올해로 제 16회를 맞이하는 영화제에 새로운 주인공이 등장했다.
레드카펫에 올라서 있는 모습은 화려하고 당당하며 유연하다.
오스트리아 건축가 쿱 힘멜브라우의 디자인에서 탄생한 시네마센터가 바로
그 주인공이다. 건축가의 말처럼 공간은 프로그램을 대변해서 사용자에게
이야기 해주어야 하며, 그와 동시에 자기의 색을 확실히 전달해 주어야 한다.
미디어 바다를 형상화한 유기적인 형태의 led가 우리에게 말해주고 싶은 것은
또다른 공간확장의 방향성으로 공간과 사용자간의 소통을 제안하는 것이지,
화려한 불빛과 수려한 형상이 주는 심미적인 아름다움만은 아닐 것이다.
말도 많고 탈도 많은 프로젝트라는 것을 왠만한 분들은 알고 계실 것이다.
하지만 확실한 것은 시네마센터가 부산을 대표하고 나아가 세계를 대표하는
시네마스페이스로써 중요한 랜드마크가 될 것이라는 점이다.

As part of the festivities Wolf D. Prix, the co-founder of the Austrian architecture studio COOP HIMMELB(L)AU received as the first architect in South Korea the honorary citizenship of the city of Busan from the hands of Mayor Hur Nam-sik. The award is the highest recognition conferred by the city to personalities who have promoted Busan’s standing in Korea or abroad. Just a few days ahead of the start of the 16th Busan International Film Festival Wolf D. Prix in company with Hur Nam-sik will inaugurate the COOP HIMMELB(L)AU exhibition “Architecture is the Media and the Media is the Message” and give a lecture on “The Possibility of the Impossible“.
After winning the competition for this project in 2005 construction started in the same year. The roof’s ceiling surface is completely equipped with LED projectors which allows for unique visual spectacles highlighting the Busan Cinema Center. The dynamically illuminated ceiling will serve as the center’s communication platform with visitors and passers-by. A free span of 85 meters and a roof surface of 60 x 120 meters makes the roof the worldwide largest cantilevered roof. The complex comprises about 60.000 m2 of performance, event, gastronomy and administrative spaces and has a capacity of up to 6,800 visitors.
The upcoming events of the opening festivities:
04 October 2011: Opening of the COOP HIMMELB(L)AU exhibition “Architecture is the Media and the Media is the Message” at the Busan Design Center
05 October 2011: “The Possibility of the Impossible”, lecture by Wolf D. Prix at the Busan Design Center
06 October 2011: Opening of the 16th Busan International Film Festivals BIFF
Busan Cinema Center / Busan International Film Festival, Busan, South Korea (2005 – 2011)
The basic concept of this project was the discourse about the overlapping of open and closed spaces and of public and private areas.
While the movie theaters are located in a mountain-like building, the Center’s public space is shared between an outdoor cinema and a huge public space which is called Red Carpet Area – i.e. reception area.
The Red Carpet Area is actually three-dimensional: across a ramp which leads along a double cone the guests of honour reach the reception hall. Each of the two areas is overarched by a huge roof, one of them measuring 60 x 120 meters – the size of a soccer field – and cantilevering 85 meters.
The project, Wolf D. Prix / COOP HIMMELB(L)AU’s first in South Korea, addresses the theme of the roof as an architectural element – a topic which COOP HIMMELB(L)AU has been concerned with for a long time. Already in the Renaissance and the Baroque era the roof is transformed into a cupola, thereby achieving a particular significance. But it was Oscar Niemeyer and Le Corbusier who define the roof not anymore as a mere element of protection, but as a frame for the most diverse concepts. In Niemeyer’s house in Rio de Janeiro the roof is no longer following the floor plan, but is framing the view on the surroundings and nature. The roof of the Unité d’Habitation in Marseille of Le Corbusier is itself a landscape through its sculptural articulation.
Based on these ideas COOP HIMMELB(L)AU developed the roofs of the BMW Welt in Munich and of the Busan Cinema Center. The construction as a column-free roof covering a space comes closest to the idea of a “flying” roof, which is further differentiated by its three-dimensionally articulated ceiling and therefore not only a horizontal projection screen.
Concept
The Busan Cinema Center – A multifunctional urban plaza
COOP HIMMELB(L)AU’s
design for the Busan Cinema Center and home of the Busan International
Film Festival (BIFF) provides a new intersection between public space,
cultural programs, entertainment, technology and architecture creating a
vibrant landmark within the urban landscape.
LED saturated outdoor roof elements acting as a virtual sky connect building-objects and plaza-zones into a continuous, multifunctional public urban space.
Media, technology, entertainment and leisure are merged in an open-architecture of changeable and tailored event experiences. The result is a responsive and changing space of flows acting as an urban catalyst for cultural exchange and transformation.
Project Description
The concept envisions an urban
plaza of overlapping zones including an Urban Valley, a Red Carpet Zone,
a Walk of Fame and the BIFF Canal Park. The urban plaza is formed by
building and plaza elements sheltered by two large roofs that are
enabled with computer programmed LED outdoor ceiling surfaces. The
larger of the roofs includes a column-free cantilever of 85 meters over a
multifunctional Memorial Court event plaza. The urban zones of the
complex are formed by individual and recognizable building objects
placed below the outdoor roofs. The building objects contain theater,
indoor and outdoor cinemas, convention halls, office spaces, creative
studios and dining areas in a mixture of sheltered and linked indoor and
outdoor public spaces. The design of these spaces supports flexible,
hybrid functionality that can be used both during the annual festival
period and day-to-day use without interruption.
The urban zones defined by functional surfaces in plan are further articulated in a sectional dialogue between stone-clad “ground” forms of the Cinema Mountain and BIFF Hill, and the metal and LED clad “sky” elements of the roofs. The materiality of the building objects differentiates the spaces and articulates the architectural concept. Through their shape, placement and materiality, the various parts create a dynamic and informal tension between the ground and the roof.
Architecture and Cinema – the Main Roof
The dynamic LED lighting surface covering the undulating ceilings of the outdoor roof canopies gives the Busan Cinema Center
its symbolic and representative iconographic feature. Artistic lighting
programs tailored to events of the BIFF or the Municipality of Busan
can be created by visual artists and displayed across the ceiling in
full motion graphics, creating a lively urban situation at night, but
also visible during the day.
Imbedded in the architecture the lighting surfaces serve as a communication platform for the content of the Busan Cinema Center. Light as art, which is at the very nature of cinema, creates a unique and memorable atmosphere for the public urban plaza and architecture of the BCC.
Double Cone, Café and Roof Restaurant
The Double Cone is the symbolic landmark entrance element to the Busan Cinema Center
and serves as the connective element between the Cinema Mountain and
the BIFF Hill. Designed as a steel web drum on top of a series of radial
concrete fin walls, the Double Cone also is the only vertical
structural support for the large cantilevered roof acting as a large,
singular column.
During day-to-day use, the ground level of the
Double Cone contains a public café with outdoor seating, and the upper
level links to a world-class restaurant, bar and lounge within the roof
volume with views overlooking the APEC park and river beyond.
During the festival the Double Cone marks the Red Carpet Zone and VIP entrance to the “Busan Cinema Center”, and can be used as a pre-event space for VIP’s on the ground level, or as a pre-staging area for transfer to the Red Carpet procession to the outdoor cinema stage, or to the upper levels of the Cinema Mountain or BIFF Hill foyers via the red carpet spiralling ramp and bridges suspended from the roof.
Cinema Mountain
The Cinema Mountain is a
multifunctional building containing both a 1,000 seat multifunctional
theater with fly-tower and full backstage support, and a three-screen
multiplex comprised of a 400-seat and two 200-seat Cinemas. Separate
entrances and foyers are provided for theater and cinema respectively,
however the foyers and circulation are designed so that they can be
combined depending on operational preferences.
Complete structural separation between the theater and the cinemas ensures optimal noise isolation for the theater space, which is designed as a first-class, flexible hall with seating on two levels and optimal sight lines and adjustable acoustics. A flexible proscenium type stage with side stages and fly-tower accommodates movable acoustical towers used to close down the stage volume for concerts and operatic theater, but can be easily moved for theater, musicals and other staged events. The stage includes a fore-stage lift that can provide additional seating, an orchestra pit or stage extension as preferred. Horizontally tracking curtains along the walls of the audience chamber can be hidden or deployed to adjust the acoustics of the space.
Urban Valley / Outdoor Cinema
The Urban Valley combines a flexible flat ground surface and large
stepped tribunes of the BIFF Hill as seating for a 4,000 seat Outdoor
Cinema. The Valley is sheltered by a large sculpted outdoor roof with an
LED ceiling surface and is oriented towards a flexible stage and screen
area on the outside of the Eastern façade of the Cinema Mountain.
Accommodation for purpose built projection screens, stages, loudspeaker
and lighting arrays are provided allowing for exterior performances to
share the interior theater’s backstage facilities.
BIFF Hill
The BIFF Hill is a ground surface
formation creating the tribune seating space of the outdoor cinema and
accommodating the concourse, the convention hall, the BIFF-center, the
BIFF-offices and the visual media center. Given the flexible
organization of the ground plan, it can be easily adapted to the
different requirements during festival and day-to-day usage.
Red Carpet Zone
During the BIFF festival, or for other special events, the Red Carpet
Zone is created by a special drop-off and media-event processional
entrance at the Double Cone entrance element. A red carpet can be
extended from the Double Cone event space and photo position to the
south through the park and along a pier. VIP’s can enter from limousines
along the street edge, or arrive by boat from the pier. Various options
are provided for the red carpet circulation from the Double Cone to the
different event and performance spaces depending on the scenario
preferred, including a vibrant spiralling ramp from the staging level of
the event space to the VIP restaurant lounge of the upper roof or to
the BIFF Hill and Cinema Mountain on upper levels of the foyers. During
non-event periods the Red Carpet Zone acts as the symbolic entryway into
the Busan Cinema Center complex.
Memorial Court & Walk of Fame
The Walk of
Fame contains the Memorial Court as a public plaza. Our proposal is to
imbed sources in the ground surface projecting holographic images of the
stars, directors, producers and the like who have been made a part of
the Walk of Fame. Their avatars inhabit the memorial court as permanent
residents; however their programs can be changed to show variable
aspects of information over time or in relation to specific BIFF-
events.
During non-event times the Memorial Court is used as a grand entryway to the Cinema Mountain and contains an outdoor dining area of the Double Cone Café overlooking the park and water beyond.
Due to the column-free sheltered roof above, the public plaza of the Memorial Court is a multi-functional event space that can be utilized for BIFF- or Busan City- events without interrupting the day-to-day activities of the Busan Cinema Center, or simultaneously with other events in the additional spaces.
BIFF Canal Park
The BIFF Canal Park is proposed as an extension of the open network of
public programs into the planned riverside park, and as a linking
element between the river and the cinema complex. A new pedestrian
footbridge is proposed to connect the Busan Cinema Center
site with the park across the Boulevard to the South connecting the
Double Cone with the APEC Park. An additional outdoor event ‘bowl’ is
proposed surrounded by canals that can provide public and private boat
access to the project site. Space for a future extension of the Busan Cinema Center project is proposed as an island among the canals, further integrating the cultural functions of the Busan Cinema Center project with the surrounding public space and landscape environment.
