Luxuriously Refurbished Theatres

The Cineteca Cinema Center Brings Culture to Matadero, Madrid

— May 18, 2012 — Art & Design
The Cineteca Cinema Center was designed by Churtichaga+Quadra-Salcedo Architects. The awe-inspiring theatre space has been transformed from a former slaughterhouse into a cultural cinema space.

Refurbishing an abandoned factory, the Spanish design studio reinforced the building's existing structure and created a warm interior with the use of all-over wooden flooring elements.

Adding a visual focal point to the cinema space, basket-like elements feature a bent, steel-tubed construction and woven framing. These memorable sculptural elements are back-lit, standing out amongst the darkness of the building's dark surrounding interior.

The Cineteca Cinema Center is home to two large theatre spaces, a film archive, a film and television studio, offices, canteen and summer film patio making it the perfect addition to Madrid's hip and culture-infused Matadero neighbourhood.
Trend Themes
1. Refurbished Theatre Spaces - Design studios are finding innovative ways to transform abandoned and unused buildings into cultural cinema spaces.
2. Sustainable Architecture - Using sustainable elements like all-over wooden flooring and back-lit sculptural elements pave the way for sustainable architecture in cinema spaces.
3. Cultural Mechanics - The incorporation of film archives, television studios, and canteens into cinema spaces creates a cultural hub for diverse industries and audiences.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - Design studios can capitalize on the opportunity presented by the trend of refurbished theatre spaces to create sustainable cultural spaces from unused buildings.
2. Film Industry - The incorporation of film archives and television studios into cinema spaces allows for the creation of a cultural hub and a space for creativity and innovation.
3. Hospitality Industry - The incorporation of canteens and summer film patios in cinema spaces paves the way for a new trend in the hospitality industry by providing a unique experience for audiences.
