Brief information about the project from an architectural point of view: The main idea of the Gdynia Film Center project was creating a pure spatial arrangement of the building. It's location, with the green background of Kamienna Góra, makes a composition of counterweight for the monumental cube of the adjacent Musical Theatre. The building is divided in two main functional zones. The first one consists of studio cinema halls linked with a theme club and is accessible straight from the outside by the "red carpet" pan in the renewed city plaza. The second zone is connected with educational aspects of the Center. Both functions meet in the heart of the building, thanks to an open sculpture-like staircase, that links the cinema entrance hall with the 2nd floor student's forum created as red terrace stairs. An investition accompanying the building of Gdynia Film Center is rail line leading from the plaza to the top of Kamienna Góra, giving a different point of view at the building.
