MOVIE THEATER BUILDING
DESIGN
OBJECTIVES:
•The student will learn to construct a building using various architectural elements.
•The students will work together cooperatively on this hands-on project.
•The student will learn advanced architectural terms, and will learn more about architectural
elements in the construction and engineering industry.
•The student will learn how to identify the physical patterns found in architecture.
•The student will learn to analyze social science concepts while creating a project.
•The student will learn to demonstrate critical thinking skills through problem solving.
•The student will learn how to critique the works of others using: description and judgment.
INTRODUCTION:
• Designing a theater can be an exciting,
challenging, and rewarding experience. A
properly designed cinema can provide a patron
with many years of enjoyable and comfortable
movies.
• Playing the role of an architect allows you, as
the developer, to design around your personal
needs and desires. How would you as an
architect, design your ultimate multiplex and
decide where it best belongs on your newly
acquired piece of land?

PROCEDURE: PART ONE
• Students will design spaces of their theater.
Each space must be diagramed in the forms of
circles.
• The relationships of each space in close
proximity to one another must be established
and presented to the teacher.
• Each space should be proportional in size
comparative to other spaces (the closets and
bathrooms should be the smaller circles).
PROCEDURE: PART TWO
• Transform bubble diagrams to scaled grid
paper in preparation of drafting final
drawings (see bubble to grid).
• Each group will choose a site in which
their development will form a community
(provided by the teacher).
ORAL PRESENTATION:
• Each group will present a brief oral
presentation on their project
demonstrating how they used their
creativity in designing a theater while still
meeting the minimum criteria.
• Refer to evaluation rubric for more
information on grading requirements.
PROJECT CRITERIA:
• Your design must not exceed 25,000 square feet.
• Every design must have, but is not limited to, 2 movie
rooms (auditoriums that seats 200), four bathrooms,
lobby, concession area, waiting area, ticket counter and
ticket taker stands, theater style seats,
• Floor and elevation plans must be to proper scale of
¼”=1’-0”.
• Building must be represented on the site plan provided
by teacher.
• Oral presentations must describe your design process
and finished product.
SITE PLAN:
• Students will design a building that fits the
site plan given. The team must make
decisions about where the front access is
to the building.
• Site planning includes the design of
vehicular and pedestrian flows of traffic.
Taking advantage of main street access or
secondary access (for more privacy) is
essential to the placement of the structure.
SITE PLAN:
LINEAR FLOOR PLAN – Spaces are
arranged along a common/main
corridor (hallway).
CENTRALIZED FLOOR PLAN –
Spaces arranged around a central
area, usually a courtyard.
AXIAL FLOOR PLAN – Spaces
arranged along corridors (hallways)
from a central area in a radial pattern.
COMBINATION FLOOR PLAN
SYSTEMS
The proposed floor plan submitted
for approval must include the
following:
1. Booth configuration drawn to scale, including base dimensions,
heights and locations.
2. Aisle locations and dimensions must be a minimum of four (4) feet
wide.
3. Location and dimensions of all fixtures including, but not limited to,
stages risers, registration areas, lounge areas, entertainment areas,
etc.
4. Location of all exits.
5. Location of all permanent and temporary concession and novelty
stands.
6. Location of all fire safety devices including extinguisher and alarm
stations.
7. Location of all primary entrances.
8. Locations and dimensions of all service desks, including space
allocations for service desks operated by the theater.
9. Location and dimensions of service contractor storage areas.
