Cinépolis Headquarters in Morelia, Mexico

December 01, 2010 Category: Education, Public Buildings

The Cinépolis Headquarters designed by KMD Architects is located in Morelia, Mexico. Cinépolis was designed to be a workplace that embraces creativity and the vision of the company for which it was designed. This campus includes a sculptural centerpiece, a four-storey structure in which the third and fourth stories are cantilevered over the lower two. At 41 metres long, it’s one of the world’s largest inhabited cantilevered spans, perched atop a hill on the outskirts of Morelia.

Occupying just 10 percent of the hillside, the four campus low-rise buildings maximise the site respecting the surroundings, creating plazas, terraces and gardens. The sustainable design features natural lighting, a living green roof, sun shading and opening windows for natural ventilation, reducing the need of heating and cooling. The building regulates air conditioning, light and water with an automatic system.
