At their most basic level, architecture and cinema have natural inbuilt affinities. Path, construction; script, and production;--architects and filmmakers proceed down the parallel routes to create their works. Meanwhile, film and architecture are simultaneous in character. The succession of scenes in a montage creates a mental space, while architecture provides physical space. Both architecture and film make use of the sequential movements through space. The purpose of the thesis is to explore the parallels and reciprocal relationship between film and architecture, which will help to bridge these two visual and spatial arts, thus enable us to examine our architectural practice from a different perspective. The thesis is composed of literature research and an urban cinema complex design, both of which were integrated as the exploration of the intimate relationship between film and architecture.
