The cinema is one of the anchor and symbol of this huge commercial complex. Because of the SNS, especially Instagram is in a trend among young people, this cinema takes some photo spot for it. CHALLENGE: Because of Tokyo Olympic, construction cost had got very high and we had to make cinema complex unique with very much lower cost. There have two idea. One is at the escalator. We installed many symbolistic blue liner LED lights hanged from ceiling along with the escalator that guests have to use and that makes guests feel futuristic and exited. Blue is also used in lobby as characteristic color. The other is graphics. The LED lights make 3D and symbolistic color. On the theatre floor, at the contrast, has impressive 2D graphics around and they are made by dialogue of movies with mono-tone.
