, a multi-media Restaurant and
an Independant Film Studio. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Architecture and Landscape Architecture (SALA), School of / Graduate
