AMC Studio 30 Theatre - Houston, TX (1997)

"What the design attempts to do in the 110,000 sq. ft. space is simulate a movie studio backlot and the soundstage where guests become part of the action, and the experience "rekindles the magic and memory of movie going."

Elements from sound stages and studio road cases make up the central lobby space along with a guest service desk. Images of Hollywood's glamorous stars of the past add enchantment to the balcony walls. The space is divided into three themed areas that "transport guests into fantastic worlds of Animation, Action/Adventure and Cyberspace." The food concession stands within each area carries through the theme; "Fizz, Sizzle, Pop"; Wildebeest Feast"; and "Quantum Bits." The 30 auditoria are located off the soundstage lobby and within the various themed areas.

The architecture seems to come alive in the Animation area. The space is designed to resemble an animation cel: "flat, two-dimensional, cartoon-like graphics are outlined with black lines, filled with color and applied on an exaggerated scale." The Fizz, Sizzle, Pop concession's identity and blimp directional signs seem to float in a blue sky with flat, cut-out clouds. The setting for Action/ Adventure recalls a rainforest with heavy hanging leaves, bamboo and rock "carved" directional signs. The custom wall covering features petroglyphs of cave people carrying popcorn, megaphones and movie cameras. The fiber optic eyes peering from behind the leaves in the Wildebeest Feast stand change color. They also appear above rock outcroppings down the corridor. Patrons are invited to explore an abstract, futuristic world in Cyberspace where the floor and ceiling are the same color and brushed aluminum columns rise partway to the ceiling. To create the illusion of "endless space." custom light fixtures project beams of light along the walls and backlit graphic images have neon edges. Various colored lights and a high-tech fluorescent green/orange acrylic sign help to define the Quantum Bits concession area in Cyberspace."

Although the outside may look abandoned, I've learned that the light house keeper's home is rather cozy. I enjoy our weekly visits but she always cuts them short, insisting I must get home before dark. I wonder what she's so afraid of..

No other flower has as legendary a history. The rose's dramatic combination of beauty and fragrance has made it a universal obsession, a symbol of spiritual love and physical passion praised in poetry, glorified in art, and venerated in every culture and religion. The Book of the Rose is an exquisite devotion to the flower's ravishing and sometimes audacious presence throughout the centuries. It follows the cultivation of the rose from Persian and Indian gardens to medieval cloisters; from the War of the Roses to the Russian Court of Catherine the Great and the breathtaking gardens of the Empress Josephine. The rich selection of illustrations includes delicate portraits of Indian men and women presenting roses to their lovers, illuminated manuscripts of medieval rose blooms, and paintings that celebrate the rose's beauty - and its erotic intimations - by artists such as Redouté, Fragonard, Renoir, van Gogh, Fantin-Latour, and Beardsley. The Book of the Rose also explores the rose motif in jewelry, porcelain and fabric, on furniture and in fashion, from the textiles of William Morris to the contemporary designs of Ungaro. In addition, a portfolio of glorious rooms illustrates the wide variety of rose themes in interior design. For anyone who has ever grown a rose, given or received a rose, worn a rose pattern or scent, here is a lavish tribute to the world's most celebrated flower.
