RE: Knowing the history of the old Pichincha cinema (Fundacultura) [Eng - Esp]

in Architecture+Design29 days ago

Hello @belkyscabrera. Like human beings, it's also interesting to witness buildings and structures embracing past lives. As a former movie house, the Fundacultura's eventual evolution into a cultural landmark keeps your local architectural heritage alive. I think the transformation was a great move due to the spaciousness of the place for public gatherings and other important events where people from all walks of life can connect with their homegrown roots. Have a marvelous weekend! ☺️

Thanks for Elevating Architecture and Design with Hive!

Hi @storiesoferne , despite the years the building is very well preserved, I imagine it must have great stories to tell, the design I like. especially the facade and its decorative paintings with horizontal and vertical lines that create a lovely visual effect, the Pichincha cinema must have been very beautiful in its time of splendor and an important meeting point for the people of the city, although its current use is different, it maintains the essence of congregating many people and promoting culture in the region through the realization and dissemination of various activities aimed at groups of the population; children,youth and adults, who find in these spaces a place to develop their talents and make known the cultural diversity of the state and the country.

Greetings and blessings!
