Rio cinema in Stockholm – 1940`s cinema in transformation

Now I know where to see a movie next time I am in Stockholm. Designstudio 1:2:3 and Kristoffer Sundin have designed the interior and the graphic identity of Rio cinema in Stockholm.. They have carefully transformed it into a modern space, without changing its original appearance. The new aim with the space was to create a design functional for different range of activities. The cinema houses different activities, beside showing films it is a venue for seminars, theater, musical performances, installations, opera shows and other cultural events. The furniture and lighting is adaptable and can be changed into single tables with light over each table, or you can make it in to one large seating group with all the lamps in a cluster. Tables and light are specially designed for this space. Check out Rio`s event program here.
